An empty 5-gal water jug weighs 0.75 lb. With 3 c of water inside, the jug weighs 2.25 lb. Which equation models the jug's weigh

Weight of 1 c
3 c = 2.25 - empty bucket
3 c = 2.25 - 0.75
3 c = 1.5
c = 1.5/3 =1/2

Jug Weigh = (1/2)x +0.75

From first principles, find the indicated derivatives

LenaWriter [7]

By definition of the derivative,

$\displaystyle\frac{dr}{ds} = \lim_{h\to0} \frac{\left(\frac{(s + h)^3}2 + 1\right) - \left(\frac{s^3}2 + 1\right)}{h}$

$\displaystyle\frac{dr}{ds} = \lim_{h\to0} \frac{\left(\frac{s^3+3s^2h+3sh^2+h^3}2 + 1\right) - \left(\frac{s^3}2 + 1\right)}{h}$

$\displaystyle\frac{dr}{ds} = \lim_{h\to0} \frac{\frac{3s^2h+3sh^2+h^3}2}{h}$

$\displaystyle\frac{dr}{ds} = \lim_{h\to0} \frac12 \frac{3s^2h+3sh^2+h^3}{h}$

$\displaystyle\frac{dr}{ds} = \lim_{h\to0} \frac12 (3s^2+3sh+h^2)$

$\displaystyle\frac{dr}{ds} = \frac{3s^2}2$

The proof shows that ABCD is a rectangle. Which of the following is the missing reason?

patriot [66]

Answer:

Side-side-side postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first statement, we are given that AC = BD ....... (1){It is given}

Now, in the second statement, we are given that AB = DC ...... (2){ Because the parallelogram has equal opposite sides}

Now, again we are given that AD = DA ........... (3) {From the symmetric property}

Now, conditions (1), (2), and (3) are applicable to say that Δ ABD and Δ ACD are congruent.

Since there are three sides involved to say Δ ABD ≅ Δ ACD, so it is by Side-side-side postulate. (Answer)
