This is a little long, but it gets you there.

  1. ΔEBH ≅ ΔEBC . . . . HA theorem
  2. EH ≅ EC . . . . . . . . . CPCTC
  3. ∠ECH ≅ ∠EHC . . . base angles of isosceles ΔEHC
  4. ΔAHE ~ ΔDGB ~ ΔACB . . . . AA similarity
  5. ∠AEH ≅ ∠ABC . . . corresponding angles of similar triangle
  6. ∠AEH = ∠ECH + ∠EHC = 2∠ECH . . . external angle is equal to the sum of opposite internal angles (of ΔECH)
  7. ΔDAC ≅ ΔDAG . . . HA theorem
  8. DC ≅ DG . . . . . . . . . CPCTC
  9. ∠DCG ≅ ∠DGC . . . base angles of isosceles ΔDGC
  10. ∠BDG ≅ ∠BAC . . . .corresponding angles of similar triangles
  11. ∠BDG = ∠DCG + ∠DGC = 2∠DCG . . . external angle is equal to the sum of opposite internal angles (of ΔDCG)
  12. ∠BAC + ∠ACB + ∠ABC = 180° . . . . sum of angles of a triangle
  13. (∠BAC)/2 + (∠ACB)/2 + (∠ABC)/2 = 90° . . . . division property of equality (divide equation of 12 by 2)
  14. ∠DCG + 45° + ∠ECH = 90° . . . . substitute (∠BAC)/2 = (∠BDG)/2 = ∠DCG (from 10 and 11); substitute (∠ABC)/2 = (∠AEH)/2 = ∠ECH (from 5 and 6)
  15. This equation represents the sum of angles at point C: ∠DCG + ∠HCG + ∠ECH = 90°, ∴ ∠HCG = 45° . . . . subtraction property of equality, transitive property of equality. (Subtract ∠DCG+∠ECH from both equations (14 and 15).)

two bags and four hats cost $100 in all. three bags and seven hats cost $164 in all. what is the cost of 1 hat?
Natali [406]

Answer:

Bags = 22

Hat = 14

22 x 2 = 44

14 x 4 = 56

So the first part is true

3 x 22 = 66

7 x 14 = 98

So the second part is true

14 is the answer

It's trial and error

Answer as many as you can please (write in slope-intercept form)
RoseWind [281]

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one, we are already given our slope. All we need to do is find the y-intercept, b.

y=-2x+b

6=-2(-3)+b

6=6+b

b=0

The slope-intercept form is y=-2x.

For the second one, we need to first find the slope using m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }.

m=\frac{1-13}{3-(-6)} =\frac{-12}{9}

Now that we have our slope, we can plug it into our slope-intercept form to solve for b.

y=-\frac{12}{9} x+b

3=-\frac{12}{9}(1)+b

-\frac{9}{4} =b

The slope-intercept form is y=-\frac{12}{9} -\frac{9}{4}.

For the third one, we are already given the slope, so all we have to do is find b.

y=-\frac{1}{2}x +b

-7=-\frac{1}{2} (-4)+b

-7=2+b

-9=b

The slope-intercept form is y=-\frac{1}{2} x-9.

For the last one, we need to first find the slope using m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }.

m=\frac{-8-2}{3-1}=\frac{-10}{2}  =-5

Now that we have our slope, we can plug it into our slope-intercept form and find b.

y=-5x+b

2=-5(1)+b

2=-5+b

7=b

Our slope-intercept form is y=-5x+7.

ONLY answer if you know what the answer is. If you are not sure DONT FREAKING ANSWER.
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

5 = |-5|

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it as a number line, like in the picture below. The absolute value is how far a number is from zero (0). If 5 is 5 away from zero, then the opposite of 5 (-5) is also 5 away from zero.

Refer to the picture below for an illustration:
