Answer:

<h3>147.6 pounds of food</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Each box weighed 16.4pounds, if the volunteers packed 9 boxes, we need to calculate the total pounds of food collected. Using the equality postulate;

1 box = 16.4 pounds

9 boxes = x pounds of food

Cross multiply;

1 * x = 9 * 16.4

x = 147.6 pounds of food

Hence the volunteers collected 147.6 total pounds of food

Answer: A- Selena is incorrect because she should have substituted the values for the variables first, and then simplifed

i just took the test. i know that drake is correct because his finale answer was -1/2 and Selenas finale answer was 1/2 if she would have substituted her vaules before simplifying she would have gotten the answer 1/-2 instead of -1/-2 which resulted in her finale answer to be 1/2

Tell whether the pair of polygons is similar. Explain why or why not. (3 points) I get the general idea of this but I’m having t
masha68 [24]

Answer:

PQRS and TUVW are similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are give two polygons.

Sides of first polygon are :

PQ = 8 ft

QR= 13ft

RS = 8ft

PS = 13ft.

Sides of second polygon:

TW = 2.4 ft

TU = 5.2 ft

UV = 2.4 ft

VW = 5.2 ft.

We can see that PQRS and TUVW are parallelograms.

Note: <em>If an angle of a parallelogram is equal to an angle of another parallelogram then parallelograms would be similar.</em>

We can see that <Q ≅ <T = 120°.

<h3>Therefore, PQRS and TUVW are similar.</h3>
