Answer:
Segment BF = 16 is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, DE is parallel to BC, so DE will divide AB and AC proportionally.
Hence,
⇒ 
{Since, given that AE = 12, EC = 18 and AD = 6}
⇒ BD = 9.
Again, since, EF is parallel to AB, so EF will divide BC and AC proportionally.
Hence, 
⇒ 
{Since, given that AE = 12, EC = 18 and FC= 24}
⇒ BF = 16.
Therefore, segment BF = 16 is true. (Answer)

Answer:
D) 130 workers
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation, <em>y = 2x + 40</em>, and <em>y, 300</em> (since the y-coordinate represents the # of bottles made), so we can solve for x, <em>the number of workers needed</em>.
Substitute: <em>300 = 2x + 40</em>
Subtract: <em>260 = 2x</em>
Divide: <em>x = 130</em>
Since x = 130 when y = 300, 130 workers are required to make 300 bottles in a day.
There are infinitely many ways to do this. One such way is to draw a very thin stretched out rectangle (say one that is very tall) and a square. Example: the rectangle is 100 by 2, while the square is 4 by 4.
Both the rectangle and the square have the same corresponding angle measures. All angles are 90 degrees.
However, the figures are not similar. You cannot scale the rectangle to have it line up with the square. The proportions of the sides do not lead to the same ratio
100/4 = 25
2/4 = 0.5
so 100/4 = 2/4 is not a true equation. This numerically proves the figures are not similar.
side note: if you are working with triangles, then all you need are two pairs of congruent corresponding angles. If you have more than three sides for the polygon, then you'll need to confirm the sides are in proportion along with the angles being congruent as well.
