We are given that lines a and c intersect at point S. Translate line a down line c until point S reaches point Q. Call the new l

ine through Q line b. Because translations preserve orientation, lines a and b are ________. Because translations preserve angle measure, ∠RSU ≅ ∠RQU'. For the same reason, ∠RST ≅ ∠RQT', ∠PSU ≅ ∠PQU', and ∠PST ≅ ∠PQT'. Each of the angle pairs are corresponding angles. Therefore, corresponding angles are congruent

Answer:

The lines a and b are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

When we will translate line a, then the new line b will be formed.

Now, as translation preserves orientation each point on line a will be equidistant from line b , thus holding the condition and satisfying the property of two parallel lines.

Hence, line a and line b are parallel to each other.

Answer:

parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that translations preserve orientation, then the angle formed in the intersection of lines a and c, and in the intersection of lines b and c are the same. If two different lines form the same angle when intercepting a third different line, then they are parallel.

Answer:

  • equation: d(h) = 0.25|h -1600| -400
  • depth is 250 ft at 1000 ft and 2200 ft from the west edge

Step-by-step explanation:

The crater shape can be modeled by an absolute value function with a slope of 0.25. The vertex of the function will not be at (0, 0) but will be at (1600, -400). The usual methods of translating functions apply. Horizontal displacement of the vertex is subtracted from the independent variable; vertical displacement is added to the function value.

  d(h) = 0.25×|h -1600| -400

We know the horizontal displacement is 1600 ft, because the depth changes at a rate of 1/4 foot for each horizontal foot. A depth change of 400 feet will require 1600 horizontal feet to accomplish.

__

At a depth of 250 ft, the distance from the west edge can be found from ...

  -250 = 0.25|h -1600| -400

  150 = 0.25|h -1600| . . . . . . . . add 400

  600 = |h -1600| . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4

This resolves to two equations:

  • -600 = h -1600   ⇒   h = 1000
  • 600 = h -1600   ⇒   h = 2200

The depth is 250 ft at distances of 1000 ft and 2200 ft from the west edge.

_____

<em>Comment on the equation</em>

We have chosen to make depths be negative numbers. If you want the equation to give positive numbers for depth, multiply it by -1:

  d = 400 -0.25×|h -1600|

What percent of 84 is 12?
lozanna [386]
So here is what we have

12 is what we need

out of the 84 we have

so...

12/84= .1428571429

and lets check our work

.1428571429 X 84 = 12

now lets convert it to a percent

.1428571429 X 100 = 14.28571429%

so the answer is 

14.28571429%

KiRa [710]
You can solve the system of equations.

Multiply the first equation by -3 and add to the second equation.

                    -3x - 3y = -72
                    3x + 5y = 100
(add)     --------------------------
                            2y = 28

y = 14

x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 10

Answer:
There are 10 3-points questions and 14 5-point questions.

Check: 10 + 14 = 24   There are 24 questions
10 * 3 + 14 * 5 = 30 + 70 = 100   The total number of points is 100.
Our answer is correct.

All of the following expressions are equal to N except _____. |−N| −(−N) |N| −N
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

D. -N

Step-by-step explanation:

Our four given expressions are:

A. |-N|

B. -(-N)

C. |N|

D. -N

The | | symbols represent absolute value, which is the distance from the value within the two lines and 0; essentially since it measures distance, absolute value always outputs a positive value.

In choice A, we have |-N|, which means the distance between -N and 0. Well, the distance will simply be N, which is equal to N. Eliminate A.

In choice B, we have -(-N). Double negatives signal that they will cancel out to become positive, so -(-N) = N. Eliminate B.

In choice C, we have |N|, which means the distance between N and 0. This is clearly just N, so eliminate C.

In choice D, we have -N, which denotes "negative N". Clearly, "negative N" (-N) is not the same as "positive N" (N), so D is the answer.
