Answer:

10 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the boxes are not distinguishable, the order doesn't matter in this case. Therefore, the answer would be 5 choose 3, which is \frac{5!}{2!3!} = \frac{5*4*3*2}{2*3*2} = 10

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to –x + 3y = 6 Responses 1/3 StartFragment, 1/3, -1 StartFragment, -1, 3 StartFragm
algol13

The slope of the line parallel to the line  –x + 3y = 6 is a 1/3 option (A) 1/3 is correct.

<h3>What is the slope?</h3>

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

It is given that:

The equation of the line:

–x + 3y = 6

Write the equation in standard form:

y = x/3 + 6/3

y = x/3 + 2

m = 1/3

The slope of the line parallel to the line  –x + 3y = 6

M = 1/3

Thus, the slope of the line parallel to the line  –x + 3y = 6 is a 1/3 option (A) 1/3 is correct.

Given: QR I PT and ZQPR = ZSTR
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

\triangle PQR \sim \triangle TSR

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

QR⊥PT

\angle QPR = \angle STR

To Prove : \triangle PQR \sim \triangle TSR

Solution:

Statements                                            Reasons

QR⊥PT                                                Given

∠QRP and ∠SRT are right angles       Def of perpendicular

∠QPR≅∠STR                                     Given

∠QRP = ∠SRT                                    All right angles are equal

ΔPQR≈ΔTSR                                     AA similarity

Hence  \triangle PQR \sim \triangle TSR
