First, draw your diagram. Make sure all of the specifications are there.

AD : DB = 2:3

Area of ΔABC = 30 in²

This means that the sides that make up AB (AD and DB) are 2:3. The total length of side AB = 5. The altitude of ΔABC is CD, and that is 0.5 (5 × x), and if you solve that, x = 12. So CD = 12.

Since point M is the midpoint, it divides CD into 2 equal lengths, DM and CM, both of which equal 6 (12 ÷ 2 = 6)

Now:

ΔDMB = 0.5 (6 × 3) = 0.5 (18) = 9 in²

ΔDMA = 0.5 (6 × 2) = 0.5 (12) = 6 in²

ΔACD = 5/2 = 30/x, 5x = 60, x = 12 in² (Main Problem 2: If 2 triangles have congruent altitudes, then the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio of the sides to which those altitudes are drawn.)

ΔAMC = 12 in² - 6 in² = 6 in² (Area of ΔACD - Area of ΔDMA = Area of ΔAMC)

ΔBDC = 5/3 = 30/x, 5x = 90, x = 18 in² (Main Problem 2: If 2 triangles have congruent altitudes, then the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio of the sides to which those altitudes are drawn.)

ΔBMC = 18 in² - 9 in² = 9 in² (Area of ΔBDC - Area of ΔDMA = Area of ΔBMC)

So the answers are:

Area of ΔACD = 12 in²

Area of ΔAMC = 6 in²

Area of ΔDMB = 9 in²

Area of ΔCMB= 9 in²

Hope this helped!

Solve x in 2|x+ 6| + 9 = 19
xenn [34]
Answer: x=-1

Step by step:

2|x+6|+9=19

Subtract 9 from both sides.

2|x+6|=10

Divide both sides by 2

|x+6|=5

Use the definition of absolute value.

x+6=5

Subtract 6 on both sides

x=-1

Hope this helped! :)

5 out of 20 students said ice cream was their favorite snack if they were a hundred six graders how many would chose ice cream P
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

<u>25 students</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

20 times 5 equals 100

5 times 5 equals 25

To get to 100 students you would times it by 5 and because we times'd the 20 times 5 we need to do the same to the 5 which would result in 25 students. Hope this helped! xx

How do you solve 2i and 2ii​
natta225 [31]

Answer:

15 and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the n th term formula

T = 2n + 5

To find the 5 th and 8 th terms substitute n = 5 and n = 8 into the formula

T_{5} = (2 × 5) + 5 = 10 + 5 = 15

T_{8} = (2 × 8) + 5 = 16 + 5 = 21
