Answer:

(i) In △ABD and △ACD,

AB=AC ....(since △ABC is isosceles)

AD=AD ....(common side)

BD=DC ....(since △BDC is isosceles)

ΔABD≅ΔACD .....SSS test of congruence,

∴∠BAD=∠CAD i.e. ∠BAP=∠PAC .....[c.a.c.t]......(i)

(ii) In △ABP and △ACP,

AB=AC ...(since △ABC is isosceles)

AP=AP ...(common side)

∠BAP=∠PAC ....from (i)

△ABP≅△ACP .... SAS test of congruence

∴BP=PC ...[c.s.c.t].....(ii)

∠APB=∠APC ....c.a.c.t.

(iii) Since △ABD≅△ACD

∠BAD=∠CAD ....from (i)

So, AD bisects ∠A

i.e. AP bisects∠A.....(iii)

In △BDP and △CDP,

DP=DP ...common side

BP=PC ...from (ii)

BD=CD ...(since △BDC is isosceles)

△BDP≅△CDP ....SSS test of congruence

∴∠BDP=∠CDP ....c.a.c.t.

∴ DP bisects∠D

So, AP bisects ∠D ....(iv)

From (iii) and (iv),

AP bisects ∠A as well as ∠D.

(iv) We know that

∠APB+∠APC=180

∘

....(angles in linear pair)

Also, ∠APB=∠APC ...from (ii)

∴∠APB=∠APC=

2

180

∘

=90

∘

BP=PC and ∠APB=∠APC=90

∘

Hence, AP is perpendicular bisector of

Answer:

a = 29

u = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

32 + 7u + 9 + 2a - 3 = 3a + 7u + 9

32 + 2a - 3 = 3a

a = 29

3(29) + 7u + 9 = 180

7u = 180 - 96

7u = 84

u = 12

Answer:

Columbian exchange. Tell a story in chronological order of the changes that the community undergoes as it and the communities around it make contact with Europeans over a span of roughly 50 to 100 years.

This section is worth 20 points. See the scoring rubric for more details on how you

will be graded

Use the evidence you gathered to tell the story of a hypothetical indigenous

community in the Americas and its experience involving the Columbian Exchange.

Come up with a community whose circumstances are typical of many in Central

America, the West Indies, or another part of the Americas that had direct contact with

Europeans. Tell the story in chronological order, but feel free to skip whole years or

decades so that you can cover each of the important topics related to the activity: the

availability of goods, the effects of disease, and the impact of European culture

(language and religion, for example), at the very least.

Think of your story as more of a summary than a work of fiction; you must cover a

large span of time in few words. Base the details of the story on factual evidence and

cite your sources, but keep in mind that the text should be written as a story, not as

an essay with a conventional introduction, body, and conclusion. Aim for about 700

to 1,200 words.

Solution of the equation<br> 3x/5+1=4x/15+7
Anika [276]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{3x}{5} + 1 = \frac{4x}{15} + 7 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

\frac{3x}{5} = \frac{4x}{15} + 6

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions

9x = 4x + 90 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 90 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 18

Eli wanted to order candy online. Company A is offering 2 1/2 pounds of chocolate for $32.00. How much is Company A charging per
Komok [63]

Answer:

Therefore, Company B is offering the lowest price/lb at $12.73/lb.

So, Company A's price / lb = ($32.50/2.5lbs) = $13.00/lb

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine price per lb, divide dollar amount by lbs.

- Company A sells 2 1/2lbs (2.5lbs) for $32.50

- Company B sells 2 3/4lbs (2.75lbs) for $35.00

And, Company B's price / lb = ($35.00/2.75lbs) = $12.73/lb
