Mathematics
1 answer:
lina2011 [118]3 years ago
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}} \\

If the sum of the even integers between 1 and k, inclusive, is equal to 2k, what is the value of k?
lorasvet [3.4K]
You can make a start by putting together an expression for the sum of the even integers between 1 and k inclusive.

Let S be the sum of the even integers between 1 and k inclusive.

Then:
<span><span>S=2+4+6+⋯+(k−2)+k</span></span>

As k is even, you can say r = 2k and so:

<span><span>S=2(1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r)</span></span>

<span>Now the sum of the first </span><span>r</span><span> numbers is well-known, it's the </span><span>r</span>th triangle number and we have:

<span><span>1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r=<span><span>r(r+1)/</span>2</span></span></span>
<span>Now we can keep it simple and say </span><span><span>2k=4r </span></span><span>and so:</span>

<span><span>S=2(1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r)=4r=2<span><span>r(r+1)</span>2</span>=r(r+1)</span></span>

<span>So you can build a quadratic in </span><span>r</span><span> and so get </span><span>k.</span>

The cost of a t-shirt was $30. Now the t-shirt costs $37.50. What is the percent of change? Do the work on your own paper and wr
Art [367]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Initial cost of a t-shirt = $30

Final cost of a t-shirt = $37.50

We need to find percent of change. The percentage change in any value is given by :

\%=\dfrac{\text{final value-initial value}}{\text{initial value}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{37.5-30}{30}\times 100\\\\=25\%

Hence, the percentage error is 25%.
