Answer:

20% of 50 oz is 10 oz, but 20% of 60 oz is 12 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 60 is a larger number than 50, so percentage changes to it will be larger.

The length of OM is 4/3 the length of OJ, and the length of ON is 4/3 the length of OK. Thus, two pairs of sides from the triangles are proportional to each other.

Also, angle O from one of the triangles is equal to angle O of the other triangle because they are the same angle.

Thus, the two triangles are similar by SAS (side-angle-side) similarity theorem. This theorem is quite similar to the SAS congruence theorem.

To make a similarity statement, we just have to match corresponding parts when naming the triangle.

Answer:

$y \leqslant 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is set of all y-values. The range starts from minimum value to maximum value.

We don't have minimum value (approaching negative infinity.)

We have maximum value at x ≈ 2 equal 6.

Therefore the answer is

-inf <= y <= 6. But we don't usually write that. Instead, we cut out -inf and we get —

$y \leqslant 6$

Which expression is equivalent to 3 ( x + 10)

devlian [24]

Answer:

3x + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(x+10)\\\\\text{Distribute '3' into 'x + 10'}\\\\\\3(x+10)\rightarrow3x+30\\\\\left \{ {{3*x=3x} \atop {3*10=30}} \right.$

3x + 30 would be an equivalent expression.

Hope this helps.
