20/5 = x /4   x =  80/5 = 16

x - 10 / 39 = 5/15 = 1/3
3x - 30 =  39
3x = 69
x = 23

(2x + 10 ) * 4 = 10 *(x + 3)

8x + 40 = 10x + 30
2x = 10 
x = 4

AE = 2(5) + 10  =  20

Answer:

Part 1) x=16\ units

Part 2) x=23\ units

Part 3) AE=20\ units

Part 4) x= 6.25\ units

Part 5) x=26.67\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

\frac{12}{3}=\frac{x}{4}\\\\3x=12*4\\ \\x=48/3\\ \\x=16\ units

Part 2) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

\frac{36}{12}=\frac{39}{(x-10)}\\\\3(x-10)=39\\ \\x=(39/3)+10\\ \\x=23\ units

Part 3) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

\frac{AB}{CD}=\frac{AE}{ED}

substitute the values

\frac{10}{4}=\frac{2x+10}{x+3}

2.5(x+3)=2x+10

2.5x+7.5=2x+10

2.5x-2x=10-7.5

0.5x=2.5

x=5\ units

AE=2x+10=2*5+10=20\ units

Part 4) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

\frac{4}{5}=\frac{5}{x}\\ \\4x=5*5\\ \\ x=25/4\\ \\ x= 6.25\ units

Part 5) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

\frac{30}{x}=\frac{45}{40}\\ \\45x=30*40\\ \\x=1,200/45\\ \\ x=26.67\ in

Tell the maximum number of zeros that the polynomial function may have. then use​ descartes' rule of signs to determine how many
Marta_Voda [28]
F(x) = -4x^7 +x^3 -x^2 +5

a) It is a degree 7 polynomial, so will have 7 zeros (some may be repeated).

b) has 3 sign changes, so 1 or 3 positive real zeros. If odd powers have their signs reversed, the signs are changed to +--+, so there are 2 sign changes. There will be 0 or 2 negative real zeros.

____
There is actually 1 positive real zero and 0 negative real zeros. This means there are 3 conjugate pairs of complex zeros.

4 ∈ {4, 14, 17} is this true or false
Natalija [7]
The symbol "<span>∈" means "belongs to".
This means that a certain element belongs to or is found in the set.

The set given contains three numbers which are 4, 14 and 17.
As you can see, 4 is found in this set, therefore, 4 belongs to this set.

Based on this, the given statement is true.</span>

Answer:

John and Pam are paid $8.5 for each hour worked. John's share of the money is $29.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the hourly salary. John worked for 3.5 hrs, and Pam for two. We can represent this using the equation:

3.5x + 2x = 46.75, where the coefficients equals the amount of hours.

Let's solve for x!

5.5x=46.75

x = 46.75/5.5 = 17/2 = 8.5

John and Pam are paid 8.5 dollars per each hour worked.

To figure out John's share of the money, we will multiply the wage by the hours he worked.

8.5 x 3.5 = 29.75
