Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statements:                                                           Reasons:

\displaystyle 1)\text{ } \Delta APB \text{ and } \Delta AQC \text{ are equilateral triangles}      Given

\displaystyle 2) \text{ } m \angle PAB = 60                                                     Definition of equilateral.

3)\text{ } m \angle QAC = 60                                                     Definition of equilateral.

4)\text{ } m\angle PAB = m\angle QAC                                          Substitution

5)\text{ } m\angle PAC=m\angle PAB+m\angle BAC                       Angle Addition

\displaystyle 6)\text{ } m\angle QAB=m\angle QAC+m\angle BAC                       Angle Addition

7)\text{ } m\angle QAB=m\angle PAB+m\angle BAC                       Substitution

\displaystyle 8)\text{ } m\angle PAC=m\angle QAB                                         Substitution

9)\text{ } PA=BA                                                          Definition of equilateral

10)\text{ } AC=AQ                                                        Definition of equilateral

\displaystyle 11)\text{ } \Delta PAC \cong \Delta BAQ                                            Side-Angle-Side Congruence*

\displaystyle 12)\text{ } PC=BQ                                                        CPCTC

* SAS Congruence:

PA = BA

∠PAC = ∠QAB

AC = AQ

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>In ΔAPB and ΔAQC</u>,

PA = PB

anglePAC = angleQAB

AC = AQ

therefore, <u>ΔAPC </u><u>≅</u><u> ΔAQB by SAS congruency</u>.

So by CPCT,

PC = PQ. <u>proved</u>..

Two of them are drawn simultaneously from a deck of 48 cards.
Elina [12.6K]

The required probability is
a) both are cups is 0.05

b) At least one cup is 0.19

c) One is a cup and the other is a sword is   0.06

<h3 /><h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.

a) for both are cups

P= 12*11/48*47
p = 0.05

b) for  At least one cup
p = 12*36/48*47
p = 0.19

c) for One is a cup and the other is a sword
p = 12*12/48*47
p = 0.06

Thus, the required probability is 0.05, 0.19, 0.06

Please can anyone help answer this question? It would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.667

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle in a circle = 360°

Area of total shaded parts = 60 + 60 = 120°

Area of total unshaded parts = 360-120 = 240°

Probability that a random selected point within the circle falls in the unshaded area

= 240/360

= 2/3

≈ 0.667

I apologize in advance if I made a mistake.

Write an equation of a line in point-slope form that has a slope of -2 and passes through (5, -1).
gavmur [86]

Answer:

y+1=-2(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a line in 3 different forms including slope intercept, point-slope, and standard depending on the information we have. We have a point given and a slope from the equation. We will chose point-slope since we have a point and the slope.  

We will substitute m=-2 and x_1=5\\y_1=-1.

y-(-1)=-2 (x-5)

y+1=-2(x-5)

This is the equation of the line with slope -2 that passes through (5,-1).

Topic: Absolute Value Equations and Inequalities
jolli1 [7]

The values of  x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions

<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>

The equation is given as:

2|x + 7|= x - 8

Expand the absolute bracket

|2x + 14|= x - 8

Remove the absolute bracket

2x + 14 = x - 8 and 2x + 14 = -x + 8

Evaluate the like terms

x = -22 and 3x = -6

This gives

x = -22 and x = -2

Hence, the values of  x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions
