Explain why this common mistake is wrong. Many people might say that (2, 4) is an intercept of the equation 5x + 2y = 18.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,4) is point lying on the line represented by 5x + 2y  = 18.

They are not intercepts.

x-intercept is point where the line crosses the x-axis and so, y-co ordinate at x-intercept is 0.

y-intercept is point where the line crosses they-axis and so,x-co ordinate at y-intercept is 0.

5x + 2y = 18

To find x-intercept, put y = 0 in the equation

           5x = 18

             x = 18/5

             x = 3.6

To find y-intercept, put x = 0 in the equation

          2y = 18

             y = 18/2

             y = 9

x-intercept : (3.6 , 0)

y-intercept :(0, 9)

. How can you know if 2 shapes are congruent? Draw an example of 2 congruent triangles and label how you know.

Triangle ABC and triangle DEF are congruent by the SAS Congruence Postulate

<h3>What are congruent triangles?</h3>

Two triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and their corresponding sides are also congruent.

We can say that two triangles are congruent using these 5 rules:

1: SSS or the side, side, side rule, that means that we have two triangles with all three sides equal.

2. SAS or side, angle, side states that in the two triangles, two sides and the included angle are equal.

3. ASA or angle, side, angle states that in two triangles, the two angles and the included side are equal.

4. AAS or angle, angle, side states that we have two triangles where two angles and the non-included side are equal.

5. HL or the Hypotenuse Leg rule states that, if the hypotenuse and one leg of one right-angled triangle are equal to the corresponding hypotenuse and leg of another right-angled triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Two triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and their corresponding sides are also congruent.

Example:-From the diagram, given that:

AB = DE, BC = EF and ∠B = ∠E

Triangle ABC and triangle DEF are congruent by the SAS Congruence Postulate

Complete the statement.<br><br><br><br><br>Since angle B is the largest angle, is the side.
postnew [5]

Answer:

<em>∠B is the largest interior angle of the triangle, and AC is the</em><em> largest</em><em> side.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Relationship of sides to interior angles in a triangle-

  1. The shortest side of a triangle is always opposite to the smallest interior angle.
  2. The longest side of a triangle is always opposite to the largest interior angle.

So converse of the second property is the side opposite to the largest interior angle is always the largest side.

As ∠B is the largest interior angle of the triangle, so its opposite side which is AC will be the largest side.

Kruka [31]

(a) The  percentage of married couple households that are one native, one foreign is 7.3%

(b) The number of married couple households that are one native, one foreign is 4,051,500

(a) Percentage =100%-(79.5%+13.2%)

Percentage =100%-92.7%

Percentage =7.3%

(b)Number of married couple households =7.3%*55,500,000

(b)Number of married couple households =4,051,500

Inconclusion:

(a) The  percentage of married couple households that are one native, one foreign is 7.3%

(b) The number of married couple households that are one native, one foreign is 4,051,500
