In 1945, the federal minimum wage was $0.40/h. In 2015, the federal minimum wage is $7.25/h. What is the percent increase?

1 answer:

3 0

You need to know the difference in change between .40 and 7.25, which is 6.85, then you divide the change in price by the original amount, so you do 6.85/.40, which is 17.125, then multiply by 100 to get percent and you get 1712.5% increase.

Which statements can be used to prove that ABC and A’B’C are congruent?

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

O A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A identifies two angles (sufficient for similarity) and one side, sufficient (with similarity) for congruence. The applicable congruence theorem is AAS.

Option B identifies two sides and the angle not between them. The two triangles will be congruent in that case only if the angle is opposite the longest side, which is not true in general.

Option C same deal as Option A.

Option D identifies three congruent angles, which will prove the triangles similar, but not necessarily congruent.
