BC⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ is parallel to DE⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯. What is AC? Enter your answer in the box. 34 units A triangle with vertices labeled as A, D, and E. Side D E is the base and the top vertex is A. Sides A D and A E contain midpoints B and C, respectively. A line segment is drawn from point B to C. Side A B is labeled as 8. Side B D is labeled as 10. Side C E is labeled as 15.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

AC = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If BC is parallel to DE, then angles D and B are congruent and angles C and E are congruent as well. This means that triangles ABC and ADE are similar by the AAA (or AA) similarity theorem.

We know that similar triangles are in proportion. This means that [tex]\frac{AC}{AE} = \frac{AB}{AD}[/tex]

Now, we can plug the values given into that equation:

[tex]\frac{x}{x+15} = \frac{8}{18}[/tex]

Now, cross multiply:

18x = 8(x + 15)

Now, we can simplify this equation and solve for x, or AC.

18x = 8x + 120

Subtract 8x from both sides:

10x = 120

Divide both sides by 10:

x = 12

Hope this helps!

Two sides of a parallelogram measure 60 centimeters and 40 centimeters. If one angle of the parallelogram measures 1320, find the
length of each diagonal.
a.about 86.4 cm and 54.2 cm
c.about 91.7 cm and 54.2 cm
b. about 91.7 cm and 44.6 cm
d. about 86.4 cm and 44.6 cm​

Answers

Answer:

  b. about 91.7 cm and 44.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of the diagonals can be found using the Law of Cosines.

Consider the triangle(s) formed by a diagonal. The two given sides will form the other two sides of the triangle, and the corner angles of the parallelogram will be the measure of the angle between those sides (opposite the diagonal).

For diagonal "d" and sides "a" and "b" and corner angle D, we have ...

  d² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(D)

The measure of angle D will either be the given 132°, or the supplement of that, 48°. We can use the fact that the cosines of an angle and its supplement are opposites. This means the diagonal measures will be ...

  d² = 60² +40² -2·60·40·cos(D) ≈ 5200 ±4800(0.66913)

  d² ≈ {1988.2, 8411.8}

  d ≈ {44.6, 91.7} . . . . centimeters

The diagonals are about 91.7 cm and 44.6 cm.

Could someone explain why (-4)² is equal to 16 but -4² is equal to -16​

Answers

Answer:

It's all about the brackets.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we do (-4)^2, the brackets make it -4 x -4 and the two negatives make a positive of 16.

If we do -4^2, that means that the 4 is squared before putting the minus sign there so you have 4x4 = 16 then put the minus to get -16.

Hope this helps!

treviglaslibrary

Answer:

4^2= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because when you square something your are multiplying that number by itself. So in this case you must multiply 4 x 4 which is sixteen. Another example of this is 3^2 which is 9. In this case you must multiply 3 x 3 which is nine.

What is the factored from of y2+6y-16

Answers

Answer:

(y + 8)(y - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y² + 6y - 16

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 16) which sum to give the coefficient of the y- term (+ 6)

The factors are + 8 and - 2, since

8 × - 2 = - 16 and 8 - 2 = 6, thus

y² + 6y - 16 = (y + 8)(y - 2)

(y-2)(y+8) Is the answer because if you think about what two number add up to 6 and multiply to -16 it’s -2 and 8

A fruit vendor purchased 540 fruits in all for $150. He sold 15 dozens at 2 bananas a dollar, another 15 dozens at 3 bananas a
dollar and the remaining at 5 bananas a dollar. Find his loss or gain percentage. ( with explanation )

Answers

Answer:

First find how much bananas are in a dozen

15 x 12 = 180

Divide the amount by the amount of bananas per dollar to find profit

180 / 2 = $90

Do the same thing as before

15 x 12 = 180

180 / 3 = $60

Find how many bananas are left

180 + 180 = 360

540 - 360 = 180

Do the same as before

180 / 5 = $36

Add up all the money. 90 + 60 + 36 = 186

Subtract the cost

185 - 150 = 36

To find percentage increase

36 / 150 = 0.24 or 24% profit

Step-by-step explanation:

x2=6x−8

x2−6x+8=0

We now have to find integers that find product is 8 and whose sum is −6

= -4 -2 we find this is set to 4 2 as x−4=0

Add 4 to both sides of the equation. x=4

Set the next factor equal to 0

x−2=0 Add 2 to both sides of the equation.x=2

Confirms and proves x = 4,  x = 2

We solve for y

2y+10=(4)2

2y+10=16

2y=16−10

2y = 6

y = 3

We rewrite and solve for y again

(2)^2=2y+10

2y+10=(2)*2

2y+10=4  

2y = 4(-10)

2y = -6

y= -3

-2( x ) - 7(y) =250 X

Answers

Answer:

x = 41

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Systems of equations is,

-2x - 7y = -250 ------(1)

4x - y = 140 ------(2)

Equation (1) multiplied by 2 then added to equation (2)

  -4x -14y = -500

(+)   4x - y = 140  

          -15y = -360

             y = [tex]\frac{360}{15}[/tex]

            y = 24

by putting y = 24 in equation (2),

4x - 24 = 140

4x = 140 + 24

x = [tex]\frac{164}{4}[/tex]

x = 41

For x = 41 and y = 24 both the equations are true.

Equation (1),   -2(41) - 7(24) = -250  [True]

Equation (2),   4(41) - (24) = 140  [True]

Answer:

6. x = 3 7. x = 120 8. x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

the first question is x(-4) + 3 = -9

find the value of x :

-4x + 3 = -9

we can subtract 3 on both sides since we have a value of 3 on the left, which will cancel the value out.

-4x = -12

-4(3) = -12

therefore the answer to problem 6 is x=3

and for 7 :

x / 6 - 9 = 11

we can add 9 on both sides which will cancel it out;

x/6 = 20

120/6 = 20

therefore the answer to the question 7 is 120.

For problem 8 it says :

-3x -5 = 10

we can add 5 on both sides to get:

-3x = 15

-3(-5) = 15

therefore the answer to problem 8 is -5

Rate of change in hi account per week = [tex]\frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}[/tex]

                                                                 = [tex]\frac{260-140}{12-6}[/tex]

                                                                 = [tex]\frac{120}{6}[/tex]
