This only happens if the triangle is isosceles.

Suppose you have triangle ABC, with AB=AC. In this case, the altitude AH bisects both the base BC and the angle BAC, so triangle ABH and ACH are congruent becase they have AH in common, BH=CH and AB=BC because the triangle is isosceles.

Sarah spends of her monthly take-home pay on rent, food, and clothing. If she earns $1,830 in take-home pay each month, how much

Sarah spendings

We have that Sarah spends 2/3 of $1,830 in rent food and clothing

In order to find the money she spends, we just have to divide $1,830 in 3 and multiply the result by 2:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1830}{3}=610 \\ 610\cdot2=1220 \end{gathered}$ <h2>Answer - D. $1,220</h2>

Explain the following terms: positive slope, negative slope, x-intercept, y-intercept << Read Less

garik1379 [7]

Hello there!

A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.

A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.

The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.

The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.

I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
