Answer: AD/CD = 2/5

Explanation:

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC on the basis of AA(Angle angle)

Recall, if 2 triangles are similar, it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. Thus,

AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC

From the information given,

AB/DE = 7/5

Thus,

AC/DC = 7/5

AD + CD = AC

(AD + CD)/DC = 7/5

AD/DC + CD/DC = 7/5

AD/DC + 1 = 7/5

AD/DC = 7/5 - 1

AD/DC = 2/5

AD/CD = 2/5

<h2> ${7}^{3} (as \: a \: single \: power \: of \: 7)$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 

${7}^{4} \div 7$

Since,

${a}^{x} \div {a}^{y} = {a}^{x - y}$

Hence,

$= {7}^{4 - 3}$

$= {7}^{3} (ans)(as \: a \: single \: power \: of \: 7)$

What is the domain of f(x) = (x + 2)2 – 1?

larisa [96]

Simplify

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow f(x)=(x+2)^2-1$

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow f(x)=x^2+4x+2-1$

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow f(x)=x^2+4x+1$

The Domain is set of all real numbers

$\\ \tt\Rrightarrow Domain\in R$
