Answer:

<h2>24 cm</h2>

Solution,

from the figure,height of ∆ DBC=36-h

Now,in two similar triangles, ratio of corresponding sides are equal to ratio of their heights.

Since, ∆DBC~∆EBA

\frac{36 - h}{h}  =  \frac{dc}{ae}  \\ or \:  \frac{36 - h}{h}  =  \frac{10}{20}  \\ or \: 20(36 - h) = 10 \times h(cross \: multiplication) \\ or \: 720 - 20h = 10h \\ or \:  - 20h - 10h =  - 720 \\ or \:  - 30h =  - 720 \\ or \: h =  \frac{ - 720}{ - 30}  \\ h = 24 \: cm

Height of ABE =24 cm

hope this helps...

(6m^3 -16m^2 + 15m - 40) / (2m^2 + 5)
Helen [10]
        6m3 - 16m2 + 15m - 40<span> Simplify ————————————————————— 2m2 + 5 </span>Checking for a perfect cube :

<span> 4.1 </span>  <span> 6m3 - 16m2 + 15m - 40</span>  is not a perfect cube 

Trying to factor by pulling out :

<span> 4.2 </span>     Factoring: <span> 6m3 - 16m2 + 15m - 40</span> 

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:  15m - 40 
Group 2: <span> -16m2 + 6m3</span> 

Pull out from each group separately :

Group 1:   (3m - 8) • (5)
Group 2: <span>  (3m - 8) • (2m2)</span>
               -------------------
Add up the two groups :
              <span> (3m - 8)  • </span><span> (2m2 + 5)</span> 
<span>Which is the desired factorization</span>

<span>3m-8 is the answer</span>

Slope of 1,-7 and -3-4​
3241004551 [841]

\large \mathfrak{Solution : }

Slope of the given line is :

  • \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

where ,

  • x_2 = 1

  • x_1 =  - 3

  • y_2 =  - 7

  • y_1 =   - 4

let's solve :

  • \dfrac{ - 7 - ( - 4)}{1 - ( - 3)}

  • \dfrac{ - 3}{4}

Slope = -3 / 4
