Answer:

D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ruthie wants to construct a line that passes through point P and is perpendicular to AB

To Find : What should Ruthie do first?

Solution :

Her first step should be :

D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Accurate steps.

1.Place the compasses on the given external point P.construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

2.From each arc on AB draw an arc below the line so that the resultant arcs cross each other.

3.Place a straightedge between P and the point where the arcs intersect. Draw the perpendicular line from P to the line,

Thus the first step should be : D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Which equation illustrates the identity property of multiplication? (a + bi) × c = (ac + bci) (a + bi) × 0 = 0 (a + bi) × (c + d
labwork [276]

Answer:

(a + bi) \times 1 = (a + bi)

Step-by-step explanation:

The identity property means that whatever you put in is whatever comes out. Notice that if we multiply 1 with any number, we get that number back. So multiplying by 1 is the identity property of multiplication.

6x+18y=18 find y and z
Masja [62]

6x + 18y = 18. Let us take x = 0

6(0) + 18y = 18

0 + 18y = 18

18y = 18

y = 18/18

y = 1

(0, 1) [x = 0, y = 1]

6x + 18y = 18. Let us take y = 0

6x + 18(0) = 18

6x + 0 = 18

6x = 18

x = 18/6

x = 3

(3, 0) [x = 3, y =0]

Infinite solutions can be found for x and y

16. Solve the equation. Check the solution.
harina [27]
Hi there

a/(a² - 36) + 2/(a-6) = 1/(a+6)
a/(a+6)(a-6) + 2/(a-6) = 1/(a+6)
Now we need to multiply the terms by (a+6)(a-6)
a + 2(a+6) = 1(a-6)
a + 2a + 12 = a - 6
3a + 12 = a - 6
3a - a = -6 - 12
2a = -18
Divide both sides by 2
2a/2 = -18/2
a = -9
Thus, The correct option is A


I hope that's help !

Good luck !
