Answer: B. False

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given picture, we have two right triangles Δ PQR and Δ STU righta angled at ∠P and ∠ S respectively.

Also, it is shown that QR=6 units and TU =12 units.

Since, we have given only one pair of congruent angles, thus we cannot apply AA postulate of similarity to it.

Also, we have only one pair of corresponding sides, so we cannot check the proportionality of the corresponding sides.

Therefore, it is false that "based only on the information given in the diagram it is guaranteed that triangle PQR ~triangle STU" because they may might be not similar if their corresponding angles are actually different.

Which algebraic expression represents the difference of e squared and twenty-one? A. E2+21 b.21 times e2 c. E2 - 21 d. 21 divide

Digiron [165]

Answer: c. E2 - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul [167]

Answer:

0.627%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.

Probability of a randomly selected household to be audited and owns a dog = P(A ∩ B) = P(A) x P(B)

where A = household tax returns audited

B = percentage of households that own dogs

0.0165 x 0.38 = 0.627%

Pls help me on this, I need to know about the expressions and pictures

Start by expanding the brackets "2(x+4)". Then, start collecting similar terms (those that have "x" with each other, and those that dont have "x" go together). Finally, your answer should be "3x + 5 - 2x - 8 + 3" which is equal to just x.
