Can someone explain segment addition/subtraction in terms of congruence in geometry? Can they also provide an example? Thanks.

Segment subtraction (three total segments): If a segment is subtracted from two congruent segments, then the differences are congruent. Angle subtraction (three total angles): If an angle is subtracted from two congruent angles, then the differences are congruent.

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation? y-3=5(x-2) A.) (2,3) B.) (3,2) C.) Both D.) Neither

White raven [17]

Answer:

A is the only solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple way to solve it is to plug in the x and y values

For A, we plug in 2 for x and 3 for y

3-3=5(2-2)

0=5(0)

0=0

Ordered pair A is a solution

For B, plug in 3 for x and 2 for y

2-3=5(3-2)

-1=5(1)

-1 does not equal 5

Therefore only A is a solution

S=L (1 - r), for r

maria [59]

OK. Then let's solve for ' r '. That means you have to come up with an equation that says r = everything else.

Step #1:
Write the equation you're given: S = L (1 - r)

Let's divide each side by ' L ': S/L = 1 - r

Subtract 1 from each side : S/L - 1 = -r

Multiply each side by -1 :  1 - S/L = r

and there you have it.
