Answer:

Option B. AA

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Angle-Angle (AA) Similarity Postulate, states that If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another, then the triangles must be similar

In this problem

In the triangle XYZ

∠X=70°

∠Y=90°

∠Z=90°-70°=20° (remember that angle X and angle Z are complementary)

In the triangle UWV

∠V=20°

∠W=90°

∠U=90°-20°=70° (remember that angle V and angle U are complementary)

therefore

Traingles XYZ and UWV are similar by AA Similarity Postulate

Extra points! Please just show me how to set this up so I can solve, I don't need the answer. Thank you!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of of this as a function in which the number of pounds is a function of the number of hours. Each piece of given information is a point. Each point has the format (x, y) = (hours, pounds), where hours is x and is the independent variable, and pounds is y and is the dependent variable.

You have two points (4.5, 1445) and (7, 2320). First find the slope of the line that passes through those two points. Use the slope formula,

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

Then using the slope and the point-slope equation of a line, find the equation of the line. The point-slope equation of a line is

y - y1 = m(x - x1),

where m = slope, and the point is (x1, y1).

Try it. If you have questions or need extra help, just comment.

A positive real number is 2 less than another. When 4 times the larger is added to the square of the smaller, the result is 49.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The numbers are

$-2+3\sqrt{5}$ and $3\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the smaller positive real number

y -----> the larger positive real number

we know that

A positive real number is 2 less than another

$x=y-2$

$y=x+2$ ----> equation A

When 4 times the larger is added to the square of the smaller, the result is 49

$4y+x^2=49$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$4(x+2)+x^2=49$

solve for x

$x^2+4x-41=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$x^2+4x-41=0$

$a=1\\b=4\\c=-41$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{4^{2}-4(1)(-41)}} {2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{180}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-4\pm6\sqrt{5}} {2}$

$x=-2\pm3\sqrt{5}$

The positive real number is

$x=-2+3\sqrt{5}$

Find the value of y

$y=x+2$

$y=-2+3\sqrt{5}+2$

$y=3\sqrt{5}$

6. Write an equation of a line that is Parallel to the line: y = 3x -3

jeka94

Answer:

3x - y -6 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the Equation of the line parallel to the given equation of line . The given equation of the line is ,

$\rm\implies y = 3x - 3$

Slope Intercept Form :-

$\rm\implies y = mx + c$

where ,

m is slope
c is y intercept .

Therefore , the Slope of the line is 3 . Let the parallel line passes through ( 3,3) . We know that the parallel lines have same slope . Therefore the slope of the parallel line will also be 3 .

Using point slope form :-

$\rm\implies y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1) \\\\\rm\implies y - 3 = 3( x - 3 ) \\\\\rm\implies y -3 = 3x -9 \\\\\rm\implies 3x -y -9+3=0\\\\\rm\implies \boxed{\rm\red{ 3x -y -6=0}}$
