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

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If you treat (x+5) as a single value and (x-2) as the values of x and +2, you can distribute (x+5) to x and +2: ( (x-5)*x + (x-5)*2 ). Then you can treat x-5 as the values of x and -5 and distribute those to the numbers next to them: (×^2 - 5x) + (2x - 10). This results in x^2 -3x - 10.

As instructor grades exams, 30%; term paper, 20%; and final exam, 50%. A student had grades of 75,80, and 85, respectively, for
Leni [432]
Okay, so 75 counts for 30% (exams), 80 counts for 20% (term paper), and 85 counts for 50% (final exam)

So you would multiply 30% by 75, 20% by 80, and 50% by 85. That would be 22.5, 16, and 42.5. Add these numbers up, and put them over the total percentage, 100%. So you would have 81/100. The student's final average is 81%.
