Answer: Choice B)

If corresponding angles are not congruent, then the lines are not parallel.

==================================================

Explanation:

The given conditional is in the form "If P, then Q"

where,

  • P = two lines are parallel
  • Q = corresponding angles are congruent

The P and Q are placeholders for those definitions shown above. So we'll simply do a "search and replace" to replace P and Q with those phrases. We do this shortening so that we can do logical operations.

Specifically, we'll do two things:

  1. Swap the positions of P and Q
  2. Place a "not" before each letter after the swap

We go from the format "if P, then Q" to "if not Q, then not P". Those two formats are equivalent in truth value. This is known as the contrapositive.

In terms of the problem at hand, the phrase "if not Q, then not P" becomes "If corresponding angles are not congruent, then the lines are not parallel"

-------------

In short, we swap each part of the original "if ..., then ..." statement, and stick "not"s in there to negate each piece.

People attending a football game either supported the home team or the visiting team. if 1369 of the people attending supported
Masja [62]

Given the number of the people attending the football game, the percentage supporters for the home team is 37%.

<h3>What is Percentage?</h3>

Percentage is simply number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

It is expressed as;

Percentage = ( Part / Whole ) × 100%

Given the data in the question;

  • Number of home team supporters nH = 1369
  • Number of visting team supporters nV = 2331
  • Percentage of supporters for home team PH = ?

For we determine the total number of people attending the football game;

nT = nH + nV

nT = 1369 + 2331

nT = 3700

Now, using the perecentage formula above, we find the Percentage of supporters for home team PH

Percentage = ( Part / Whole ) × 100%

PH = ( nH/ nT) × 100%

PH = ( 1369/ 3700) × 100%

PH = 0.37 × 100%

PH = 37%

Therefore, given the number of the people attending the football game, the percentage supporters for the home team is 37%.
