Tonya and Pearl each completed a separate proof to show that alternate interior angles AKL and FLK are congruent. Who completed

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Tonya proof is correct
and Pearl proof is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

AKL and GKB are obviously congruent. But the reasons given are different, One of the justification is Vertical Angles Theorem, and the other is Adjacent Angles.

But the correct justification is the Vertical Angles Theorem, because the angles are Vertically away from each other, or the angles are at opposite sides of each other. Which is when Vertical Angles Theorem is applied.
Making Tonya correct since that was the answer he given.

The definition of Adjacent Angles is incorrect, this Theorem is used when the angles are Adjacent to each other. When the angles are on the same line as the other angle, is when the definition of Adjacent Angles is applied. Not in this situation

The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

kari74 [83]

The river flows at 2 miles per hour. This is the speed of the current, or the speed at which the water itself is moving.

The mass of the particles moving in river is proportional to the sixth power of 2, or $2^6 = 64$ miles per hour. So, if x is the mass of the particle, then the speed is modeled by an inverse relationship $x * 2^6 = k$ , for some constant k.

For particles that are 15 times the usual mass, the speed of the river itself must increase for the particles to travel at the same speed as before. The mass of the particles is still proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river, but the speed of the river can no longer be 2 miles per hour. It is some speed y, which we are solving for.

So, the key here is proportional. We can set up two proportions and cross multiply.

$\dfrac{x}{2^6} = \dfrac{15x}{y^6} \\ (x)(y^6)=(2^6)(15x)$

Cancelling our x's (because we don't need to solve for them), we have

$y^6 = 15(2^6) = 15(64)=960$

To solve for y, we must take the sixth root of both sides, or raise both sides to the one-sixth power.

$\sqrt[6]{y^6} = \sqrt[6]{960}$

Using a calculator, we see that $\sqrt[6]{960} = 3.14 \ miles \ per \ hour$ .
