Find x and the measures of the indicated parts

Mathematics
1 answer:
frutty [35]3 years ago
8 0
Given:

Two similar triangles AEB and ACD.

To solve for x, we can use ratio and proportion following the rule for similar triangles. 

So,

AE / AD = AB / AC

Substitute values,

AE = AD - DE
AE = 6 - 5
AE = 1

1 / 6 = 2 / (2 + x + 4)

Solve for x 

x = 6

then,

BC = x +4 = 6 + 4 = 10
AC = 2 + x + 4 = 12

Therefore, the measurements of the triangles are:

AE = 1 
BC = 10
AC = 12

A company manufactures two types of electric hedge trimmers, one of which is cordless. The cord-type trimmer requires 2 hours to
Delvig [45]

There are commonly used four inequalities:

Less than = <

Greater than = >

Less than and equal = ≤

Greater than and equal = ≥

The inequalities that describe the constraints on the number of each type of hedge trimmer produced are:

x + y ≤ 200

2x + 10y ≤ 1000

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

It shows a relationship between two numbers or two expressions.

There are commonly used four inequalities:

Less than = <

Greater than = >

Less than and equal = ≤

Greater than and equal = ≥

We have,

Total number of hours = 1000

Total number of trimmers = 200

Let x represent the number of cord-type models,

Let y represent the number of cordless models.

Now,

x + y ≤ 200

2x + 10y ≤ 1000

Thus,

The inequalities that describe the constraints on the number of each type of hedge trimmer produced are:

x + y ≤ 200

2x + 10y ≤ 1000

What is the scale factor in the dilation ?<br><br>1/6<br><br>1/3<br><br>3<br><br>6​
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1) Find two corresponding lengths between the image and the pre-image</u>

Pre-image (bottom side) = 3 units

Image (bottom side) = 9 units

We can use any corresponding lengths for this step.

<u>2) Divide the length of the side from the image by the length of the side from the pre-image</u>

9 units ÷ 3 units

= 3

Therefore, the scale factor of the dilation is 3.

I hope this helps!

Help please - first question
Afina-wow [57]
The answer should be x=60. ABD are an equilateral triangle all the angles must add up to 180. 60*3=180. Also if you have a protractor you can measure the angle C, the 60 degrees part and measure it against A, D and B. Hope this helps.

What is the selling price of a set of scrubs if the markup is 80% of the cost, and the cost is $37.99?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Discount = Original Price x Discount %/100

Discount = 37.99 × 80/100

Discount = 37.99 x 0.8

You save = $30.39

Final Price = Original Price - Discount

Final Price = 37.99 - 30.392

Final Price = $7.60
