After that incident, the Civil defense team decided to buy new trucks with ladders higher than 100 feet. They found 2 different

trucks with same height of ladders. The first truck costs $145,000 and will cost $0.31 per mile traveled based on the current gas prices. The second truck will cost $160,000 but gets better gas mileage, costing $0.27 per mile. They need to decide which truck is the best deal.

Answer:

the first truck

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost difference between the first truck and the second truck = $160,000-$145,000 = $15,000

the difference of gas cost between the first truck and the second truck = $0.31 - $0.26= $0.05 per mile.

so,

I think, this is a very significant number of truck cost compared with gas cost

for the best deal, the first truck is the best choice.

Andre tried to solve the equation 1/4(x + 12) = 2. What was his mistake? *
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

x+12=8    

x=8-12

Andre did not multiple both by four to get the exact whole number. He also, didnt subtract 12 which is not possible due to it being multiplied by 1/4.

Congruent triangles & proofs need answers to all the ones i got wrong. thank u!
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

13. Since, it is given that we have to prove ΔGDH≅ΔFEH by HL rule, thus From ΔGDH, ∠GDH=90° and GH is the hypotenuse and from ΔFEH, ∠HEF=90° and HF is the hypotenuse, thus in ΔGDH and ΔFEH,

∠GDH≅∠HEF=90°

GH≅FH,

Thus by HL the given triangles are congruent.

Option A is correct.

14. From the figure, it can be seen that both triangles have a right angle congruent and hypotenuse congruent, thus by HL rule, triangle scan be prove congruent.

Option A is correct.

15. It is given that BI is parallel to RD, thus using the alternate interior angle property, ∠B≅∠R.

Option C is correct.

16. It is given that BI is parallel to RD, and ∠BSI and ∠RSD form the vertically opposite angles, thus ∠BSI≅∠RSD by vertical angles are congruent.

Option A is correct.

17. Since Δ ABC is an isosceles triangle, thus two sides of the triangle are equal, therefore ∠A=∠B=3x+5, using the angle sum property in ΔABC, we have

3x+5+2x+3x+5=180°

⇒8x+10=180

⇒8x=170

⇒x=21.25

Thus, ∠B=3x+5=3(21.25)+5=63.75+5=68.75°

18. From ΔJKL and ΔDEF, we have

∠K=∠E (given)

∠L=∠F(given)

JL=DF

Thus, By AAS rule ΔJKL ≅ ΔDEF

As corresponding angles and corresponding sides are equal in these two triangles as compared to the other triangles.

What would the constant ratio be? And am I correct about it being geometric? ​
andrezito [222]

Answer:

No it would be a Arithmetic sequence because it’s adding, not multiplying.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequences use addition, so each term is a constant amount (common difference) more or less than the last.

Geometric sequences use multiplication, so each term is multiplied by a constant amount (common ratio) to get the next one.
