Answer: A = 317

B = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation can be gotten from the question given. This will be:

A + B = 379 ........ i

A - B = 255 ........ ii

From equation i, make A the subject of the formula

A = 379 - B ...... iii

Put the value of A in iii into equation ii

A - B = 255

(379 - B) - B = 255

379 - B - B = 255

379 - 2B = 255

2B = 379-255

2B = 124

B = 124/2

B = 62 tons

Since A + B = 379

A + 62 = 379

A = 379 - 62

A = 317 tons

What is 1/2 + 1/6, please explain, I'm very bad at math
Masja [62]

Answer:

Before adding, we need to make sure the denominators are the same. We can do so by multiplying the fraction by a common multiple. In this case, 3 is a multiple of 6, so we can change 1/2 to 3/6. 3/6 is still equal to 1/2, so nothing changes.

Now we have 3/6+1/6, which is 4/6 (add the numerator).

4/6 can be simplified to 2/3 and 2 is a multiple of 4 and 6.

So, therefore, the answer is 2/3.

SOLUTION

From the question given the following statements to prove are correct, then the last part

\Delta RSU\cong\Delta TSV

The reason is Side-side-side triangle theorem

This theorem states that all three sides of a triangle are congruent (identical) to the corresponding sides of another triangle, then the triangles themselves are also congruent.

Hence the answer is Side-side-side triangle theorem
