This is known as Einstein's proof, not because he was the first to come up with it, but because he came up with it as a 15 year old boy.
Here the problem is justification step 2. The written equation
BC ÷ DC = BC ÷ AC
is incorrect, and wouldn't get us our statement 2, which is correct.
For similar triangles we have to carefully pair the corresponding parts to get our ratios right:
ABC ~ BDC means AB:BD = BC:DC = AC:BC so BC/DC=AC/BC.
Justification 2 has the final division upside down.
Brandy got 1162 scoring for competing in the bonus round of the particular game show.
Step-by-step explanation:
- By getting the 523 scores in the literature questions sections a 639 point in the automobile section. next could be the bonus round.
- So the score she obtained so far to compete in the bonus round is found by the addition of the two scores.
- The addition of 523 and 639 gives us 1162 which is the score for entering the bonus round.
Answer:
The answer is y=6x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
X=cost per hamburgurs
y=cost per hot dog
200x+150y=1450
200x+250y=1750
we can multiply first equation by -1 and add to 2nd
-200x-150y=-1450
<u>200x+250y=1750 +</u>
0x+100y=300
100y=300
divide both sides by 100
y=3
sub back
200x+150y=1450
200x+150(3)=1450
200x+450=1450
minus 450 both sides
200x=1000
divide both sides by 200
x=5
the cost of a hamburgur is $5
the cost of a hot dog is $3
