Answer:

AD=15

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, it can be seen that GF is parallel to DE, therefore, the two triangles that are AGF and ADE will be similar, thus by using the basic proportionality theorem, we have

\frac{FA}{AE}=\frac{GA}{AD}

Substituting the given values, we have

⇒\frac{16}{16+4}=\frac{12}{AD}

⇒\frac{16}{20}=\frac{12}{AD}

⇒AD=\frac{12{\times}20}{16}

⇒AD=15

Thus, the value of the segment AD will be 15 units.

AD is 16 because FE equals 4 and FE is equivalent to GD. so then add 4 to AG which is 12, and 12+4= 16

Mr. Rubio is buying a burger meal for each member of his family. He buys each family member a burger for $2.75, a drink for $1.3
Gnoma [55]

Mr. Rubio will spend $29.10 in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one burger = $2.75

Cost of one drink = $1.30

Cost of an order of fries = $0.80

Cost of 1 meal = 2.75+1.30+0.80 = $4.85

Members of family = 6

Cost of 6 meals = Cost of one meal * 6

Cost of 6 meals = 4.85*6 = $29.10

Mr. Rubio will spend $29.10 in all.

Alexandra purchases two donuts and three cookies at the donut shop and it's charged $3.30. Brianna purchases five donuts and two
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Given:

Cost of two donuts and three cookies = $3.30

Cost of five donuts and two cookies = $4.95

To find:

The cost of each donut.

Solution:

Let x be the cost of each donut and y be the cost of each cookie.

Cost of two donuts and three cookies = $3.30

2x+3y=3.30          ...(i)

Cost of five donuts and two cookies = $4.95

5x+2y=4.95          ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 2.

4x+6y=6.60          ...(iii)

Multiply equation (ii) by 3.

15x+6y=14.85      ...(iv)

Subtracting (iii) from (iv), we get

15x+6y-4x-6y=14.85-6.60

11x=8.25

Divide both sides by 11.

x=\dfrac{8.25}{11}

x=0.75

Therefore, the cost of each donut is $0.75.
