Answer:
a) yes; 12/15/17 ~ 20/25/x; SAS
b) x = 28 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The left-side segments are in the ratio ...
top : bottom = 12 : 8 = 3 : 2
The right side segments are in the ratio ...
top : bottom = 15 : 10 = 3 : 2
These are the same ratio, and the angle at the peak is the same in both triangles, so the triangles are similar by the SAS postulate.
Normally, a similarity statement would identify the triangles by the labels on their vertices. Here, there are no such labels, so we choose to write the statement in terms of the side lengths, shortest to longest:
12/15/17 ~ 20/25/x
__
The sides of similar triangles are proportional, so the ratio of longest to shortest sides will be the same in the two triangles. In the smaller triangle, the longest side is 17/12 times the length of the shortest side. The value of x will be 17/12 times the length of the shortest side in the larger triangle:
x = 17/12 · 20 = 340/12
x = 28 1/3
Answer:
(29.14 ; 30.06)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that'
Sample size (n) = 57
Mean (m) = 29.6
Population standard deviation (σ) = 2.7
Confidence interval = 80%
= (1 - 0.8) / 2 = 0.1
Mean ± z * σ/√n
Using the Z probability calculator : Z0. 1 = 1.28
Hence,
29.6 ± 1.28 * (2.7 / √57)
29.6 - (1.28 * 0.3576237) ; 29.6 + (1.28 * 0.3576237)
29.142241664 ; 30.057758336
(29.14 ; 30.06)
1. Annual percent increase in rent is basically just a percentage of the rent increased each year.
2. Heater: Use fire places, or lower the amount of air conditioning usage so it's not so cold.
Electricity: Turn off ceiling fans and lights when not used, or only allow the essential things to use electricity.
Water: Not leave faucets or showers running, or no bathtubs which prevents baths.
3. The couple could save $450 in one year because 3000 divided by 0.15 which is the 15%, equals to the total amount saved at $450.
4. Groceries/everyday essentials, Gas money, taxes, pay off loans.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know what the first two blanks are asking for, but the last one should be Alternate Exterior Angles Property of Congruence (AEAPC).
