Answer: The conditional statements are not in the correct form to make a conclusion using the law of syllogism. “If p, then q and if p, then r” cannot be used to draw a conclusion using the law of syllogism. The law of syllogism could be used if the hypothesis in the second statement was "if two pairs of congruent angles are formed."
Step-by-step explanation:
"If p, then q and if p, then r" cannot be used to draw a conclusion using the law of syllogism.
Neither of the conclusions of the conditional statements are the hypothesis of the other.
"If two pairs of congruent angles are formed" could be the hypothesis of the second statement.
** Both can be used to answer the question :)
Answer: y=12 x=28
Explanation:
x=Amount of Small Lanterns y=Amount of Large Lanterns
25x+40y=1180
x+y=40
x=40-y
25(40-y)+40y=1180
1000-25y+40y=1180
1000+15y=1180
15y=180
y=12
x+12=40
x=28
<span>12x = 7y-10y
12x = -3y
-4x= y
y = -4x</span>
The best answer for this question is A.
Best of luck.
