Answer:

4.Angle B =Angle B

Reason: Reflexive property of equality

5.Triangle BDE is similar to triangle BAC

Reason: AA similarity postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC

Segment DE is parallel to segment AC.

1.Segment DE is parallel to AC

Reason: Given

2.Line segment AB is a transversal line which intersects two parallel lines

Reason:Conclusion from statement 1

3.Angle BDE congruent to angle BAC

Reason: Corresponding angles postulate

4.Angle B =Angle B

Reason: Reflexive property of equality

5.Triangle BDE is similar to triangle BAC

Reason: AA similarity postulate

6.BD over BA equals BE over BC.

Reason:When two triangles are similar then the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

I can't get to get this right can you please help me​

Answer:

(-7,4]\text{ or }\{x|-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the span of x-values covered by the function.

From the graph, we can see that the graph covers all the x-values from x=-7 to x=4.

However, note that closed and open circles. There is an open circle at x=-7, which means that the domain excludes x=-7. However, the circle at x=4 is closed, meaning it is included in the domain.

Therefore, the domain is, in interval notation:

(-7,4]

We use parentheses on the left because we do not include -7. And we use brackets on the right because we <em>do </em>include the 4.

And in set notation, this is:

\{x|-7
