Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see if it is true....

1/2 ÷ 3

Rewritten,

=1/2 ÷ 3/1

(All numbers have a denominator of 1)

Flip the pancake!

=1/2 * 1/3

(When dividing fractions you flip one of the fractinons numerator and denominator)

The answer is,

=1/6

Therefore, the original statement 1/2 ÷ 3 = 1/6 is true!

Now the model is in the link below!

Hope this helps!

Use the subtraction method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair. 2x-y=6

Ber [7]

Answer:

Check for (3, 0)

Put x = 3 and y = 0 in equation 2x – y = 6

2(3) – (0) = 6

6 = 6

<h2>True statement. </h2>

(3,0) is a solution of 2x – y = 6.

(ii) Check for (0, 6)

Put x = 0 and y = 6 in 2x – y = 6

2 x 0 – 6 = 6-6 = 6

<h2>False statement. </h2>

⇒ (0, 6) is not a solution of 2x – y = 6.

(iii) Check for (2, -2)

Put x = 0 and y = 6 in 2x – y = 6

2 x 2 – (-2) = 6

4 + 2 = 6

6 = 6

<h2>True statement. </h2>

⇒ (2,-2) is a solution of 2x – y = 6.

(iv) Check for (√3, 0)

Put x = √3 and y = 0 in 2x – y = 6

2 x √3 – 0 = 6

2√3 = 6

<h2>False statement. </h2>

⇒(√3, 0) is not a solution of 2x – y = 6.

(v) Check for (1/2, -5)

Put x = 1/2 and y = -5 in 2x – y = 6

2 x (1/2) – (-5) = 6

1 + 5 = 6

6 = 6

<h2>True statement. </h2>

⇒ (1/2, -5) is a solution of 2x – y = 6.

Which triangle defined by three points on the coordinate plane is congruent with the triangle illustrated, and why?

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

D) (-2, -3)(-4, -3)(-2, -9); because corresponding pairs of sides and corresponding pairs of angles are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

For triangles to be congruent, it is not enough that corresponding angles are congruent. In addition, there must be at least one pair of corresponding sides that are congruent. (Then all pairs will be congruent.)

The points listed in choices B and D are points that form a right triangle with leg lengths 2 and 6. However, choice B only refers to the angle measures, and not the sides. Choice D is the correct one.
