Answer:

D. segment TU is proportional to segment WX and ∠S is congruent to ∠V

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, triangles STU is similar to triangle VWX.

Now, when two triangles are similar, the order of the letters is important and so, the corresponding angles are congruent (equal) and the corresponding sides are proportional.

So, as ΔSTU is similar to ΔVWX.

ST is proportional to VW and TU is proportional to WX

∠S is congruent to ∠V and ∠U is congruent to ∠X.

Therefore, according to the options, we see that side TU is proportional to side WX and ∠S is congruent to ∠V.

Hence, option D is correct.

Answer:

Solution of equation ( q ) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given an equation that is 3 ( q - 7 ) = 27 and we have asked to solve this equation that means to find the value of  q .

Solution : -

$\quad \: \longmapsto \: 3(q - 7) = 27$

Step 1 : Solving parenthesis :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q - 21 = 27$

Step 2 : Adding 21 on both sides :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q - \cancel{ 21} + \cancel{21} = 27 + 21$

On further calculations we get :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q = 48$

Step 3 : Dividing by 3 from both sides :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \: \frac{ \cancel{3}q}{ \cancel{3}} = \cancel {\frac{48}{3} }$

On further calculations we get :

$\quad \: \longmapsto \: \pink{\boxed{\frak{q = 16}}}$

Therefore, solution of equation ( q ) is 16 .

Verifying : -

Now we are very our answer by substituting value of q in the given equation . So ,

3 ( q - 7 ) = 27

3 ( 16 - 7 ) = 27

3 ( 9 ) = 27

27 = 27

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, Verified.

Therefore, our solution is correct .

Which number is in the solution set of the inequality 4x + 4 > 36

nata0808 [166]

Step-by-step explanation:

4x > 36-4

4x > 32 (divide both sides of the inequality by 4 )

4x ÷ 4 > 32 ÷ 4

x > 8
