Hello there!
The expected population for Valleytown cannot be modeled with an exponential function since it is not being multiplied nor divided. This would be an arithmetic function/sequence since it is adding. It also has a fixed increase value while in an exponential function it changes.
Answer:
8. Not similar
9. Similar
Step-by-step explanation:
8. You could try to us the AA theorem which means that two angles in the triangle are equal, which would mean that the triangles are similar. But 46+58=104 and 180-104=76 so there are not two similar angled between the triangles.
9. You can use the same theorem for this problem (AA). So 106+31=137 and then 180-137=43 which is one of the angles in the second triangle. Since at least two of the angles are equal, you can use AA theorem yo prove they are similar.
Hope this helps!
