Answer:

2) triangleTRS ~ triangleTPQ; SAS ~

Step-by-step explanation:

$TR = TP + PR = 42 + 6 = 48\\TS = TQ + QS = 28 + 4 = 32\\In \:\triangle TRS\: and \:\triangle TPQ\\\frac{TR}{TP} = \frac{48}{42} = \frac{8}{7} ....(1)\\\\\angle RTS \cong \angle PTQ.. (common \: \angle)... (2)\\\\\frac{TS}{TQ} = \frac{32}{28} = \frac{8}{7} ....(3)\\\\$

From equations (1), (2) & (3) it is obvious that:

$\therefore \triangle TRS \sim\triangle TPQ... (SAS \: Postulate)$

Answer:

2/(3c+9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The only thing you have to do is distribute the 3 to (c+3) and that is 3c+9 so the answer is 2/(3c+9).

Determine the slope for the line that meets each condition stated. Show your work. Passes through the points ( 3 , 5 ) and ( − 1

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through (-1, -7) and (3, 5) is 3

Explanation:

The slope of the line is calculated using the following rule:

$Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

We are given the following points:

(3 , 5) representing (x₁ , y₁)

(-1 , -7) representing (x₂ , y₂)

To get the slope, we will simply substitute with the givens in the above equation

This is done as follows:

$Slope = \frac{-7-5}{-1-3}=3$

You haven't attached the table for the second part. However, follow the same procedure. Pick two points from the table, substitute with them in the above equation and you'll get the slope

Hope this helps :)
