Answer:

Option B Yes by AAA

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent

$\frac{HM}{MK}=\frac{GM}{MJ}$

substitute the values and verify

$\frac{8}{12}=\frac{6}{9}$

simplify

$\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3}$ -------> is true

therefore

The triangles are similar by AAA------> the three angles are congruent

Hey! Can someone check my answers?

The greatest common factor is the biggest number taken from the values.

Q1. The answer is <span>A. 5y^6
</span>
$20 y^{9} +5 y^{6}= 4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}$
Since $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ , then $x^{9}= x^{3}* x^{6}$

Back to our expression:
$4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}=4*5 y^{3}*y^{6}+5 y^{6}=4 y^{3}*5y ^{6}+ 5y ^{6}*1=5 y^{6} (4y ^{3} +1)$
The greatest common factor is thus $5 y^{6}$

Q2. The answer is <span>D. 12xy^2
</span>
$12x y^{5}+60 x^{4} y^{2} -24 x^{3} y^{3}=12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}$
We will use the rule $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ to factorise the exponents:
$12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}= \\ =12x*y^{2}*y^{3}+5*12*x* x^{3} *y^{2}-2*12x* x^{2} *y*y^{2}= \\ =12xy^{2}*y^{3}+12xy^{2}*5 x^{3} -12xy^{2}*2 x^{2} y= \\ =12xy^{2}(y^{3}+5 x^{3}-2 x^{2} y)$
The greatest common factor is thus $12xy^{2}$

A single tree produces about 2.6 × 10² lb of oxygen each year. The Amazon rainforest has about 3.9 X 10^11 trees.

Ymorist [56]

$(2.6\times10^2) \times (3.9\times10^{11}) = 1.014\times10^{14}$

$1.014\times10^{14}$ <---How much is produced by all the trees in a year.
They want how much each day so divide by 365

$\frac{1.014\times10^{14}}{365} = 2.77808\times10^{11}$
$2.77808\times10^{11}$ <---answer per day

Answer:

Plot points at (0,1) and (-3,3) and draw a line going through both points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by graphing the y intercept.

y=mx+b

m is the slope. b is the y intercept. Since the equation is y=-2/3x+1, we can conclude the y intercept is 1. We graph a point at (0,1).

If you didn't know the y intercept is where the line intercepts the y-axis.

Now, from the point (0,1) we go up 2 and to the left 3 as it is a negative slope. We reach (-3,3). Plot a point there. Then draw a line going through both points. There's your line!
