Mathematics
1 answer:
adoni [48]3 years ago

Answer:

  B. Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that has a negative "rise" (vertical change) for a positive "run" (horizontal change) has a negative slope. The slope is calculated from rise/run, so if the signs of rise and run are different, the slope is negative.

Any line that goes downward to the right has negative slope.

_____

Any line that goes upward to the right has positive slope.

This is a little long, but it gets you there.

  1. ΔEBH ≅ ΔEBC . . . . HA theorem
  2. EH ≅ EC . . . . . . . . . CPCTC
  3. ∠ECH ≅ ∠EHC . . . base angles of isosceles ΔEHC
  4. ΔAHE ~ ΔDGB ~ ΔACB . . . . AA similarity
  5. ∠AEH ≅ ∠ABC . . . corresponding angles of similar triangle
  6. ∠AEH = ∠ECH + ∠EHC = 2∠ECH . . . external angle is equal to the sum of opposite internal angles (of ΔECH)
  7. ΔDAC ≅ ΔDAG . . . HA theorem
  8. DC ≅ DG . . . . . . . . . CPCTC
  9. ∠DCG ≅ ∠DGC . . . base angles of isosceles ΔDGC
  10. ∠BDG ≅ ∠BAC . . . .corresponding angles of similar triangles
  11. ∠BDG = ∠DCG + ∠DGC = 2∠DCG . . . external angle is equal to the sum of opposite internal angles (of ΔDCG)
  12. ∠BAC + ∠ACB + ∠ABC = 180° . . . . sum of angles of a triangle
  13. (∠BAC)/2 + (∠ACB)/2 + (∠ABC)/2 = 90° . . . . division property of equality (divide equation of 12 by 2)
  14. ∠DCG + 45° + ∠ECH = 90° . . . . substitute (∠BAC)/2 = (∠BDG)/2 = ∠DCG (from 10 and 11); substitute (∠ABC)/2 = (∠AEH)/2 = ∠ECH (from 5 and 6)
  15. This equation represents the sum of angles at point C: ∠DCG + ∠HCG + ∠ECH = 90°, ∴ ∠HCG = 45° . . . . subtraction property of equality, transitive property of equality. (Subtract ∠DCG+∠ECH from both equations (14 and 15).)

T models the temperature (in degrees Celsius) in New York City when it's t hours after midnight on a given day. Match each state
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Please check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to do a matching.

We shall be matching the given statements with the features we have on the graph

Hence we shall be looking closely at the graph to answer the questions.

The y-intercept is the point at which the graph touches the y-axis

And it was at -3 degrees celsius at the beginning of the day.

The temperature was above zero between 8am and 8pm. The matching statement is that it is increasing or decreasing interval

We can see that the graph rose from 8am before it finally comes to zero at 8pm

Positive or negative interval matches with it was getting warmer between 2am and 2pm.

While temperature was lowest at 2am, we can see a peak at 2pm.

the ratio of white pens to green pens is 2 to 8. how many green pens are there if there are 18 white pens?
NISA [10]
There are 72 green pens.

There is 9 times as many white pens from 2 to 18, so there has to be 9 times as many green pens because of the ratio. 9 times 8 is 72.
