1 answer:
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

68>6t+4 when ever the number is per something(the 6) you put the variable with it and 4 is the constant t>16
If that 40% is how many are occupied then- 100 are occupied 150 are vacant if that 40% is how many are vacant then- 100 are vacant and 150 are occupied
