Answer:

500 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to make a proportion:

\frac{part}{whole} = \frac{percent}{100}

77 lb is part of the whole weight ( which we don't know) so 77 will go on top

The problem tells us that 15.4% of the total weight is pecans so 15.4 will go over 100 (since % are out of 100)

\frac{77}{x} = \frac{15.4}{100}

Then you cross multiply giving you: 7700 = 15.4x

then you divide 15.4 to both sides to isolate x which will give you 500

AB is parallel to ED.
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

BE = 22.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ CAB and Δ CDE are similar , then ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{CB}{CE} = \frac{AB}{DE} , substitute values

\frac{6.4}{CE} = \frac{8}{20} ( cross- multiply )

8 CE = 128 ( divide both sides by 8 )

CE = 16 cm

Then

BE = BC + CE = 6.4 + 16 = 22.4 cm
