A submarine started at sea level and descended at a rate of –32 feet per minute for a given period of time, x. Then, the submarine slowed its descent to a rate of –12 feet per minute for another interval that lasted the same amount of time. If the current position of the submarine is, at most, 480 feet below sea level, describe the solution set for the number of minutes the submarine was travelling at each of these different speeds.

0.6

39mph

step-by-step explanation:

a: inscribed angles

step-by-step explanation:

i reviewed this question with a peer and teacher, seems to be correct, me later

< xcy ≅ < xby

step-by-step explanation:

in δcax and δbax,

so, δcax ≅ δbax (side-angle-side or sas)

since δcax ≅ δbax, we can conclude < acx ≅ < abx

in δacy and δaby,

so, δacy ≅ δaby (side-angle-side or sas)

since δacy ≅ δaby, we can conclude < acy ≅ < aby

now,

< acy ≅ < aby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < abx + < xby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < acx + < xby   (since < acx ≅ < abx already proved above)

subtracting < acx from both sides, we get

< acx + < xcy -< acx ≅ < acx + < xby -< acx

cancelling out < acx and -< acx from both sides, we get

< xcy ≅ < xby (proved)
