Answer:

p = 7.2

q = 6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

if the triangles are similar then the side lengths must be proportional :

AC/BA = CD/BE

9/5 = p/4 cross multiply expressions

5p = 36 divide both sides by 5

p = 7.2

same goes for q

9/5 = (q+8)/8 cross multiply expressions

72 = 5(q+8) divide both sides by 5

14.4 = q+8 subtract 8 from both sides

6.4 = q

Specify the set of all integers that are congruent to 5 (mod 7) using (a) the roster method and (b) set-builder notation
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

(a) A = {... -23, -16, -9, -2, 5, 12, 19, 26, ....}

(b) A = {x\in Z: x = 5 - 7t,\ t\in Z}

Solution:

For two integers x and y to be congruent, we know that:

If 't' divides y - x, we say that x is congruent to y modulo t, written x ≡ y mod t.

Now,

In roster form, we include each element in the representation of the set.

In set-builder form, we use mathematical notation and properties of the elements of the set.

Now,

As per the question;

(a) To represent all the integers congruent to  5 (mod 7) by roaster method of a set A (say):

where

x\in Z such that

x ≡ 5 (mod 7)

Then

A = {... -23, -16, -9, -2, 5, 12, 19, 26, ....}

(b) In set builder form,

A = {x\in Z: x = 5 - 7t,\ t\in Z}
