Answer-

The value of y is 6 units.

Solution-

Given ∆ABC ≅ ∆GEF

If two triangles are congruent, then the corresponding sides are also congruent.

So,

EF = BC, GF = AC

Putting the values,

$\Rightarrow x-y=4$ --------------1

$\Rightarrow x-8=2$

$\Rightarrow x=10$ --------------------2

Putting the values of x in equation 1,

$\Rightarrow 10-y=4$

$\Rightarrow y=10-4=6$

Therefore, the value of y is 6 units.

Given:

It is recommended that adults consume at least 1,000 mg of calcium every day.

$25x+200y\geq 1000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, x be the quantity of milk in ounces and y be the quantity of cheddar cheese in ounces.

A person meets the recommendation, if

$25x+200y\geq 1000$

For option A,

Substitute x=50 and y=2 in the given inequality.

$25(50)+200(2)\geq 1000$

$1250+400\geq 1000$

$1650\geq 1000$

This statement is true. So, option A is correct.

Similarly,

For option B,

Substitute x=0 and y=4.5 in the given inequality.

$25(0)+200(4.5)\geq 1000$

$900\geq 1000$

This statement is false. So, option B is incorrect.

For option C,

Substitute x=10 and y=3 in the given inequality.

$25(10)+200(3)\geq 1000$

$850\geq 1000$

This statement is false. So, option C is incorrect.

For option D,

Substitute x=39 and y=0 in the given inequality.

$25(39)+200(0)\geq 1000$

$975\geq 1000$

This statement is false. So, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, the correct option is only A.

An ice cream stand uses the expression 2 + 0.5x2+0.5x2, plus, 0, point, 5, x to determine the cost (in dollars) of an ice cream

Rashid [163]

Answer:

An ice cream cone with 5 scoops cost is, $4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

An ice cream stand uses the expression $2+0.5x$ to determine the cost of an ice cream cone that has x scoops of ice cream.

⇒ Cost of an ice cream cone C(x) = $2+0.5x$ .....[1]

Given: x = 5 scoops

We have to find the cost of an ice cream cone with 5 scoops cost.

Substitute the given value of x =5 in [1] we have;

C(5) = $2+0.5(5)$

C(5) = $2+0.5 \times 5$ = 2 + 2.5 = $4.5

Therefore, an ice cream cone with 5 scoops cost is, $4.5

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1) A is a cat; B is a dog; C is a cat; D is a dog; E is a dog; F is a cat

2) A lives with B in a yellow house; C lives with D in a blue house; E lives with F in a red house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: First we identify the animals as cats or dogs

A is a cat

B is a Dog

Since B can live with C, C is a cat

Since D can live with A, D is a dog

F is a cat since it can live with D

E is therefore, a dog

Step 2: We then identify the house each two animals live in pairs of a cat and a dog

D lives in a blue house

A lives in a yellow house since it does not live with D or in a red house

C lives with D in a blue house since D does not live with either A or F

E lives in a red house since it does not live with A or in a yellow house

F lives with E in a red house since E does not live with A

Therefore, B lives with A in a yellow house

Nuetrik [128]

C. The way the sample was chosen may overrepresent or underrepresent students taking certain language classes.

The samples he chose may not be a representative sample because the number of students per foreign language class may not be the same. Since classes have different numbers of students, one may have a very large number of students while another may have only a few. Taking equal number of students per class is not a representative sample because it doesn't represent the students correctly.
