A., B., C., D., are NOT true. I think this is a trick question. Lol
Triangle A
hypotenuse: 3y + x
leg: y - x
Triangle B
hypotenuse: y + 5
leg: x + 5
Congruency => 3y + x = y + 5 and y - x = x + 5
Solve the system
3y + x = y + 5 -> 2y + x = 5
y - x = x + 5 -> y - 2x = 5
2y + x = 5
-2y + 4x = -10
5x = -5
x = -1
y = (5 -(-1)) / 2 = 6/2 = 3
Verify:
hypotenuses
3y + x = 9 - 1 = 8
y + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8
Legs:
y - x = 3 -(-1) = 3 + 1 = 4
x + 5 = -1 + 5 = 4.
Then both hypotenuses and both legs are congruent.
Answer: x = -1 and y = 3
Answer:
3:5 Is the ratio because there are five pieces of cheese.
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 12 pieces, then you can add 4 and 3 together and get 7 and then you can take 7 from 12 and get 5 which is how many cheese pieces there are. Now you know that there are 3 slices of pepperoni and 5 pieces of cheese. Therefore the ratio is 3:5.
-4=w-6
-4+6=w
2=w
Therefore, w equals 2.
Answer by JKismyhusbandbae: expression 2 and expression 1
Look at the four expressions. Simplify any expressions that can be simplified to see which two are equivalent.
8v × 30v = ( 8 × 30) × ( v × v) = 
Since expression 2 can be simplified to expression 1, they are equivalent.
