I need the answer to a and b

Mathematics
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a. x = 7

b. x = 36/5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

The ratio of of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal.

<u>a). To find the value of x</u>

From the figure 1 we get two similar triangles, ΔABC and ADE

We can write,

AB/AD = AC/AE

3/6 = x/(x + 7)

3(x + 7) = 6 * x

3x + 21 = 6x

6x - 3x = 21

3x = 21

x = 21/3 = 7

<u>b). To find the value of x</u>

From the figure b we get

ΔABC ~  ΔEDF

AB/DE = BC/DF

4/5 = x/9

x = (4 * 9)/5 = 36/5

Answer: 1.2/5 Marching band members play the snare drum.

What is the answer when you round 522 254 to the nearest 10​
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

522250

How to round to the nearest tenth:

Whenever you want to round a number to a particular digit, look only at the digit immediately to its right. For example, if you want to round to the nearest tenth, look to the right of the tenths place: This would be the hundredths place digit. Then, if it is 5 or higher, you get to add one to the tenths digit. If it is 4 or lower, the tenths digit remains the same.

For example, 3.58 can be rounded to 3.6 because the hundredths place digit, 8 is greater than or equal to 5.

3.32 would be rounded to 3.3, because the hundredths place digit, 2, is less than 5.
