Answer:
Given that JN was bisected, JL ≅ LN
Given that KM was bisected, KL ≅ ML
∠JLK ≅ ∠MLN because of vertical angles.
∠JLK is contained by JL and KL.
∠MLN is contained by ML and LN.
Therefore ΔJKL ≅ ΔNML by the SAS postulate.
Step-by-step explanation:
The SAS postulate states that when you know two triangles have an equal angle, and that angle is formed by two sides that are equal in both triangles, the two triangles are congruent.
When a line is bisected, it means it was cut in two equal parts.
Since two lines were bisected and each form a side in the triangles, two sides are congruent.
The contained angles, ∠JLK and ∠MLN, are equal because of vertical angles. Vertical angles occur when two straight lines intersect. Angles that are opposite to each other are equal in all cases.
Number 19 you are comparing one measurement to another. Since it says 1/2 inch equals 4 ft, we want to find out how many more inches are needed if the given scale was 2/3 = 4 ft. Now lets find a common denominator for both scales stated in inches. We have 2/3 inch and 1/2 inch. Our denominator are the bottom parts of the fraction where we need to find a common factor for the denominator so we can add or subtract fractions. We have a 3 and a 2. You may always use the multiplication between two denominators to find a common factor such as 3 times 2 which equals 6 for both denominators. Now we multiplied the 3 by 2 to get 6 so the top part (numerator needs to be multiplied the the 2 because we changed the bottom part by 2 as well. You should notice that when you reduce your fraction now 4/6 is 2/3. Just a self check example there. As for 1/2 we multiplied a 3 to get 6 for the denominator so we need to multiply the numerator by 3 as well. You now should have 4/6 and 3/6. Since the question asks for how many more inches we need to subtract 4/6 from 3/6 and we get 1/6 inch for our answer.
Answer:
Eric's expression is :
and Andrea's is :
In Eric's expression, 20 represents the initial amount of substance with which he has started the experiment. 
is the amount of substance left after each time period (in this case, each week).The variable w in this case represents the number of weeks.
Andrea's expression can be written as :
The one outside of parentheses represents the initial amount of the substance. The one inside of parentheses represents 100% of the original amount of the substance. 0.5 represents the 50% of the substance that is lost each time period. The variable w in this case represents the number of weeks.
Slope is change in y over the change in x.
Slope = (-7 - 2) / (-1 -2)
Slope = -9/-3
Slope = 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of equivalent expressions to the function 
. For example:
Factor:
If you add the terms inside the parentheses:
Basically you can add the like terms from the start and get the same result.
Therefore:
