The value of the length of BC is 45 units

<h3>How to determine the length BC?</h3>

The given parameters are:

BC = 15x

AD = 32x - 2

EF = 20.5x + 8

Where the parallel bases are AD and BC and the midsegment is EF

By the midsegment theorem, we have

2 * EF = AD + BC

Substitute the known values in the above equation

2 * (20.5x + 8) = 15x + 32x -2

Open the bracket

41x + 16 = 15x + 32x - 2

Evaluate the like terms

6x = 18

Divide both sides by 6

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 in BC = 15x

BC = 15 * 3

Evaluate

BC = 45

Hence, the value of the length of BC is 45 units

koban [17]

Answer:

7.22 x 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the decimal is always to the right of the ones place.

1. Move it one place to the left and multiply by 10 to compensate.

2. Move it two places to left and multiply by 10^2.

3. Move the decimal point three times and multiply 10^3 to compensate, and the pattern continues until you reach the very last digit, the 7.

4. Numbers after the 7 that are not zeros will be after the decimal point.

so, 7.22 x 10^5

If it was a 75% discount, then u r actually paying 25%

0.25x = 11
x = 11 / 0.25
x = 44 <=== the original price
