Answer:

Angles BCF and EFH

Step-by-step explanation:

When two parallel lines are crossed by another line (the transversal), the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles. DCF and GFC isn't the correct answer because those would be vertical angles. GFC and BCA would not be corresponding because they do not fall in matching corners. And same with EFH and BCA. Therefore, BCF and EFH would be corresponding.

One positive number is 14 less than another positive number. If the reciprocal of the smaller number is added to five times the

Kipish [7]

Let's call the two numbers $s$ and $l$ .

Given these variables, we can say: $s = l - 14$ , based on the first sentence in the problem.

Also, remember that the reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by the number. Thus, we can say that:

$\dfrac{1}{s} + 5\Big( \dfrac{1}{l} \Big) = \dfrac{1}{4}$

To solve, we can simply substitute $l -14$ in for $s$ in the second equation and solve.

$\dfrac{1}{l - 14} + \dfrac{5}{l} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

Set up

$\dfrac{l}{l(l - 14)} + \dfrac{5(l - 14)}{l(l - 14)} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

Get terms on the left side to a common denominator for easier addition

$\dfrac{l + 5l - 70}{l(l - 14)} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

Simplify

$4(6l - 70) = l(l - 14)$

Cross multiplication ( $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} \Rightarrow ad = bc$ )

$24l - 280 = l^2 - 14l$

Simplify

$l^2 - 38l + 280 = 0$

Subtract $24l - 280$ from both sides of the equation

$(l - 10)(l - 28) = 0$

Factor left side of the equation

$l = 10, 28$

Zero Product Property

Now, notice that we have found two solutions, but the problem is only asking for one. This <em>likely </em>means that one of our solutions is extraneous. Let's take a look. Remember that the smaller positive number is equal to 14 less than the larger number. However,

$s = 10 - 14 = -4$ ,

Since $s$ is not positive in this case, $l = 10$ is not a solution.

Thus, $l = 28$ is our only solution. In this case,

$s = 28 - 14 = 14$ ,

which means that the smaller number is 14 and the larger number is 28.

How do I find the displacement? Help frl

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

distance traveled: 30 m
displacement: 21.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the distance traveled and the displacement after walking 17 m south and 13 m east.

<h3>Distance</h3>

The distance traveled is the sum of the lengths of each leg of the trip:

17 m + 13 m = 30 m

You have traveled a distance of 30 m.

<h3>Displacement</h3>

The displacement is the distance from your final position to your starting position. If you draw a diagram of the journey, you see the displacement is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 17 m and 13 m. The Pythagorean theorem can help you find this length:

h = √(a² +b²)

h = √(17² +13²) = √(289 +169) = √458 ≈ 21.401

At the end of your walking, you are 21.4 m from where you started.
