Answer:

16 $\geq$ x

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given tells us that students bring a maximum on 16 dollars for lunch. So the inequality would be 16 $\geq$ x , where x is the amount students bring. It's important to note the less than or equal to, since the statement says that 16 dollars is fine.

The length of a living room is 12 feet and its width is 1012 feet. The length of the room is being expanded by x feet. Choose an

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Option C. 10.5(12 + x) square feet

Option E. (126 + 10.5x) square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the original living room

we know that

The area of the original living room is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$L=12\ ft\\W=10\frac{1}{2}\ ft=10.5\ ft$

substitute

$A=(12)(10.5)=126\ ft^2$

step 2

Find the new area of the living room

The length of the room is being expanded by x feet

we have

$L=(12+x)\ ft\\W=10.5\ ft$

The new area is

$A=10.5(12+x)\ ft^2$

The expanded form of the expression is

Apply distributive property

$A=10.5(12)+10.5(x)\\A=(126+10.5x)\ ft^2$

Triangle congruence and similarly (picture included) SAS, ASA, SSS, or AAS?

N76 [4]

Answer:

SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

SAS Postulate: "If two sets of corresponding sides on two triangles and there included angle are congruent, then the triangles are similar".

We see that line segments XY-ST and XZ-SR are congruent along with the included angles X and S. Therefore, we can justify that SAS fits the situation.
