Answer:

The age of Sue could be 7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenny is 8 years older than twice her cousin Sue's age.

The first equation will be :

J = 8 + 2S ---------(1)

The sum of their ages is less than 32.

The second equation will be :

J + S < 32  ----------------(2)

Now rearrange both equations :

8 + 2S + S < 32

3S < 32 - 8

3S < 24

S < 24/3

S < 8

S = 7

The age of Sue could be 7 years.

Jonathons piggy bank contains 20 nickels 30 quarters and 50 one dollar coins. He picks 20 coins from the bank at random
fredd [130]

Answer:

All in all, Jonathan's piggy bank contains 100 coins. Among these coins, only 50 are one-dollar coins. Therefore, the theoretical probability of picking one-dollar coin from the piggy bank is equal to 50/100 or 1/2.  

Similarly, from the experiment, 20 coins were picked and among these there are 12 one-dollar coins. The answer to the second question is therefore 12/20 or 3/5.

What additional information could be used to prove ΔEFG ΔE'F'G' using AAS? Check all that apply. EG = 12 and E'G' = 12 FG = 15 a
Dafna1 [17]

By definition, congruent triangles should have all the corresponding sides and all the corresponding angles equal or congruent to each other. Thus, in the given question, all corresponding sides and angles of ΔEFG and ΔE'F'G' should be congruent. But, as we can see clearly it is given that, EF = 10 and E'F'= 12, thus, the corresponding sides EF and E'F' are not equal. Thus, we can never prove that:

\Delta EFG\cong\Delta E'F'G'

Thus, \Delta EFG\ncong\Delta E'F'G'
