Answer:
- No, it does not, because the segments do not have the same length.
Explanation:
The segment AB is supposed to be copied.
The correct procedure is:
- Put the tip of the compass on the point A
- Open the compass till the point B
- Without changing the width of the compass, put the tip of the compass on point C.
- Draw an arc from C.
- Draw a line from C until a point in the arc.
- Mark and label the point of intersection as D.
- Done.
Doing that, the length of the new segment CD equals the length of the segment AB.
Answer:
No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
To solve for x, we should expand the parenthesis and isolate the variable x.
<h3>Solve for x</h3>
- 6(1 + 5x) = 5(1 + 6x)
- 6 + 30x = 5 + 30x
- 6 ≠ 5
The are no solutions for x, as 6 does not equal to 5.
Answer:
p = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The usually recommended procedure for solving a proportion is to "cross multiply", then divide by the coefficient of the variable. (Solve the remaining one-step equation.)
<h3>Cross multiply</h3>
This means multiply both sides of the equation by the product of the denominators:
(15/6)(6p) = (10/p)(6p) . . . . "cross multiply"
15p = 60 . . . . . . simplify
<h3>Second step</h3>
Now, divide by the coefficient of the variable.
15p/15 = 60/15
p = 4
The solution is p = 4.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If the variable is in the <em>numerator</em> of the proportion, using cross multiplication, you will find that you end up multiplying and dividing by the other denominator. To solve it in that case, you only need to multiply by the denominator under the variable.
__
For example, to solve ...
2/5 = p/10
you only need to multiply by 10. You don't need to multiply by 50, then divide by 5.
__
Any proportion can be written 4 ways:

This suggests another strategy: invert the whole proportion, then solve it as one with p in the numerator:
6/15 = p/10 ⇒ p = 10(6/15) = 4
Answer:
180 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
First you find the slope of the line assuming this is linear. it's just the Rise over Run. so go up 4 over 2 which means the slope is going up two. so do 90 times 2 which is 180. That means Jeff read 180 pages.

Answer:
(d) ∠H ≅ ∠J
Step-by-step explanation:
We already know that ∠G is congruent to itself. If we show (by translation or other means) that ∠I ≅ ∠K, then we know that ΔGHI ~ ΔGJK. The third angle in each triangle will be congruent, too.
∠H ≅ ∠J
_____
The problem is concerned with angles, so the first two answer choices are irrelevant. If two angles are shown congruent, the triangles are congruent by AA similarity, so the third answer choice is incorrect.
