Answer:

B. ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC

Step-by-step explanation

Step -1 In ΔABD and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DAB=∠CAD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBA=∠CDA =90 degree, and

∠BDA=∠DCA (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -2 In ΔDBC and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DCB=∠ACD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBC=∠ADC =90 degree, and

∠CDB=∠CAD (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔDBC similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -3 In ΔABD and ΔDBC (from figure).

∠BDA=∠BCD (because , ∠ACD=ADB from stap-1 and ∠ACD=∠BCD from figure) ,

∠DBA=∠CBD =90 degree, and

∠BAC=∠BDC (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔDBC (by AAA similarity theorem).

In the above step- ΔABD similar to ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to ΔADC and ΔABD similar to ΔDBC.

Hence ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to each other in the given figure.

Solve the system of equations
IceJOKER [234]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

c) there are infinitely many solutions

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Add x to the <em>first equation</em> to put it in standard form:

... x + y = 3

Divide the <em>second equation</em> by the common factor of all terms, 2, to put it in standard form:

... x + y = 3

These two equations describe the same line. Every point on the line is a solution to both equations, so there are infinitely many solutions. (We say these equations are "dependent.")

A car rental company charges $10 a day and 17 cents per mile to rent their cars. If the total charge for a 2-day rental were $61
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

245 miles driven.

Step-by-step explanation:

A car rental company charges $10 a day and 17 cents per mile to rent their cars. 17 cents = 0.17 dollars

Let x be the number of miles and y be the number of days

total change =0.17x  + 10y

Given total change is 61.65 and number of days = 2

plug in the values and find out the number of miles

61.65 = 0.17 x + 2(10)

61.65 = 0.17 x + 20

subtract 20 on both sides

41.65 = 0.17x

Divide by 0.17 on both sides

x = 245

245 miles driven.

For f(x) = 2x + 1 find each value. <br> f(6) <br> f(3) <br> f(−5)
sertanlavr [38]
F(6) = 2(6) + 1
= 12 +1
= 13

f(3) = 2(3) + 1
= 6 + 1
= 7

f(-5) = 2(-5) + 1
= -10 + 1
= -9
