Answer:

The two hypotenuses.

Step-by-step explanation:

HL or Hypotenuse-Leg Theorem: two right triangles are congruent if and only if the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of the other right triangle.

Since we already know the bottom leg of each triangle is congruent, we only need to know the two hypotenuses.

On the ceiling of a cavern, a stalactite grows downward

Tcecarenko [31]

The stalactites become 0.004 + 0.006 = 0.01 inches closer each year, and begin 10 feet apart, or 120 inches apart.

let y be the distance between them, and x be the number of years that go by:
y = -0.01x + 120

We want to find where y = 0, where they meet:
0 = -0.01x + 120 Add 0.01x to both sides
0.01x = 120 Multiply both sides by 100
x = 12,000

The stalagmite and stalactite will meet in 12,000 years

A tub filled with 50 quarts of water empties at a rate of 2.5 quarts per minute. let w = quarts of water left in the tub and t =

Sholpan [36]

This is a linear relationship. The slope-intercept form of the linear equation is:

$y=mx+c$

Where,

m is the rate of change (positive if increasing rate and negative if decreasing rate)
c is the y intercept, or the initial value

Rate of change is 2.5 quarts per minute (it is decreasing so m is -2.5)

Initial value is 50 quarts, so c is 50.

Plugging in the values we get $y=-2.5x+50$ .

Changing variables to w instead of y and t instead of x, gives us,

$w=50-2.5t$ . Where w is warts of water left in the tub and t is the time in minutes.

There is no viable solution when t=30 because at t=20, w=0 ( $0=50-2.5(20)$ ). It means after 20 minutes, there is no water left. So t=30 minutes doesn't make sense.
