There are two methods to solve this problem. One of them is the typical method and the other one is the short-cut. I will explain the shortcut

Short-cut: 
This method is quick and easy, and works with ALL triangles, which is why I suggest you use this. You make proportions. Since the triangles are similar, we can use CPCTC. Thereafter,
\frac{AD}{CE}= \frac{DB}{EB}

Now, you just need to identify the terms, substitute, and solve for the unknown, which would be k. 

\frac{12}{3} = \frac{k+5}{k-7} \\ 12(k-7)=3(k+5) \\ 12k-84=3k+15 \\ 9k=84+15 \\ 9k=99 \\ k=11[/tex]

So we found k, but it is asking for BE. Therefore, plug in the value of k, which is 11, into the expression for BE, which is k-7.

BE=K-7
k=11
BE=11-7
BE=4

Your answer is 4.

Answer:

x = abc/  (a+b)

Step-by-step explanation:

x/a + x/b = c

Multiply by ab to get rid of the fractions

ab(x/a + x/b) = abc

bx + ax = abc

Factor out an x

x( b+a) = abc

Divide each side by (a+b)

x ( a+b)/ (a+b) = abc/  (a+b)

x = abc/  (a+b)

Help (this for a friend)<br> a 62.1<br> b 117.4<br> c 122.1<br> d 164.5
kramer

Answer:

c. 122.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

so l * w + \frac{\pi r^2}{2}

since 6 cm is the diameter

6/2 = 3

the radius (or r) is 3

so 18 * 6 + \frac{3.14 * 3*3}{y}

108 + \frac{3.14*9}{y}

108 + \frac{28.26}{2}

108 + 14.13 = 122.13

simplified: 122.1 cm

hope this helps:)

coach Park's car averages 33 miles per gallon of gasoline how many gallons of gas does he need for the trip? justify you answer
sladkih [1.3K]
Since we don't know the length of the trip, we can't find an exact answer. 

However, we can write an expression for it. First, we let, T, represent the total number of miles for the trip.

Now, just divide T by 33. So our expression is T/33.

If you know the total miles of the trip, just divide it by 33 and you will have the answer.
