Answer:
11 73/78 ≈ 11.9359 (not 14)
Step-by-step explanation:
The similarity statement tells us ...
QS/QR = FG/FH
QS = QR·FG/FH
13x -14 = 154(55/60) = 847/6
Adding 14 = 84/6, we have ...
13x = 931/6
x = 931/78 = 11 73/78 . . . . . . . divide by 13

<em>Comment on the question</em>
You get a nice integer answer for x if the similarity statement is written ...
∆FGH ~ ∆QRS . . . . . . . note the letters are in alphabetical order
Then you have ...
QS/QR = FH/FG
13x -14 = 154(60/55) = 168
13x = 182
x = 14
This nice answer to a nice similarity statement leads us to believe the question has an error in it.
We suspect you are expected to provide x=14 as the answer, even though that is NOT the answer to the question <em>as written</em>. You may want to discuss this with your teacher.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add 0 to anything, you do not have anything new when you are finished. A is an identity.
When you multiply 1 times anything, you do not get anything new. B is an identity
When you switch the order of two numbers and they are not affected by signs, then you are using the commutative property of addition. Nothing changes. C is an identity.
D is the problem child. Nothing I can think of right now will not change will you add 1 to it. If you can think of something that doesn't change when you add one to it, please put it in the comments. Otherwise, D is not an identity.
