Answer:

D. Angles BAC and DCA are congruent by the Alternate interior angles theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ABCD is a parallelogram.

AB=CD and BC=AD

$AB\parallel CD \; and\; BC\parallel AD$

To prove that $AB\cong CD\; and\; BC\cong AD$ .

Proof: According to given information

$AB\parallel CD$ and segment $BC\parallel AD$ .

Construct diagonal AC with a straightedge.

In $\triangle ABC\; and\; \triangle ADC$

AC=AC

Reflexive property of equality.

$m\angle BCA\cong m\angle DAC$

By alternate interior angles theorem.

$m\angle BAC\cong m\angle DCA$

By alternate interior angles theorem.

$\triangle BCA\cong\triangle DAC$

By ASA( Angle-Side_Angle) theorem.

By CPCTC opposite sides AB and CD, as well as BC and DA are congruent.

Hence proved.

The function g(x) = 12,500(0.91)x represents the value of a piece of farm equipment after x years. Approximately when will its v

topjm [15]

Answer:

B. 7.3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is wrong. The correct function is :

$g(x)=12500(0.91)^{x}$

We have the function $g(x)$ that represents the value of a piece of farm equipment after $x$ years.

This means that when $x=0$ its original value is :

$g(0)=12500(0.91)^{0}=12500$

Now we want to calculate approximately when will its value be half its original value. Then, we write :

$\frac{12500}{2}=6250$

$6250$ is half of its original value. We need to find $x$ that satisfies the following equation :

$g(x)=6250=12500(0.91)^{x}$

Solving for $x$ :

$6250=12500(0.91)^{x}$ ⇒

$0.5=(0.91)^{x}$

Now we apply natural logarithm to each side of the equation :

$ln(0.5)=ln[(0.91)^{x}]$

Using logarithm properties :

$ln(0.5)=ln[(0.91)^{x}]$ ⇒

$ln(0.5)=x[ln(0.91)]$

$x=\frac{ln(0.5)}{ln(0.91)}$ ⇒

$x$ ≅ $7.3496$

The correct option is B. 7.3 years

A grocer purchased a 100-pound mixture of nuts for $515.The mixture contains 70 pounds of peanuts that cost $3.50 per pound.The

alexdok [17]

Answer $9.00 per pound for almonds
Reason
First, 70# x $3.50 = $245 of peanuts

Second, $515 total cost - $245 of peanuts = $270 of almonds

Third, we know 100# - 70# peanuts = 30# of almonds

Last, $270 cost of almonds divided by 30# of almonds = $9.00 per pound for almonds
