*the diagram of the Russian stringed instrument is attached below.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

To show that the traingular parts of the two balalaikas instruments are congruent, substitute x = 6, to find the missing measurements that is given in both ∆s.

Parts of the first ∆:

WY = (2x - 2) in = 2(6) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10 in

m<Y = 9x = 9(6) = 54°.

XY = 12 in

Parts of the second ∆:

m<F = 72°

HG = (x + 6) in = 6 + 6 = 12 in

HF = 10 in

m<G = 54°

m<H = 180 - (72° + 54°)

m<H = 180 - 126

m<H = 54°

From the information we have, let's match the parts that are congruent to each other in both ∆s:

WY ≅ FH (both are 10 in)

XY ≅ GH (both are 12 in)

<Y ≅ <G (both are 54°)

Thus, since two sides (WY and XY) and an included angle (<Y) of ∆WXY is congruent to two corresponding sides (FH and GH) and an included angle (<G) in ∆FGH, therefore, ∆WXY ≅ ∆FGH by the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Congruence Theorem.

This is enough proof to show that the triangular parts of the two balalaikas are congruent for x = 6.

Gas in July is 2.3 times Gas in June
That means Gas in July (252.57) equals 2.3 times gas in June, or “n”
242.57= 2.3 x n and solve for n
Divide both sides by2.3
Calculator gives 105.465
Rounded to nearest HUNDRED is 100

Rounded to nearest HUNDREDTH would be 105.47
Check the answer to see if July gas is 2.3 times June gas
June gas 105.47 x 2.3 is 242.57
So the answer is 105.47 Rounded to nearest hundredth

Pairs that satisfy function y=2x+1
evablogger [386]

Test a pair from each table by substituting their values into the given equation and solving.

A) y = 2x + 1 .......... 2 = 2(0) + 1 .......... 2 ≠ 1

B) y = 2x + 1 .......... 1 = 2(0) + 1 .......... 1 = 1

C) y = 2x + 1 .......... -1 = 2(0) + 1 .......... -1 ≠ 1

D) y = 2x + 1 .......... -2 = 2(0) + 1 .......... -2 ≠ 1


The only pair that satisfied the equation was from answer choice B. Therefore, B is the correct answer.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

0.02<x<0.80

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

0.02 is equal to 2/100 and 0.8 is equal to 80/100

so you could really choose any number between 0.03 and 0.79
