False.

Any two right triangles, similar or not, must have one pair of congruent angles, the right angles.

If one pair of acute angles angles is congruent, then by AA Similarity, the triangles are similar.

Therefore, for two right triangles to not be similar, neither of the acute angles of one triangle may be congruent to an acute angle of the other triangle

2(x-1) ≥ 10 or 3-4x > 15<br> Solve the compound inequality, and show work!

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

$x\geq 6\text{ or } x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the compound inequality:

$2(x-1)\geq10\text{ or } 3-4x>15$

Let's solve each of them individually first:

We have:

$2(x-1)\geq10$

Divide both sides by 2:

$x-1\geq5$

Add 1 to both sides:

$x\geq6$

We have:

$3-4x>15$

Subtract from both sides:

$-4x>12$

Divide both sides by -4:

$x$

Hence, our solution set is:

$x\geq 6\text{ or } x$

Give me an expression of nine less than a number

kompoz [17]

So if you want it to be 9 less than your number (x) then you would subtract nine.

So it would be:

x - 9.

So if your "number" is 12 then you would substitute x for 12 and it would be 12-9. The answer is 3. So 3 is 9 less than a number (12).
