Answer:

Not congruent; not congruent; congruent; congruent; not congruent; not congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of △ABC, BC, is 2 units. The height of △ABC, extending from A to BC, is 3 units. This means that any triangle congruent to this will have a base of 2 and a height of 3.

△MNP has a base of 2; however, its height (from M to NP) is 4 units. Therefore they are not congruent.

△EFG has a base of 2 and a height of 4; it and △ABC are not congruent.

△STU has a base of 2 and a height of 3; it is congruent to △ABC.

△EFG has a base of 2 and a height of 4, just as △MNP; they are congruent.

Since △STU is congruent to △ABC, and we know that △EFG is not congruent to △ABC, we know that △EFG is not congruent to △STU.

Since △MNP is congruent to △EFG, and △EFG is not congruent to △STU, then △MNP is not congruent to △STU.

blagie [28]

26/4=6.50

6.45=6.45

6and 2/5=6.40

50/8=6.25

so it should be

least- greatest

50/8, 6 & 2/5, 6.45, 26/4

What is the volume of a cube that has sides 9.2 inches long?

anzhelika [568]

The volume of a cube is V=x³ where x is the side length. The volume of a cube can also be written as V=lwh, where l is length, w is width and h is height. since the given side length to us is 9.2, we can put that into the formula.
V=9.2³, or V=9.2*9.2*9.2
V=778.688in³

The Nuthouse offers a mixture of soy nuts and almonds, Almonds

elena55 [62]

Answer:

14 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.

<h3>Solution</h3>

x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation

7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation

140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify

21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides

14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5

14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.

<em>Additional comment</em>

There are many ways to solve a system of two linear equations. The attachments shows a matrix solution using a suitable calculator. It tells us that x=6 and y=14, as we found above.
