I think the correct solutions are: UV = 14 ft and m∠TUV = 45°; ST = 20 ft, UV = 14 ft, and m∠UST = 98°. In other words, Options A and D.

The initial and fourth pieces of information can serve as supplemental details to demonstrate that ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU using SAS. To explain, in ΔSTU and ΔVTU, we have SU=14ft, VT=20 ft, m∠SUT=45°, and m∠TUV=98°. The additional information provided is: 1. UV = 14 ft and m∠TUV = 45°, thus SU=UV = 14 ft [given], and m∠TUV = m∠SUT = 45° [given]. The length TU is the same in both triangles due to the Reflexive property, resulting in ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU via the SAS congruence postulate. 2. TU = 26 ft, which does not provide sufficient information to establish triangle congruence. 3. m∠STU = 37° and m∠VTU = 37°, meaning we also need additional data to confirm their congruency. 4. ST = 20 ft, UV = 14 ft, and m∠UST = 98° leads to ST = 20 ft=TV [given], and the reflexive property shows TU=TU, thus establishing ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU under the SAS postulate. 5. m∠UST = 98° alongside m∠TUV = 45° also supports ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU through the AAS congruence theorem. Therefore, the first and fourth pieces of information can indeed serve to demonstrate that ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU using SAS.

The yearly income for an individual with an associate’s degree in 2001 was $53,166 and in 2003 it was $56,970. What is the ratio

Zina [12379]

Response:

8861: 9495

Detailed explanation:

The income ratio for the years 2001 to 2003:

53,166: 56,970

To simplify, divide both sides by 6:

8,861: 9,495

This can't be simplified further, so that is the final result!

8861: 9495

I hope this helps! Have a great day:)

Two airplanes are flying to the same airport. Their positions are shown in the graph. Write a system of linear equations that re

zzz [12365]

To formulate the system, it's necessary to consider the slope of each line along with at least one point from each line. The two lines will connect each plane's location to their destination airport. It's important to note that the airport's coordinates represent the intersection of these two lines, corresponding to the solution of the system. First, the slope of the line from airplane one to the airport is: m = 2; this can be observed by plotting the two points. From airplane 1's location, the rise is 8 units while the run is 4 units to reach the airport, making the slope 8 divided by 4 = 2. We then insert the slope and point (2,4) into the point-slope form: y - 4 = 2(x - 4), which can be rearranged to standard form 2x - y = 0. For airplane two, the slope to the airport is obtained by observing the vertical decrease of 3 and a horizontal increase of 9 as we move from the airport to airplane 2. We then substitute the slope and the point (15,9) into the point-slope form: y - 9 = -1/3(x - 15), which can be rearranged to the standard form: x + 3y = 42. Consequently, the system of equations is: 2x - y = 0 and x + 3y = 42. Multiplying the first equation by 3 produces a system of: 6x - 3y = 0 and x + 3y = 42. Adding these equations results in the equation 7x = 42. Thus, x = 6, and by substituting this value back into 2x - y = 0, we determine y = 12. Thus, we demonstrate that the airport's coordinates do indeed comprise the solution to our system.
