This is triangle proportional theorem and I need help

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle AED, segments GB and FC are parallel to base ED. Points G and F are on segment AE in that order. Lengths AG=2, GF=5, FE=3, GB=6, and CD=7 are given. You want the lengths of AB, BC, FC, and ED.

Segments of transversals crossed by parallel lines are proportional:

  AG : GF : FE = AB : BC : CD

  2 : 5 : 3 = AB : BC : 7

Multiplying the first ratios by 2 1/3 will give the second ratios:

  2 : 5 : 3 = 4 2/3 : 11 2/3 : 7

This lets us conclude ...

  AB = 4 2/3

  BC = 11 2/3

Corresponding segments of similar triangles are proportional:

  AG : GB = FA : FC = AE : ED

  2 : 6 = (5+2) : FC = (5+2+3) : ED

We notice the second number in the first ratio is 3 times the first number. That means these ratios are ...

  2 : 6 = 7 : 21 = 10 : 30

This lets us conclude ...

  FC = 21

  ED = 30

The lengths of the missing sides are calculated to be

The parallel lines in the figure created similarity between the dimensions, this makes the ratio of the dimensions equal

The given dimensions that is used to find the missing sides

Solving for AB

AB / CD = AG / FE

AB / 7 = 2 / 3

cross multiplying

3 * AB = 7 * 2

AB = 14/3 = 4.667

Using AB, GF is calculated

AB / BC = AG / GF

14/3 / BC = 2 / 5

cross multiplying

BC = (5 * 14/3) / 2

BC = 35/3 = 11.667

Solving for FC

GB / FC = AG / A'F

6 / FC = 2 / (2 + 5)

cross multiplying

2 * FC = 6 * 7

FC = 42/2 = 21

Solving for ED

GB / ED = AG / AE

6 / ED = 2 / (2 + 5 + 3)

cross multiplying

2 * ED = 6 * 10

ED = 60/2 = 30

The probability that the mean contents of the 784 sample cans are less than 9.995 ounces is 0.081. The correct option is B

Probability is the ability to happen. The subject of this area of mathematics is the occurrence of random events. From 0 to 1 is used to express the value. Probability has been introduced in mathematics to determine how likely events are to occur.

Given mean = 10

standard deviation = 0.10

sample  = 784

The probability that the 784 sample cans' average contents will be less than 9.995 ounces

P ( X < 9.995 ) =  x - μ/ σ / √n

 = 9.995-10/0.10/√784

 = -0.005 / 0.10 /28

 = -1.400

P(Z < -1.400)  = 0.081

Therefore the probability that the mean contents of the 784 sample cans are less than 9.995 ounces is 0.081

The number of polio vaccinations is 32  and measles vaccination is 28

Let p represent the number of polio vaccines and let m represent the number of measles vaccines.

We know that each polio vaccine consists of 4 doses, and each measles vaccine consists of 2 doses.

Dr. Potter gave a total of 60 vaccinations last year. Therefore, the sum of the number of polio vaccines and measles vaccines must total 60. Therefore:

p+m=60

Together, they consisted of 184 doses.

Since each polio vaccine has 4 doses, the amount of doses for p polio vaccines is 4p.

And since each measles vaccine has 2 doses, the amount of doses for m measles vaccines is 2m.

So:

4p+2m=184

We now have a system of equations:

p+m=60

4p+2m=184

We can solve using elimination. Let’s multiply the first equation by -2. So:

-2p-2m=-120

Now, we can add this to the second equation. Hence:

(-2p+4p)+(-2m+2m)=(-120+184)

2p=64

p=32

Therefore, Dr. Potter gave out 32 polio vaccinations

p+m=60

By the first equation:

p+m=60

Substitute 32 for p to get

32+m=60

m=60-32

m=28

So, 28 measles vaccinations were given out.

The Area of Rectangle would be Decreased by 16% of the original Area. Now the Area of Rectangle is 84%.

Let the Length of rectangle be ‘x’

And width of rectangle be ‘y’

Area of Rectangle = Length X Width

Original Area of rectangle = x X y = xy square units

As the length is increased by 40% then, the new length would be 1+40% i.e 1.4 and,

The width is decreased by 40% then, the new width would be 1-40% i.e  0.6

New Length = 1.4x

New Width = 0.6y

Now , New Area of Rectangle = 1.4x X 0.6y

                    = 0.84xy square units

The effect is that the New Area of the rectangle is 84% of the original area. There is a decrease of 16% in the area.

The expression represents the time she spent driving is       [tex]\frac{228.95}{x}[/tex]

The expression represent the time she spent driving can be calculated as follows:

We know that

Time = [tex]\frac{distance}{ speed}[/tex]

Let x be her speed on the first half of the trip.

Then for first half , the tiime she takes is

T1= [tex]\frac{150}{x}[/tex]

while in a second half the time taken by her is

T2= [tex]\frac{150}{1.9x}[/tex]

T2= [tex]\frac{78.95}{x}[/tex]

the total time she spent on driving is

T1 + T2 =    [tex]\frac{150}{x}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{78.95}{x}[/tex] =    [tex]\frac{228.95}{x}[/tex]

The gal in the first mixes is nine-halves, the constant of proportionality is one-twelfth and the white paint required in 7 gals is seven twelfths

Given:

White paint = 3/8 gal

Blue paint =  2 7/8 gal

Red paint = 5/4 gal

Gallons of  first mixes = White paint + Blue paint + Red paint

Gallons of first mixes = 3/8 + 2 7/8 + 5/4 = 9/2 gal

The constant of proportionality of white paint to gallons of mixed paint:

constant of proportionality = white paint volume/ mixed paint volume

constant of proportionality = (3/8) / (9/2) = 1/12  

The constant of proportionality of white paint to gallons of mixed paint gives the fraction of white color in the total volume

In order to make 7 gallons of the same color paint, the quantity of white paint he will need is:

White paint in 7 gallons = 1/12 x 7 =  7/12

Therefore, blank one is nine-halves, blank two is  one-twelfth and blank three is seven twelfths

Nathan can drive 83 miles without exceeding the budget.

Let us assume the number of miles Nathan can go in $75 budget be x. Now forming the equation based on the mentioned information -

The total budget = daily rental charge + number of miles × cost per mile

Keep the values in formula -

75 = 29.50 + 0.55x

Rewriting the equation according to variable x

0.55x = 75 - 29.50

Performing subtraction on Right Hand Side of the equation

0.55x = 45.5

x = 45.5 ÷ 0.55

the slope is the inclination of a line, or of the tangent (also a line) on a point of a bent curve.

it is expressed as ratio (y coordinate change / x coordinate change) when going from one point on the line or curve to another point on the line.

it tells us how many units y changes when x changes a certain number of units (like 1).

it is positive, if the line goes up (when going from left to right). the larger the value, the steeper the line goes up.

it is negative, if the line is going down (again, going from left to right). the lower the value, the steeper the line goes down.

a horizontal line has a slope of 0/x = 0.

a vertical line has a slope of y/0, which is undefined, or sometimes expressed as infinite.

The numeric value of the expression 8n at n = 6 is different of 56, hence n = 6 is not a solution to the expression 8n = 56.

A number a is a solution to an expression if the numeric value of the expression at input a generates an identity with the expression.

In this problem, the expression is given as follows:

8n = 56.

We want to verify if the number six is a solution to the presented expression.

The numeric value of the expression at n = 6 is found replacing the lone instance of n by 6, hence it is obtained as follows:

8n = 8 x 6 = 48.

(the product of 8 and 6 is 48).

Then the equality would be of:

48 = 56.

Which is a contradiction, hence n = 6 is not a solution to the expression 8n = 56.
