We are given AB ∥ DE. Because the lines are parallel and segment CB crosses both lines, we can consider segment CB a transversal of the parallel lines. Angles CED and CBA are corresponding angles of transversal CB and are therefore congruent, so ∠CED ≅ ∠CBA. We can state ∠C ≅ ∠C using the reflexive property. Therefore, △ACB ~ △DCE by the

Which of the choices shown could be used to prove that aacp=abcp ?

Suppose a gym membership has an initial enrollment fee of $75 and then a fee of $29 a month. which equation models the cost, c, of the gym membership for m months?

Exercise: counting committees 0.0/2.0 puntos (calificable) we start with a pool of n people. a chaired committee consists of k≥1 members, out of whom one member is designated as the chairperson. the expression k(nk) can be interpreted as the number of possible chaired committees with k members. this is because we have (nk) choices for the k members, and once the members are chosen, there are then k choices for the chairperson. thus, c=∑k=1nk(nk) is the total number of possible chaired committees of any size. find the value of c (as a function of n ) by thinking about a different way of forming a chaired committee: first choose the chairperson, then choose the other members of the committee. the answer is of the form c=(α+nβ)2γn+δ. what are the values of α , β , γ , and δ ?
