Answer:

Option C) 27 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of people

we know that

The cost of decorations ($35) plus the number of people (x) multiplied by the cost per person on food ($8.50) must be equal to $264.50

so

The linear equation that represent this situation is

35+8.50x=264.50

solve for x

Subtract 35 both sides

8.50x=264.50-35

8.50x=229.50

Divide by 8.50 both sides

x=229.50/8.50

x=27\ people

A line passes through (-1,7) and (2,10) which answer is the equation of the line
alekssr [168]

Answer: -x + y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you are going to want to find the slope of the equation. The equation for that it (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (10 - 7)/(2 - -1) and that equals 1. So your slope will be 1.

Now you have half of your equation complete, currently it looks like, y = x + b. So we have to find the y intercept. You can do that by plugging in a pair of coordinates into the current equation and solve for b.

Lets plug in (2,10)

10 = 2 + b

10 - 2 = b

b = 8

So now you have your equation in slope intercept form, y = x + 8. Just move the x over to the left side and there is your answer.

-x + y = 8

50 Points: Name the similar triangles &amp; Prove the similarity with details
Leno4ka [110]

<u>Let's consider the facts at hand</u>:

  • By Vertical Angle Theorem ⇒ ∠BCE = ∠DCF
  • ∠BEC = ∠DFC
  • Sides BE = DF

<u>Based on the diagram, triangles BCE and triangles DCF are similar</u>

   ⇒ based on the Angle-Angle theorem

      ⇒ since ∠BCE = ∠DCF and ∠BEC = ∠DFC

         ⇒ the two triangles are similar

Hope that helps!

<em>Definitions of Theorem I used:</em>

  • <u><em>Vertical Angle Theorem: </em></u><em>opposite angles of two intersecting lines must be equal</em>
  • <u><em>Angle-Angle Theorem:</em></u><em> if two angles of both triangles are equal, then the given triangles must be similar</em>

<em />
