Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition: Two rectangles are similar when they have corresponding sides proportional are proportional by dilation.

For example, rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4cm and 6 cm, 8 cm are similar, but rectangles with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 6 cm, 10 cm are nor similar.

Since all angles in rectangle are always right angles, then options A and C are false (in terms of your question).

Option D is false too, because translation doesn't change the length, and in this case two rectangles are congruent.

Option B is true according to definition.

Suppose you invest a certain amount of money in account that earns 3% annual interest. You also invest that same amount + $2000

Greeley [361]

First account: $6500
Second account: $8500

Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500

Solve for x. 5/6 x = 10/3 x = 4/3 x = 2 x = 25/9 x = 4

SashulF [63]

Answer: LAST OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for the variable "x" from the expression $\frac{5}{6}x=\frac{10}{3}$ , you need to follow these steps:

1) You need to multiply both sides of the equation by 3:

$3(\frac{5}{6}x)=(\frac{10}{3})(3)\\\\\frac{15}{6}x=10$

2) You need to multiply both sides of the equation by 6:

$(6)(\frac{15}{6}x)=(10)(6)\\\\15x=60$

3) Finally, you can divide both sides of the equation by 15:

$\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{60}{15}\\\\x=4$

What are the answers plz help me

Serga [27]

For number 3 it would be |-10| and |10|.

Number 5a is supposed to <, because -1 is greater than -7 when you look at the line graph. The same goes for 5b. 5d is >, because 0 is always greater than -1 and it shows that on the line graph that you have there. 5e is =.

I don't see anything else wrong though. Just the ones I listed.

Hope that helps!
