If a+5=b, then what is the value of (b−a)^4?

Over the course of the school year, you keep track of how much snow falls on a given day and whether it was a snow day. your data indicates that of twenty-one days with less than three inches of snow, five were snow days, while of the eight days with more than three inches of snow, six were snow days. if all you know about a day is that it is snowing, what is the probability that it will be a snow day?

Given: ad¯¯¯¯¯ is an altitude. prove: ab2+ac2=cb2 right triangle a b c with right angle a. point d lies on side b c and segment a d is drawn. angle a d c is a right angle. drag and drop a reason into each box to correctly complete the two-column proof. statement reason ad¯¯¯¯¯ is an altitude, and ∠bac is a right angle. given ∠adb and ∠adc are right angles. definition of altitude ∠bac≅∠bda ? ∠bac≅∠adc ? ∠b≅∠b ? ∠c≅∠c reflexive property of congruence △abc∼△dba ? △abc∼△dac aa similarity postulate abbd=cbab ? ab2=(cb)(bd) cross multiply and simplify. acdc=cbac polygon similarity postulate ac2=(cb)(dc) cross multiply and simplify. ab2+ac2=ab2+(cb)(dc) addition property of equality ab2+ac2=(cb)(bd)+(cb)(dc) substitution property of equality ab2+ac2=(cb)(bd+dc) ? bd+dc=cb segment addition postulate ab2+ac2=cb2 substitution property of equality

If (x + 8) is a factor of f(x), which of the following must be true? both x = –8 and x = 8 are roots of f(x). neither x = –8 nor x = 8 is a root of f(x). f(–8) = 0 f(8) = 0
