We know that the two angles are congruent (equal in measure), so we take the written out descriptions of the angles and convert them to equations that we set equal to each other.


"Three more than twice a number" = 2x + 3

"54.5 less than three times the number" = 3x - 54.5


2x + 3 = 3x - 54.5

Add 54.5 to both sides

2x + 57.5 = 3x

Subtract 2x from both sides

57.5 = x


Now we plug in 57.5 in the original equations to get the measure of each angle.

2(57.5) + 3 = 118 degrees

3(57.5) - 54.5 = 118 degrees

As we already knew, the angles are congruent.


P.S.: Nowhere in the prompt does it say anything about a triangle, just that we have a pair of congruent angles. Be sure to read each prompt carefully.

Triangle ABC is shown Translate Triangle ABC 5 units left and 4 units up and reflect it over the x-axis​
tekilochka [14]

Here is my process for solving this.

First I drew arrows that indicated I was moving the whole triangle 5 units to the left.

*Look at first attachment*

Then I drew another triangle using those new points. (The new triangle is in pink)

*Look at second attachment*

Then I drew arrows that moved this new triangle 4 units up. (The new arrows are in pink)

*Look at third attachment*

Then I drew the new triangle in blue using the new points.

*Look at fourth attachment*

Then I mirrored / reflected the triangle over the x axis (the horizontal line) In green.

*Look at fifth attachment*

The fifth attachment in green is the final product! Hope that helps.

amid [387]

Answer:

5 stickers were put in each bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a total of 56 presents and 7 gift bags. If she puts three pencils in each bag, 7 times 3 is 21. 56 presents minus 21 pencils is 35 presents left. 35 divided by 7 is 5, so there are 5 stickers in each bag.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

C.(3|-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vector:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\3\end{array}\right]

The transformation Matrix is:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1\\-1&0\end{array}\right]

The image of the vector after applying the transformation will be:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&1\\-1&0\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\3\end{array}\right]\\\\=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0*4+1*3\\-1*4+0*3\end{array}\right]\\\\=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3\\-4\end{array}\right]

The correct option is C
