Answer:
Proved
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: EC || AC, DB || AC, ∠A = ∠F
Prove: ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA
Solution
See diagram attached to the solution to better understand the following workings.
Redrawing ΔMDF or rotating to be facing the same direction.
EC is parallel to AC
DB parallel to AC
Using similar triangle theorem:
If ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA
Ratio of Corresponding sides would be equal
(adjacent of ΔMDF)/(adjacent of ΔNCA) = (Opposite of ΔMDF)/(opposite of ΔNCA) = (hypotenuse of ΔMDF)/(hypotenuse of ΔNCA)
DF/ CA = MD/NC = FM/AN
∠A = ∠F
∠M = ∠N
∠D = ∠C
Since the ratio of Corresponding sides and angle are equal, ΔMDF is similar to ΔNCA.
ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA
Answer:
1). 
2). 
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question we have to write the fractions in the factored form.
Rational expressions are
and
.
1).
Factored form of the denominator (x² - x - 12) = x² - 4x + 3x - 12
= x(x - 4) + 3(x - 4)
= (x + 3)(x - 4)
Therefore. 
2). 
Factored form of the denominator (x² - 16) = (x - 4)(x + 4)
[Since (a²- b²) = (a - b)(a + b)]
Therefore,

Answer:
you should accept the $1,000 bill
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the information:
- $500 for rolling 1 or 2
- $400 for rolling 3
- lose $300 for rolling 4,5,6
P (rolling 1 or 2) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3
P (rolling a 3) = 1/6
P (rolling 4 or 5 or 6) = 3/6 = 1/2
Hence, the expected value for 1 time is:
E = (1/3)*500 + (1/6)*400 - (1/2)*300
E = $166 + $66 - $150
E = $82
Expected value is linear so if you roll the die 10 times, expected value is: 10*82 = $820
The expected value is $82, meaning you should accept the $1,000 bill
