Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
For the trinomial to be a perfect square trinomial the coefficient for the x^2 term must. E a perfect square.
Letter C
Answer:
∠C ≅ ∠M or ∠B ≅ ∠L
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given an angle and its opposite side as being congruent. AAS requires two congruent angles and one side, so you need another set of congruent angles (one in each triangle). It does not matter which they are. The above-listed pairs are appropriate.*
_____
* Since the figure cannot be assumed to be drawn to scale, either of angles B or C could be declared congruent to either of angles L or M. However, it appears that angles B and L are opposite the longest side of the triangle, so it makes good sense to declare that pair congruent. The same congruence statement (ΔBCD≅ΔLMN) would result from declaring angles C and M congruent. So, either declaration will work (matches the last answer choice.)
__
AAS requires two angles and a side. One side is already marked, so we do not need any more information about sides. (The second and third answer choices can be rejected as irrelevant.)
Answer:his speed in still air is 6 miles per minute.
the speed of the wind is 1 mile per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent his speed in still air.
Let y represent the speed of the wind.
It takes Jack Frost 5 minutes to fly 35 miles with the wind. This means that his total speed would be x + y
Distance = speed × time
It means that
35 = 5(x + y)
35 = 5x + 5y - - - - - - - - - - -1
It takes him 7 minutes to go 35 miles against the wind. This means that his total speed would be x - y
It means that
35 = 7(x - y)
35 = 7x - 7y - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes
245 = 35x + 35y
175 = 35x - 35y
Adding both equations, it becomes
420 = 70x
x = 420/70 = 6
Substituting x = 6 into equation 1, it becomes
35 = 5 × 6 + 5y
35 = 30 + 5y
5y = 35 - 30 = 5
y = 5/5 = 1
