Remark
When you have two parallel lines cutting the sides of a triangle and one of them is the base of the triangle, then the 2 sides cut form a proportion. The safest way to handle this is to set up the proportion so that you are talking about sides of similar triangles..

Givens
BD || AE
CD = 16
CE = 16 + 4
CB = 12
CA = 12 + x

Set Up the Proportion
CD/CE = CB / CA

Substitute and Solve
16/20 = 12/(12 + x)                Cross multiply
16*(12 + x) = 20 * 12             Combine the right
16*(12 + x) = 240                   Remove the brackets.
192 + 16x = 240                     Subtract 192 from both sides.
16x = 240 - 192
16x = 48                                 Divide by 16
x = 48 / 16
x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

tens  ones. tenths hundredths thousandths

1        7       .   2          5                    3

We are rounding to the nearest tenth

We are rounding the 2 so we look at the 5.  If it is 5 or above we round up.

Since it is, we will round the 2 to a 3

The length and width of a rectangle are measured as 55 cm and 49 cm, respectively, with an error in measurement of at most 0.1 c
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The maximum error in the calculated area of the rectangle is 10.4 \:cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle with length L and width W is A= L\cdot W so the differential of <em>A</em> is

dA=\frac{\partial A}{\partial L} \Delta L+\frac{\partial A}{\partial W} \Delta W

\frac{\partial A}{\partial L} = W\\\frac{\partial A}{\partial W}=L so

dA=W\Delta L+L \Delta W

We know that each error is at most 0.1 cm, we have |\Delta L|\leq 0.1, |\Delta W|\leq 0.1. To find the maximum error in the calculated area of the rectangle we take \Delta L = 0.1, \Delta W = 0.1 and L=55, W=49. This gives

dA=49\cdot 0.1+55 \cdot 0.1

dA=10.4

Thus the maximum error in the calculated area of the rectangle is 10.4 \:cm^2
