<u><em>x=5/8 is the correct answer.</em></u><em> </em>First you had to simplify from both sides of equation, and it gave us, $x+\frac{-1}{4}=\frac{3}{8}$ . Then you add 1/4 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, $x+\frac{-1}{4}+ \frac{1}{4}= \frac{3}{8}+ \frac{1}{4}$ . And it gave us the answer is<u><em> </em></u><u><em>x=5/8 is the final answer. </em></u>Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie

In the figure, Δ ABC Δ XYZ. What is the perimeter of ΔABC? Show your work.

slava [35]

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

∆ABC~ ∆XYZ

AB= 11 that is half of XY = 22

therefore XZ/2 = AC (base) = 32/2 = 16

and YZ /2 = BC(hypotenuse) = 44/2 = 22

(a= 11, b= 16, c= 22)

perimeter of a triangle

P = a+b+c

P= 11+16+22= 49

Given right triangle ABCABC with altitude \overline{BD} BD drawn to hypotenuse ACAC. If BC=10BC=10 and DC=5,DC=5, what is the le

Helen [10]

Answer: $\overline{AC}=$ 12.5

Step-by-step explanation: The triangle ABC and its altitude $\overline{BD}$ is represented in the figure below.

<u>Altitude</u> is a segment of line that link a vertex and the opposite side, forming a right angle.

So, because of $\overline{BD}$ , now we have two similar triangles, which means that ratios of corresponding sides are equal:

$\frac{\overline{BD}}{\overline{BC}} =\frac{\overline{AD}}{\overline{BD}}$

$\overline{BD}^{2}=\overline{BC}.\overline{AD}$ (1)

This is always true for a right triangle and a altitude drawn to the hypotenuse.

Triangle BDC is also right triangle. So, we can use Pythagorean theorem to determine the missing side.

$\overline{BC}^{2}=\overline{CD}^{2}+\overline{BD}^{2}$

$\overline{BD}^{2}=\overline{BC}^{2}-\overline{CD}^{2}$ (2)

Substituting (2) into (1):

$\overline{BC}^{2}-\overline{CD}^{2}=\overline{BC}.\overline{AD}$

We want to find f, so:

$\overline{AD}=\frac{\overline{BC}^{2}-\overline{CD}^{2}}{\overline{BC}}$

$f=\frac{10^{2}-5^{2}}{10}$

f = 7.5

The length of $\overline{AC}$ is

$\overline{AC}=f+5$

$\overline{AC}=7.5+5$

$\overline{AC}=12.5$

The length of the hypotenuse of triangle ABC is 12.5 units.

alex bakes $24$ apple, blueberry, and cherry pies. The ratio of apple to blueberry to cherry pies is $1:4:3$. How many cherry pi

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Alex baked 9 cherry pies

Step-by-step explanation:

apple : blueberry : cherry = 1:4:3

apple + blueberry + cherry = 24

1 part: 24 / ( 1+4+3) = 24 / 8 = 3

** Cherry has 3 parts: 3 x 3 = 9

check: apple = 3 x 1 = 3

blueberry: 3 x 4 = 12

12 + 3 + 9 = 24
