We are given the total earnings of the school, $2800.

The earnings of each grade level are as follows:

2nd grade = $200
5th grade = $200
kindergarten = 2 * $200 = $400
4th grade = 2 * $200 = $400
1st grade = 3rd grade = x 

The amount which is left for us to determine is the earnings of the first and third grade. This can be determined by equating all earnings to the total school earnings and let 1st and 3rd grade be the variable x:

$2800 = $200 + $200 + $400 + $400 + x + x
$2800 = $1200 + 2x
$1600 = 2x
x = $800

Therefore, 1st grade and 3rd grade earned $800 each. <span />

Since BC is parallel to DE, triangles ABC and ADE are similar. What are the lengths of the unknown sides?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: find BC

Given Triangles ABC and ADE are similar,

\frac{AB}{AD} = \frac{BC}{DE}

BC = \frac{AB}{AD} x DE

= \frac{8}{8 + 4} x 9

= 6 cm

Step 2: use Pythagorean theorem to find AC and / or AE

Consider triangle ABC,

by Pythagorean theorem,

AB² + BC² = AC²

AC² = 6² + 8² = 100

AC = √100 = 10 (answer... we can see that C is the only one with AC=10.

Step 3: Verify.. even though we know that it is C because AC  = 10,  you can verify that the ansewer is correct by finding CE and confirming that CE=5

By using similar triangles ABC and ADE,

AC/AE = AB / AD

AE = AD/AB x AC = 12/8 x 10 = 15

CE = AE - AC = 15 - 10 = 5 (answer confirmed)
