All right...before we begin, let's lay some ground rules about the postulate your teacher asks for in every problem. <em>If you already know what they are, skip this paragraph...</em>

A postulate is a statement that claims how the triangles are congruent from looking at the paper. For example, on number 2 we have three sides of the triangle so we would use the postulate SSS (side, side, side). However, number one we would use SAS (side, angle, side) because we see the angle square showing it is a 90-degree angle.
Let's begin! (I haven't done triangles in a while so I apologize in advance if some of my answers might be incorrect on the congruent (yes or no) part of it.)

1.
A) From a visual perspective, we can see the triangles are congruent.
B) ABE = CDE because they are the corresponding points.
C) We can use SAS for the postulate.

2.
A) Yes, they are congruent.
B) OLE = OVE
C) We can use SSS for their postulate.

3.
A) Yes, they are congruent.
B) AWT = ERT
C) We can use SAS for the postulate.

4.
A) I believe the triangles are congruent. You might want to check me on that.
B) GFE = FGH
C) SSS

5.
A) They are congruent because if IH bisects it, it is directly in the middle. So, we know that WH = HS and IH = IH (duh.) and their angles match.
B) WHI = SHI
C) SAS

6.
A) This one is intriguing because it would state above the shape "LE bisects LGUE." I'm going to take that it isn't exactly in the middle, but I am still going to say it is congruent.
B) LGE = EUL
C) ASA

7.
A) Yes, they are definitely congruent.
B) RTU = TRS
C) SSS (We have nothing that indicates angles.)

8.
A) Yes, they are congruent.
B) YWV = VZY
C) We can use SAS. (Might want to check that one.)

9.
A) I would say this one is NOT congruent.
B) There are only two points. One way is HT = MA
C) They are not congruent, you can not use a postulate. However, if you teacher insists on putting one, I would use SAS.

Once again, I would be careful about my answers. I haven't worked with triangles in a few years. If my math is incorrect, or I didn't give the answer you were looking for, please let me know. However, if my math is on point, please consider marking as <em>Brainliest</em>.

Have a good one.
God Bless.

Someone please help I hate probability :(

I think starting from the top it would go as follows

9/36, 27/36, 32/36 , 4/36

b.) 9/36

c.) I really don't remember how to do the "order doesn't matter" thing anymore, so idk. my best idea is for you to look up the formulas for permutation and combinations. I know it has to do with that

Consider the exponential function f(x) = 2(3x) and its graph.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The initial value of the function is <u>2</u>

The base of the function is <u>3</u>

The function shows exponential <u>growth</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(3^x)

Exponential functions are those with the following equation:

y = a*b^x

where a ≠ 0, b > 0 and b ≠ 1 and x is a real number.

<em>a</em> is the y-intercept and <em>b </em>is the base.

The initial value of the function is the same as the y-intercept

If <em>a</em> is positive, the function growth. If <em>a</em> is negative, the function decay

157 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the total amount of ounces to be made, and divide by the 'size' of the box. with 7,536 ounces to be made and the boxes being 48 ounces: 7536/48 will equal 157 boxes filled.

In a certain college, 33% of the physics majors belong to ethnic minorities. Of 8 students are selected at random from the physi
tiny-mole [99]

Answer: 0.0187

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution formula for probability :-

P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}, where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials , n is the total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

Given : The probability that the physics majors belong to ethnic minorities =0.33

Number of students selected : n= 8

Now, the probability that more than 5 belong to an ethnic minority :-

P(x>5)=P(6)+P(7)+P(8)\\\\=^8C_6(0.33)^6(0.67)^{2}+^8C_7(0.33)^7(0.67)^{1}+^8C_8(0.33)^8(0.67)^{0}\\\\=(\dfrac{8!}{6!2!})(0.33)^6(0.67)^{2}+(8)(0.33)^7(0.67)^{1}+(0.33)^8(0.67)^{0}\\\\=0.0186577086013\approx0.0187

Hence, the probability that more than 5 belong to an ethnic minority = 0.0187

Which equation is not equivalent to the formula r = st?
maksim [4K]
We are given the formula r = st. We evaluate each option to know the correct answer.

A.) S = r/t 
r = st

B.) t = r/s
r = st

C.) s = t/r
r = t/s

<span>D.) r = ts
</span>r = st

Therefore, the correct answer among the choice given is option C. It is not equivalent to the formula.
