Answer:

" Vertical angles are equal " ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Refer to the attached illustration

- Three lines intersect at point D.

- We have to identify the missing justification in step 3.

∵ Line FA intersects line EC at point D.

- When two lines cross, the angles created are referred to as

 vertical angles.

- By the vertical angles theorem, vertical angles are equal.

Thus, ∠ADC and ∠FDE are vertical angles.

Since vertical angles are equal

∴ ∠EDF ≅ ∠ADC

Thus, m∠EDF ≅ m∠ADC

Given that m∠EDF = 120°.

∵ m∠ADC is the sum of m∠ADB and m∠BDC.

Therefore, m∠ADB + m∠BDC = 120°.

∵ m∠ADB = (3x)° ⇒ given.

∵ m∠BDC = (2x)° ⇒ given.

Thus, 3x + 2x = 120 ⇒ combine like terms.

Thus, 5x = 120 ⇒ divide both sides by 5.

Thus, x = 24.

Column (1)                                                     Column (2)

m∠EDF = 120°                                               given

m∠ADB = 3 x                                                 given

m∠BDC = 2 x                                                 given

∠EDF and ∠ADC are vertical angles           definition of vertical angles

∠EDF is equal to ∠ADC                           vertical angles are equal

                                                                        equal  

m∠ADC = m∠ADB + m∠BDC                        angle addition principle.

m∠EDF = m∠ADC                                          definition of equality.

m∠EDF = m∠ADB + m∠BDC                         substitution.

120° = 3 x + 2 x                                               substitution.

120 = 5 x                                                         addition.

x = 24                                                           division.

∴ The missing justification is " vertical angles are equal "

- From the reasoning above, ∠ADC and ∠FDE are vertical angles and therefore they are equal according to the vertical angle theorem.

How much profit was generated by the sales of gold label and black label combined?
lawyer [4008]
The profit produced by combining sales of gold label and black label equals the total of their individual profits. From the table \begin{array}{ccc}&\text{Number of bottles sold}&\text{Average profit (per bottle)}\\\text{Gold label}&1,000&\$2.75\end{array} you find the gold label's profit 1,000\cdot \$2.75=\$2,750. and similarly from another table \begin{array}{ccc}&\text{Number of bottles sold}&\text{Average profit (per bottle)}\\\text{Black label}&2,000&\$1.50\end{array} find the black label's profit 2,000\cdot \$1.50=\$3,000.. Adding these yields \$2,750+\$3,000=\$5,750.. Thus, option 5 is the correct choice.

Laura is the fund-raising manager for a local charity. She is ordering caps for an upcoming charity walk. The company that makes
Zina [3914]

Let x represent the number of caps

cost per cap = $6

cost for x caps = 6x

shipping charge = $25

overall budget = $1000

We can set up the following inequality:

Because the total amount cannot exceed 1000, we have

25 + 6x ≤ 1000

6x ≤ 975

x ≤ 162.5

rounding,

x ≤ 163

This means she can purchase a maximum of 163 caps.

Two of the steps in the derivation of the quadratic formula are shown below. Step 6: StartFraction b squared minus 4 a c Over 4
babunello [3635]

Explanation:

Step-by-step clarification:

Referring to step 6

(b² — 4ac) / 4a² = (x + b/2a)²

The mistake in the question is that it should be (x + b/2a)²

According to step 7

±√(b² —4ac) /2a = x + b/2a

The error in the question is that it should be divided by 2a, not 1a.

1. The transition from step 6 to step 7 involves taking the square roots of both sides

(b² — 4ac) / 4a² = (x + b/2a)²

Taking the square of both sides

√(b²—4ac) / √4a² = √(x + b/2a)²

√(b²—4ac) / 2a = x + b/2a

This forms step 7 correctly.

Next, subtracting b/2a from both sides

√(b²—4ac) / 2a - b/2a= x + b/2a -b/2a

√(b²—4ac) / 2a — b/2a = x

(√(b²—4ac)  — b)/2a = x

x = [—b ± √(b²—4ac)] / 2a

This gives the desired formula.

The discriminant is D = b²—4ac.

The perimeter of the school crossing sign is 102 inches what is the length of each side
Leona [4166]
The total perimeter of the school crossing sign measures 102 inches.
To find the length of each side, knowing the number of sides is necessary.
If it has 5 sides, dividing 102 by 5 results in 20.4 inches per side.
If it has 4 sides, dividing 102 by 4 gives a side length of 25.5 inches.
So, the side length depends on how many sides the sign has.
