Triangle ABC is similar to triangle QRS by the AA Similarity Postulate. Also, m∠A = 72° and m∠S = 56°. What is m∠B?
White raven [17]

∠B = 52°

Since the triangles are similar then

∠C = ∠S = 56°

∠B = 180° - (72 + 56)° = 52°

Mark incorrectly solved the inequality -4(5/2+3/2x) > 8. His work is shown. Which step shows an error based on the inequality
aliya0001 [1]

Answer : The incorrect step is, (A) step 1: -10 + 6x > 8

Step-by-step explanation :

The given expression is:

-4(\frac{5}{2}+\frac{3}{2}x)>8

Now solving this expression step by step.

First -4 distributed over parentheses.

(-4\times \frac{5}{2})+(-4\times \frac{3}{2}x)>8

Now solving bracket term, we get:

-10-6x>8

Now taking like terms together, we get:

-6x>8+10

-6x>18

-x>3

Now multiplying this expression by (-1), we get:

x>-3

Thus, the incorrect step is, (A) step 1: -10 + 6x > 8

Mrs. Eaton's class is participating in the "Box Tops for Education" campaign. On the first day, her
storchak [24]
Each colection day: D
Number of tops collected on that day: N

D1=1; N1=2
D2=3; N2=8

1) Linear model
N-N1=m(D-D1)

m=(N2-N1)/(D2-D1)
m=(8-2)/(3-1)
m=(6)/(2)
m=3

N-N1=m(D-D1)
N-2=3(D-1)
N-2=3D-3
N-2+2=3D-3+2
N=3D-1

when D=6:
N=3(6)-1
N=18-1
N=17

<span>What is the number of tops collected on the sixth day based on the linear model?
</span>The number of tops collected on the sixth day based on the linear model is 17.

2) Exponential model
N=a(b)^D
D=D1=1→N=N1=2→2=a(b)^1→2=ab→ab=2   (1)

D=D2=3→N=N2=8→8=a(b)^3→8=a(b)^(1+2)
8=a(b)^1(b)^2→8=ab(b)^2   (2)

Replacing (1) in (2)
(2) 8=2(b)^2
Solving for b:
8/2=2(b)^2/2
4=(b)^2
sqrt(4)=sqrt( b)^2 )
2=b
b=2

Replacing b=2 in (1)
(1) ab=2
a(2)=2
Solving for a:
a(2)/2=2/2
a=1

Then, the exponential model is N=1(2)^D
N=(2)^D

When D=6:
N=(2)^6
N=64

<span>What is the number of tops collected on the sixth day based on the exponential model?
</span><span>The number of tops collected on the sixth day based on the exponential model is 64</span>
