Answer:
Check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to make a prove;
Mathematically , since D is the midpoint of CE
Then;
CE = CD + DE
Also, since D splits the line segment into two equal parts as the midpoint, then CD must be equal to DE
I.e CD = DE
Hence, we can express CE as follows;
CE = DE + DE
CE = 2 DE
Divide both sides by 2
CE/2 = DE
Hence; DE = 1/2 CE
<span>57 boxes of detergent on the shelves in 2 minutes
</span><span>After 5 minutes, he had put 117 boxes on the shelves
117 - 57 = 60 (60 </span>boxes of detergent for 3 minutes)
60/3 = 20 (20 boxes of detergent per minute)
so
20 x 5 = 100 boxes of detergent
117 - 100 = 17 boxes
answer
17 boxes of detergent <span>were on the shelves when he started</span>
To solve this problem you must apply a theorem called: Intersecting secant theorem. The proccedure is shown below:
1) For the figure shown on the left:
(5)(x+5)=(6)(4+6)
5x+25=60
5x=60-25
x=35/5
x=7
2) For the figure shown on the right:
(3)(3+5)=(4)(x+4)
24=4x+16
24-16=4x
8=4x
8/4=x
x=2
Answer:
the correct answer is C....I hope
