Mike is cycling from the library to his home. The equation shows Mike's distance (y), in miles, from his home after x minutes: y

= 12 − 2x What does the number 12 in the equation represent?

"12" represents Mike's original distance from his home.  As he rides, this distance decreases by 2 miles/minute  (which is rather unlikely, as that'd be 120 mph).

The triangles that are similar would be ΔGCB and ΔPEB  due to Angle, Angle, Angle similarity theorem.

<h3>How to identify similar triangles?</h3>

From the image attached, we see that we are given the Parallelogram GRPC. Thus;

A.  The triangles that are similar would be ΔGCB and ΔPEB  due to Angle, Angle, Angle similarity theorem.

B. The proof of the fact that ΔGCB and ΔPEB are similar pairs of triangles is as follow;

∠CGB ≅ ∠PEB  (Alternate Interior Angles)

∠BPE ≅ ∠BCG  (Alternate Interior Angles)

∠GBC ≅ ∠EBP  (Vertical Angles)

C.  To find the distance from B to E and from P to E, we will first find PE and then BE by proportion;

225/325 = PE/375  

PE = 260 ft

BE/425 = 225/325  

BE = 294 ft

The ratios of corresponding sides in the two triangles are equal. What other information is needed to prove that △FGE ~ △IJH by
schepotkina [342]

solution: option B and C both are correct i.e., option C is correct i.e., ∠E ≅∠H and ∠I ≅ ∠F .

option C is correct i.e., ∠E ≅∠H.

explanation:

it is given that ratio of corresponding sides of ΔFGE and ΔIJH are equal

i.e.,  

\frac{GE}{JH}=\frac{EF}{HI}

and if ∠E ≅ ∠H

Then ΔFGE and ΔIJH are similar by SAS (side angle side) similarity theorem.  

so option C is correct i.e.,  ∠E ≅ ∠H.

and option B is also correct

explanation:

since it is given that

\frac{FG}{IJ}=\frac{EF}{HI}

And if ∠I ≅ ∠F

then  ΔFGE and ΔIJH are similar by SAS (side angle side) similarity theorem.

What is the equation of the line whose slope is 3 that passes through the point (-1, 5).
sergey [27]
We knownthe equation of a line is y = mx + b. where m is slope and b is y intercept.

the point slope equation of a line is y - y1 = m (x - x1)

plug in x1 and y1 and m
y- (5) = (3)(x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3x + 3
y = 3x + 8
