What’s the rest of the qurstion?
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 2 similar triangles : ABE and DCE
that means they have the same angles, and the scaling factor from one triangle to the other is the same for every side.
and that means that
DE/AE = EC/BE (= DC/AB)
we know that
AE = AD + DE
BE = BC + EC
a.
so, we have actually
DE/(AD+DE) = EC/(BC+EC)
DE/(10+DE) = 8/(2+8) = 8/10 = 4/5
DE = 4(10+DE)/5
5DE = 4(10+DE) = 40 + 4DE
DE = 40 cm
b.
AD/DE = 3/5
BC/EC must be 3/5 too.
15/EC = 3/5
15 = 3EC/5
75 = 3EC
EC = 25 cm
Answer:
x=2 and y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step: Solvey=2x+3for y:
y=2x+3
Step: Substitute2x+3foryiny=3x+1:
y=3x+1
2x+3=3x+1
2x+3+−3x=3x+1+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)
−x+3=1
−x+3+−3=1+−3(Add -3 to both sides)
−x=−2
−x
−1
=
−2
−1
(Divide both sides by -1)
x=2
Step: Substitute2forxiny=2x+3:
y=2x+3
y=(2)(2)+3
y=7(Simplify both sides of the equation)
The answer is 4000 because the value of 4 is 40000 so times that by 1/10 gives you 4000
