Answer: Choice A. $\angle T$

Explanation:

Notice how letters Q and T are in the middle of the sequences of PQR and STR respectively. This means the angles correspond.

Because the triangles are congruent, this means the corresponding pieces are congruent. Therefore, angle Q and angle T are the same measure.

As you can see, the order matters when it comes to forming congruence statements. Something like $\triangle PQR \cong \triangle STR$ is slightly different from $\triangle PQR \cong \triangle SRT$

Sanjay consulted three electricians about upgrading the wiring in his home. Each electrician uses a linear formula that incorpor

Reptile [31]

Answer:
b.Each electrician charges a different base fee:

Explanation:
Each of the equations has two parts:
1- base fee that is independent of any variable (this would be the number that has no variable next to it)
2- an hourly rate depending on the number of hours x (this would be the number that has an x next to it)

For the first electrician:
y = 25x + 30
base fee = $30
hourly rate = $25

For the second electrician:
y = 30x + 25
base fee = $25
hourly rate = $30

For the third electrician:
y = 25x + 20
base fee = $20
hourly rate = $25

Now, let's check the choices:
a.Each electrician charges a different hourly rate:
This is incorrect as electricians 1 and 3 charge the same hourly rate ($25)

b.Each electrician charges a different base fee:
This is correct as all three base fees are different ($30, $20 and $25)

c.All three electricians charge the same hourly rate:
This is incorrect as electrician 2 has a different hourly rate

d. All three electricians charge the same base fee:
This is incorrect as the base fees for the three electricians are different ($30, $25 and $20)

Hope this helps :)

Sav [38]

Answer:

79%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the median, you need to arrange the numbers in ascending order. Than pick the middle number. If there are two middle numbers then you add them together and then divide by 2.

In college basketball, some teams get most of their points from just one player, and other teams are more balanced in scoring. C

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

(B) At Maryland, the mean number of points per player per game is greater than the median number of points per player per game.

(D)The mean number of points per player per game is the same at all 3 schools.

Step-by-step explanation:

Baylor University

6 players who each score 12 points per game

6 players who each score 0 points per game.

The Scores are: 0,0,0,0,0,0,12,12,12,12,12,12

$Mean=\frac{0+0+0+0+0+0+12+12+12+12+12+12}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{12+0}{2}=6$

University of Maryland

1 player scores 58 points per game,

1 player scores 14 points per game,

The rest(10) of the players score 0 points per game.

The Scores are: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,14,58

$Mean=\frac{0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+14+58}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{0+0}{2}=0$

Dartmouth College

4 players score 5 points per game,

4 players score 6 points per game,

4 players score 7 points per game.

The Scores are: 5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7

$Mean=\frac{5+5+5+5+6+6+6+6+7+7+7+7}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{6+6}{2}=6$

The following applies:

(B) At Maryland, the mean number of points per player per game is greater than the median number of points per player per game.

(D)The mean number of points per player per game is the same at all 3 schools.

Miss Croft made snack bags for the picnic that contain three types of snacks: packages of crackers, packages of cookies, and can

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of cracker be a.

Let the cost of cookies be b.

Let the cost of candy bars be c.

From the question,

6a + 6b + 6c = $21

8a + 5b + 10c = $26

5a + 4b + 7c = $18.50

To solve this, we first pick any two pairs of equation. This will be:

6a + 6b + 6c = $21 ....... i

8a + 5b + 10c = $26 ....... ii

Multiply equation i by 8

Multiply equation ii by 6

48a + 48b + 48c = $168 ....... iii

48a + 30b + 60c = $156 ....... iv

Subtract equation iv from iii

18b - 12c = 12

We then pick another two pairs

8a + 5b + 10c = $26

5a + 4b + 7c = $18.50

Multiply equation i by 5

Multiply equation ii by 8

40a + 25b + 50c = $130

40a + 32b + 56c = $148

Subtract the equations

-7b - 6c = -18

Then, solve the new equations formed

18b - 12c = 12 ....... v

-7b - 6c = -18 ....... vi

Multiply equation i by -7

Multiply equation ii by 18

-126b + 84c = -84

-126b - 108c = -324

Subtract the equations

192c = 240

c = 240/129

c = $1.25

From equation v, put the value of c

18b - 12c = 12

18b - 12($1.25) = 12

18b - $15 = $12

18b = $27

b = $27/18

b = $1.5

Since,

6a + 6b + 6c = $21

6a + 6($1.5) + 6($1.25) = $21

6a + $9 + $7.5 = $21

6a + $16.5 = $21

6a = $21 - $16.5

6a = $4.5

a = $4.5/6

a = $0.75

One candy bar cost $1.25
