∠STP ≅ ∠QTR is the True statement ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

In any rectangle

1. Each two opposite sides are equal and parallel

2. The measure of its vertex angles is 90°

3. The two diagonals are equal

Now lets find the true statements

∵ PQRS is a rectangle

∴ PS = QR ⇒ opposite sides

∴ PQ = SR ⇒ opposite sides

∴ PR = QS ⇒ diagonals

A. ∠PSQ ≅ ∠QSR

∵ The diagonals of the rectangle do not bisect the vertex angles

∴ AQ does not bisect angle S

∴ m∠PSQ ≠ m∠QSR

∴ ∠PSQ not congruent ∠QSR

∠PSQ ≅ ∠QSR ⇒ False

B. segment SR ≅ segment RQ

∵ SR and RQ are two adjacent sides

∵ The adjacent side in the rectangle not equal

∴ SR ≠ QR

∴ segment SR not congruent to segment RQ

segment SR ≅ segment RQ ⇒ False

C. ∠STP ≅ ∠QTR

∵ PR intersects QS at point T

∴ m∠STP = m∠QTR ⇒ vertically opposite angles

∴ ∠STP ≅ ∠QTR

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR ⇒ True

D. segment PS ≅ segment PR

∵ PS is a side in the rectangle

∵ PR is a diagonal in the rectangle

∵ The side of the rectangle not equal the diagonal of the rectangle

∴ PS ≠ PR

∴ segment PS not congruent to segment PR

segment PS ≅ segment PR ⇒ False

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR is the True statement

2 sandwiches and 3 croissants costs £11.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The price of a sandwich is £2.5 and the price of a croissant is £2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the number of sandwiches and c be the number of croissants

Then according to given statements the equations will be:

$2s+3c = 11\ \ \ \ \ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\3s+6c =19.50\ \ \ Eqn\ 2$

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and subtracting equation 2 from the new equation

$2(2s+3c) = 11*2\\4s+6c = 22$

Now

$4s+6c-(3s+6c) = 22-19.50\\4s+6c-3s-6c = 2.5\\s = 2.5$

Putting s=2.5 in equation 1

$2(2.5)+3c = 11\\5+3c = 11\\3c = 11-5\\3c = 6\\\frac{3c}{3} = \frac{6}{3}\\c = 2$

Hence,

The price of a sandwich is £2.5 and the price of a croissant is £2

ABCD is a rectangle. Trapezoid AEFB is congruent to trapezoid CFED. G is the midpoint of segment EF. Select all the ways we coul

iris [78.8K]

Answer: C, D and E

Step-by-step explanation: I'm a high school student and my teacher just went over this exact problem today. Here's somewhat how he explained it.

If you draw out trapezoid AEFB and turn it once clockwise or counterclockwise you would have only turned it 90 degrees but, turn it one more time (180) and you will see that it looks just like figure CFED. That's how I got the answers C and E. Ok, now for D its kinda the same thing Just because it say translate doesn't mean the shape would change. Even if you slide the shape and turn it two times in either direction you will still get figure CFED. Your Welcome

How do the graphs of the functions f(x) = (Three-halves)x and g(x) = (Two-thirds)x compare?

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The answer to this question can be defined as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\bold{f(x)= (\frac{3}{2})^x}\\\\\bold{g(x)= (\frac{2}{3})^x}\\$

Following are the graph attachment to this question:

The second function, that is $g(x)= (\frac{2}{3})^x$ is not even a function.

Remember that g(x) function is the inverted f(x) function. And when you see this pattern, a reflection on the Y-axis expects you.

Reflection in the axis.

In x-axis:

Increase the function performance by -1 to represent an exponential curve around the x-axis.

In y-axis:

Increase the input of the function by -1 to represent the exponential function around the y-axis.

Given the function f(X)= |3x-7|, find the values of X that satisfy the equation f(X) = 4

Kay [80]

Answer:

x = 1 or x = $\frac{11}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression inside the absolute value function can be positive or negative

That is 3x - 7 = ± 4

There are 2 equations to solve

(1)

3x - 7 = 4 ( add 7 to both sides )

3x = 11 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = $\frac{11}{3}$

(2)

3x - 7 = - 4 ( add 7 to both sides )

3x = 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 1

Akira Chang's uncle dies without a will, leaving an estate of $945,000. His heirs consist of a wife and two adult children. His

OLEGan [10]

Let w represent the amount the wife receives.
.. w +2*(2/3*w) = 945,000
.. 7/3w = 945,000
.. w = (3/7)*945,000 = 405,000

The wife will receive $405,000.
