Answer:

15 students celebrate both holidays

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of students that celebrate both be x

By set notation, we add up individual sides as follows to give the number of values on the universal set

Mathematically, that will be;

50 = (29-x) + (36-x) + x

50 = 29-x + 36-x + x

50 = 65-x

x = 65-50

x = 15

What is the distance between the following coordinates? Show work.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \tt{2 \sqrt{26}}}  \:  \: \text{units} } }

<h3>♁ Question :</h3>
  • Find the distance between ( 5 , -6 ) and ( 3 ,4 ).

<h3>♁ Step by step explanation:</h3>

Let the points be A and B. Now,

  • Let, A ( 5 , -6 ) ⇢ ( x₁ , y₁ )
  • Let, B ( 3 , 4 ) ⇢ ( x₂ , y₂ )

Use the distance formula to determine the distance between A ( 5 , -6 ) and B ( 3 , 4 ).

\boxed{ \underline{ \sf{distance =  \sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2}  +  {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } }}}

Substitute the actual value of the points into the distance formula and then simplify.

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {(3 - 5)}^{2} +  {(4 - ( - 6))}^{2}  } }}

Remember : The positive and negative integer are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer.

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {( - 2)}^{2}  +  {(4 - ( - 6))}^{2} } }}

Remember : ( - ) × ( - ) = ( + )

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {( - 2)}^{2} +  {(4 + 6)}^{2}  } }}

Add the numbers : 4 and 6

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {( - 2)}^{2}  +  {(10)}^{2} } }}

Evaluate the power

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{4 + 100}}}

Add the numbers : 4 and 100

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ \sqrt{104}}}

\dashrightarrow{ \boxed{ \sf{2 \sqrt{26} }}} units

Therefore , The distance between ( 5 , -6 ) and ( 3 , 4 ) is \sf{2 \sqrt{26}} units .

And we're done!

Hope I helped!

Have a wonderful time ! シ

On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (negative 2, 7), (negative 2, 3), and (negative 6, 3) and triangle D E F has po
Kipish [7]

Question:

On a coordinate plane, △ABC has points (-2, 7), (-2, 3), and (-6, 3) and △DEF has points (-2,-10), (-2, -2), and (6, -2).

Given that

\frac{AB}{DE} = \frac{BC}{EF} = \frac{1}{2}

Complete the statements to show that △ABC ~ △DEF by the SAS similarity theorem.

Horizontal and vertical lines are __(1)__. So, angles are right angles by definition of perpendicular lines. All right angles are __(2)__

Therefore, △ABC ~ △DEF by the SAS similarity theorem.

Answer:

(1) perpendicular

(2) congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Fill in the gaps

\frac{AB}{DE} = \frac{BC}{EF} = \frac{1}{2} implies that:

AB : DE= BC : EF

In other words:

AB ~ DE ---- Side (S)

and

BC ~ EF ---- Side (S)

Now to fill in the gap with:

(1) perpendicular

(2) congruent

<u>Further explanation</u>

(1) Vertical lines and horizontal lines meet at a right angle (i.e. 90 degrees). Any two lines that meet at a right angle are perpendicular

(2) Angles with equal measures are congruent. Because right angles have a congruent angles of 90 degrees, then they are congruent.

Solve for v.<br> 5(v+2) = -2(7v-3) +9v<br> Simplify your answer as much as possible
Andreas93 [3]

5(v+2) = -2(7v-3) + 9

------------------------------------

Distribute:

5v + 10 = -14v + 6 + 9

Combine Like Terms

5v + 10 = (-14v+9v)+6

5v + 10 = -5v + 6

Subtract -5v from both sides

10v + 10 = 6

Subtract 10 from both sides

10v = -4

Reduce

5v = -2

Divide both sides by 5

v = -2/5

Simplify

v = -0.2
