Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Statement                                           Reason

ΔWZX and ΔYZX are                         Given

right angled triangles

WX = YX                                              Given

XZ ≅ XZ                                               Reflexive property. The reflexive  

                                                            property of congruence states that              

                                                            any shape is congruent to itself.

∠XZW = ∠XZY                                     Definition of right angle.

∠XWZ = ∠XYZ                                     Definition of isosceles triangle.

                                                             Triangle XYW forms a right angled  

                                                             triangle since YX = WX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW = 180°           Sum of angles in triangle WZX

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ = 180°            Sum of angles in triangle YZX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

∠XYZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZY =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

∠WXZ = ∠YXZ                                  Simplification

A kangaroo hops 2 kilometers in 3 minutes. At this rate, how far does the kangaroo travel in 2 minutes? *
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

At a speed of 2 km every 3 minutes, in 2 minutes the kangaroo would travel 1,333 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a kangaroo hops 2 kilometers in 3 minutes, to calculate how much distance this animal hops in 2 minutes, the following calculation should be performed:

2 km / 3 min = 0.666 km per minute (2/3 x 2)

0.666 km per minute x 2 minutes = 1.333 kilometers in 2 minutes (0.666 x 2)

Therefore, at a speed of 2 km every 3 minutes, in 2 minutes the kangaroo would hop 1,333 km.

Need help with Algebra 2! Thank you! :)
Olin [163]

Answer:

Consider the parent logarithm function f(x) = log(x)

Now,

Let us make transformations in the function f(x) to get the function g(x)

•On streching the graph of f(x) = log(x) , vertically by a factor of 3, the graph of y = 3log(x) is obtained.

•Now, shrinking the graph of y = 3log(x) horizontally by a fctor of 2 to get the grpah of y = 3log(x/2) i.e the graph of g(x)

Hence, the function g(x) after the parent function f(x) = log(x) undergoes a vertical stretch by a factor of 3, and a horizontal shrink by a factor of 2 is

g(x) = 3 log(x/2) (Option-B).

Please help!!! If the first 4 terms of a geometric sequence are...
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

c.) aₙ = 5 × 4ⁿ⁻¹

Explanation:

Geometric sequence: aₙ = a(r)ⁿ⁻¹

where 'a' resembles first term of a sequence, 'r' is the common difference.

Here sequence: 5, 20, 80, 320,...

First term (a) = 5

Common difference (d) = second term ÷ first term = 20 ÷ 5 = 4

Hence putting into equation: aₙ = 5(4)ⁿ⁻¹
