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.

The accurate statements are 0.75 (x,y) = (0.75x, 0.75y), LM is parallel to L'M', and "the vertices of the image are nearer to the origin relative to the pre-image".

Explanation:

It is stated that the triangle ABC underwent dilation as per the rule DO,0.75 (x,y)

DO, 0.75(x,y) signifies the dilation rule, where both x and y values are scaled by 0.75, indicating that the dilation, centered around the origin, has a scale factor of 0.75. The representation for this dilation would be,

Consequently, the first statement holds true.

Since both x and y coordinates are scaled down by 0.75, the sides of the image are parallel, but shorter, with a scale of 0.75 compared to the pre-image’s sides.

Thus, the second statement "LM is parallel to L'M'" is also accurate, while the third and fifth statements are incorrect.

The scale factor of 0.75, being less than 1, suggests that the vertices of the image are closer to the origin compared to those of the pre-image.

Hence, the fourth statement "The vertices of the image are nearer to the origin compared to the pre-image" is indeed correct.

Answer:

1/6 ton of fish is provided during the night feeding.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fish consumed in the morning is tons, and the amount of fish served in the afternoon is greater than in the morning. This means

Let’s represent the quantity of fish given at night as , and if the total fish fed throughout the day equals , we have

By summing the numerators on the left side, we derive:

and subtracting from both sides allows us to isolate

Since , we derive

The common denominator for the fractions is 6; hence, we write the equation in the form

and simplifying the numerators results in:

which indicates the amount of tons fed during the night feeding.

We need to specify the interval for numbers ranging from -5 to 4.

Moreover, we must exclude the values -1 and 4 from this range.

First, let’s note some crucial guidelines regarding interval notation.

It’s essential to identify which values are included and which ones are not in the specified range.

An open interval (or) indicates excluded numbers, while a closed interval [or] shows included numbers.

In this scenario, we notice three key numbers: -5, -1, and 4.

It is explicit that -1 and 4 are excluded, though -5 is not indicated as excluded, hence it remains included.

-1 lies between -5 and 4 on the number line.

Consequently, we can represent the interval notation from -5 to -1. (Note: -5 is included and -1 is not).

Thus, we write a closed interval " [ " on the left side of -5 and an open interval " ( " on the right side of -1. This gives us,

[-5, -1 ).

Next, we represent the interval from -1 to 4.

Since both endpoints are excluded, we will use open intervals ( ) on both sides of -1 and 4.

This results in the interval being

(-1,4).

We combine the two interval notations using the union symbol. So, the final interval representation is

[-5, -1 ) ∪ (-1,4).
