Answer:

7.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The price of oil decreased from $52 per barrel to $48 per barrel.

We need to find the percentage decrease in the price of oil. It can be calculated as follows :

\%=\dfrac{52-48}{52}\times 100\\\\=7.69\%

or

= 7.7%

So, the percentage decrease in the price of oil is 7.7%.

On a number line the directed line segment from Q to S has endpoints Q at -14 and S at 2. Point R partitions the directed line s
liq [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from Q to S is 2 - (-14), or 16.

We start at point Q.  Note how 3 and 5 add  up to 8, which allows us to write:

R = Q + (3/8)(16), or R = -14 + 6, or R = -8.

From R to S it is (5/8)(16), or 10 units.

The directed line segment is partitioned into segments of lengths 6 and 10, whose combined length is 16, as expected.

Would you use SSS or SAS to prove the triangles congruent? If there is not enough information to prove by SSS or SAS, then write
egoroff_w [7]
<h2><u>Answer (d</u>) :</h2>

These triangles are congruent under the SAS congruence criterion. We can prove it using the following steps :

Given :

In triangle 1 and 2 :

  • A side in triangle 1 and a side in triangle 2 are equal.
  • Another side in triangle 1 and triangle 2 is equal.
  • The angle between the equivalent sides is also equal.

Since the SAS congruence criterion says that two triangles are congruent if two of their sides and one included angle is equal and since these 2 triangles fulfill all of those rules, we can conclude that these triangles are congruent under the SAS congruence criterion.
