The correct question is
<span>Melissa is helping her dad build a walkway in their backyard. The walkway will be 54 feet long and 1.5 feet wide. The local hardware store sells tiles which are 1.5 by 1.5 feet and come in boxes of 12 How many boxes of tiles do they need?

we know that
area of </span>a walkway=long*wide-----> 54*1.5-----> 81 ft²

area of one tlie=1.5*1.5-----> 2.25 ft²

find the numbers of tiles required
by proportion
1/2.25=x/81
x=81/2.25------> x=36 tiles

find the numbers of boxes required
by proportion
1/12=x/36
x=36/12------> x=3 boxes

the answer is
3 boxes

I put D since I believe HL applies here but am not sure. Could anybody please help?

<h3>Answer:  B) II and III</h3>

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

Explanation:

Check out the diagram below.

On the left side shows ASA can be used to prove the triangles congruent. Note the color coding to see how the angles match up. Also note that the segment TR is between angles STR and SRT. The order is important because ASA is different from AAS.

Angle STR = Angle VTU because they are vertical angles

Angle SRT = Angle VUT since they are alternate interior angles. Note how SR is parallel to UV. If the lines weren't parallel, then the alternate interior angles would not be congruent.

We can use AAS because if we know two angles of a triangle, we can find the third angle. Despite the fact that something like RST looks like a right angle, we don't have enough info to say it is or not. The square angle marker is missing. So it could be 90 degrees, or it might be something like 89 degrees instead. We don't have enough info. So we cannot use HL.

AAA or AA is not a congruence theorem. It's a similarity theorem. So we cross this off the list.

A cart is coasting past Gordon. As it passes, he exerts a force on it. Whether the cart speeds up, slows down, or changes direct
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Direction

Step-by-step explanation:

Whether the car slows down or speeds up depends on the direction of the force applied, because if Gordon applied the force opposite the direction of the cart's movement, then the cart will slow down. If however, the force is applied in the direction of the carts movement, then the cart will speed up.

{4x+2y=10<br> y=2x-1<br><br>What is the value of x+y<br><br>A.3.125<br>B.2<br>C.4.5<br>D.3.5​
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

D.3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+2y=10(given)

2x+y=5

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

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

Since the left side of the equations are the the same,

5-2x=2x-1

4x=6

x=1.5

Sub x=1.5 into eq(1),

y = 5-2(1.5) = 5-3 = 2

so, x+y = 1.5+2 = 3.5
