Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

The arrows on lines AB and CD indicate that these 2 shapes are similar and these 2 lines are corresponding so :

Linear scale factor :

12 ÷ 10 = 1.2 or 6/5

Let's use the fraction form

Using the linear scale factor we can make an equation to solve for x :

2x+4 = 6/5(x+8)

Expand the brackets :

2x+4 = 6/5x + 9.6

Subtract 4 from both sides :

2x = 6/5x + 5.6

Subtract 6/5x from both sides :

4/5x = 5.6

Divide both sides by 4/5 :

x = 7

Now substitute this value into the expression for the length of AE :

AE = 2(7) + 4

AE = 14 + 4

AE = 18

Hope this helped and have a good day

Answer:

116 units

Step-by-step explanation:

AE + ED = 180 because they make a straight angle and a straight angle is 180 degrees or half of a circle 360/2.

AE = 2x + 4 and ED = x +8 added together they equal 180

2x + 4 + x + 8 = 180  Combine the like terms

3x + 12 = 180  Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation

3x = 168  Divide both sides by 3

x = 56

Now that we know that x is 56 we can plug that in for AE to find its length

2x + 4

2(56) + 4

112 + 4

116

The question is this: Rationalize the denominator and simplify.
Neko [114]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  \dfrac{20+5\sqrt{3}}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply numerator and denominator by the "conjugate" of the denominator.

  \dfrac{5}{4-\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{5(4+\sqrt{3})}{(4-\sqrt{3})(4+\sqrt{3})}=\dfrac{20+5\sqrt{3}}{4^2-(\sqrt{3})^2}=\boxed{\dfrac{20+5\sqrt{3}}{13}}

__

This is done in different scenarios in order to take advantage of the factoring of the difference of squares. Square root terms and imaginary terms in the denominator can be eliminated in this way.

  a² - b² = (a -b)(a +b)

In the 1800s, wagon trains traveled west along the oregon trail. A wagon train traveled from missouri to wyoming in 1 2/3 months
strojnjashka [21]

Answer: 2 4/15 months

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a wagon train traveled from Missouri to Wyoming in 1 2/3 months and from Wyoming to Utah in 3/5 month.

The number of months that it will take the wagon train to travel from Missouri to Utah will be:

= 1 2/3 + 3/5

The common lowest multiple is 15

= 1 10/15 + 9/15

= 1 19/15

= 1 + 1 4/15

= 2 4/15 months

It will take they train 2 4/15 months to travel from Missouri to Utah.
