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

Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Is this the entire question? Some of it makes no sense without a diagram or something.

To get rid of A you actually have to solve the equation.

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72 Remove the brackets

7h - 15h + 40 = - 72 Combine the like terms

- 8h + 40 = - 72 Subtract 40 from both sides

- 8h = -112 Divide by -8

h = 14

Well the depth is a whole number so A is true.

We don't know anything about time. But the answer is positive.

C is false because B is true.

We don't know exactly what the depth of the well is.

I would pick A, but you need the entire question.

A new, trendy department store is experiencing exponential growth across America. The chain began in 2004 when it opened 16 stor

QveST [7]

The equation is y=16(1.35)ˣ.

This equation is of the form y=a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the initial amount, r is the rate of growth expressed as a decimal number, y is the total, and x is the amount of time. For our problem, a is 16; b is 0.35 (35%=35/100=0.35). This gives us the equation above.
