Which statement is the if/then conditional statement of the following? Vertical angles are congruent.

Mathematics

FinnZ [79.3K]2 years ago

An if-then statement must hold under any condition. Let's take it case by case:


A. This one makes sense, and is perfect! If two angles are vertical, then they must be congruent. This holds no matter what. This is your answer.


B. This doesn't hold because Alternate Interior Angles can also be congruent (along with many others). Two angles don't <em>have </em>to be vertical to be congruent.


C. This one is also true because this is the contrapositive of Option A. (Read my reasoning on D to know what a contrapositive is). Therefore, this is correct.


D. This one is the contrapositive of B, which makes it the exact same as B. Thus, this is not the answer. Contrapositive, by the way, just means that it's the inverse and opposite of a given statement. Let's say P is the contrapositive of Q. If this is the case, then if Q is true, P must be true. In our case, Option D is the contrapositive of Option B and since Option B is not true, neither is D.

Sean and sarah spend $70 a month eating out how much money would they have after 15 years if they invested the money instead at
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Future Value= $17,170.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit (A)= $70

Interest rate (i)= 0.04/12= 0.0033

Number of periods (n)= 15*12= 180 months

<u>To calculate the future value (amount saved), we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {70*[(1.0033^180) - 1]} / 0.0033

FV= $17,170.12

An oarsman can row his boat 3 mph in still water. He sets out on the Illinois River, which flows at 5 mph. We are interested in
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The speed from the observer is 8 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the boat is going downstream with full force, its speed will be the one the oarsman can row on still water added by the flow of the river. In this case he can row the boat at speed of 3 mph, while the stream is 5 mph, so the speed from the observer standpoint is:

speed = 3 + 5\\speed = 8 \text{ mph}

The speed from the observer is 8 mph.
