3 0

Answer:

a. x = 9

b. x = 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

a. By Basic proportionality theorem:

AB/BD = AC/CE

4/4 = x/9

1 = x/9

9 = x

x = 9

b.

In \: \triangle ABC \: \& \: \triangle EDF\\\angle B \cong \angle D....(given) \\\angle C \cong \angle F.....(given) \\\therefore \triangle ABC \: \sim \: \triangle EDF.. (AA\: POSTULATE) \\\therefore \frac{AB}{ED} = \frac{BC}{DF} ...(csst) \\\therefore \frac{2}{5} = \frac{x}{9}\\\therefore x = \frac{2\times 9}{5} \\\therefore x = \frac{18}{5} \\\huge \red{\boxed {\therefore x = 3.6}} \\

10 2/6 - 7 5/6 i know its prob easy but i need help
miv72 [106K]

Answer: 2 1/3

Explanation:

10 2/6 - 7 5/6

You can make both a fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, and then adding the numerator to that number, and keeping the denominator the same. So, 10*6 = 60 and 60 + 2 = 62 and you keep the denominator as 6, which would make 62/6

7*6 = 42 and 42 + 5 = 47 so 7 5/6 becomes 47/6

10 2/6 is equivalent to 62/6

7 5/6 is equivalent to 47/6

This just makes it easier to look at.

Now you just work through the equation.

62/6 - 47/6 = 15/6

15/6 = 2 3/6 = 2 1/3

Estimate 19.164 - 9.53 by first rounding each number to the nearest tenth.
Lina20 [59]
19.164 can be rounded to 19.2. That is because 0.164 is closer to 0.2 than it is to 0.1

9.53 rounded the the nearest tenth is 9.5 because 0.53 is closer to 0.5 than it is to 0.6.

19.2 - 9.5 = 9.7

Your answer is 9.7
