Answer:

#1) Angle Addition Postulate; #2) Definition of bisect; #3) postulate, definition and conjecture; #4) Given, Segment Addition Postulate, Subtraction Property of Equality; #5) Angle Addition Postulate, 60°+40°=m∠ABC, 100°=m∠ABC, Definition of obtuse angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle addition postulate says that when two angles have a common vertex and common side, the measures of the smaller two angles added together is equal to the measure of the larger angle formed by the two. In Statement 3 of Problem 1, JMK and KML are added to form JML. This is the angle addition postulate.

When a segment or a line bisects an angle, it cuts it into two equivalent angles. This is why the angles formed by bisector PQ, RPQ and QPS, are congruent.

Postulates, definitions, conjectures and theorems can all be used as reasons in a two-column proof. Premises are not.

In #4, we are given that KL = MN. LN is formed by pieces LM and MN; this is the segment addition postulate. Once we have KL+LM = LM+MN, we can subtract LM from both sides; the property that allows us to do this is the subtraction property of equality.

In #5, we see that ∠ABC is formed by angles ABD and DBC; this is the angle addition postulate. ABC = 60° and DBC = 40°; we substitute these in for the angles, using the substitution property. We can then add these two angles together for a measure of 100°. This is by definition an obtuse angle.

Four students were asked to write an expression which has terms that have a greatest common factor of 8c. The expressions provid

wel

Answer:

Wyatt wrote the correct expression

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are to evaluate which of the students wrote an expression with the highest common factor being 8c

For Tanya; 32c + 16c; 16c( 2 + 1); This is wrong as the highest common factor is 16c

For Wyatt, we have 8c - 48cd; factorizing, we have 8c(1-6cd); This is correct

For Xavier we have 36c-24c; 8 is not a factor of 36, so it won’t work

For Yang 8c + 40; 8(c+ 5); what we are trying to look for is 8c and not 8 so this is wrong also

What is the value of sin0 in the diagram below?

Tasya [4]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 24/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that sinФ = opposite leg / hypotenuse

Opposite leg = 24/25

Hypotenuse = 1

then sin Ф = (24/25) / 1

sin Ф = 24/25

Jonah is going to the store to buy candles for his igloo. Small candles cost $3.50 and large candles cost $5.00. He needs to buy

Semmy [17]

Answer:

$x+y\geq 20$

$3.50x+5.00y\leq 80$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of small candles and y represent number of large candles.

We have been given that Jonah needs to buy at least 20 candles. This means number of small and large candles should be greater than or equal to 20. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

$x+y\geq 20...(1)$

We are also told that small candles cost $3.50, so cost of x small candles would be $3.50x$ .

Since large candles cost $5.00, so cost of y large candles would be $5.00y$ .

We are told that Jonah cannot spend more than $80, this means cost of x small candles and y large candles should be less than or equal to $80. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

$3.50x+5.00y\geq 80$

Therefore, our required system of inequalities would be:

$x+y\geq 20$

$3.50x+5.00y\leq 80$
