Answer:CD = x = 4 units
Explanation:We are given that the two triangles are similar. This means that we can set the similarity proportionality as follows:

W e have:
BC = 20 - x
AC = 20
CD = x
CE = 5
Substitute in the above proportionality and solve for x as follows:

4x = 20 - x
5x = 20
x = 4
Based on he above:
CD = 4 units
BC = 20 - x = 20 - 4 = 16 units
Hope this helps :)
The length of the leg is 5
For this case we have the following expression:
-9x ^ -1y ^ -1 / -15x ^ 5 y ^ -3
For power properties we have:
-9x ^ (- 1-5) y ^ (- 1 - (- 3)) / - 15
Rewriting we have:
9x ^ (- 6) y ^ (- 1 + 3) / 15
3x ^ (- 6) y ^ (2) / 5
3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6
Answer:
3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6Note: answer is not between the options. Rewrite the expression again, or the options.
3\4 ! you simply convert 7.5% into a fraction. (move the decimal point to the right two times. This should give you 75. Remember to put 75 over 100.
EX: 75/100
Next you must find the greatest common fact of both numbers. In this case the number is 25.
25 goes into 75 3 times. So that is your numerator or the number on top.
25 goes into 100 4 times. This will be your denominator or the number on the bottom.
Your answer should be 3/4! Make sure to show your work! good luck!
For the first question, divide 32 by 40 and it should equal .8 miles. Then, for the second question, multiply .8 by 13 and it should equal 10.4 miles.
