Segment AD is 4, and segment AE is 3. This is because AB is 8, and half of 8 is 4, and then AC is 6, and half of 6 is 3.

Answer:

Segment AD is 4, and segment AE is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In triangle ABC,

AB = 8 unit,

AC = 6 unit,

We have to prove :

[tex]DE=\frac{BC}{2}{/tex]

By the Midpoint Theorem, the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

Thus, for proving the required statement we need to prove D and E are midpoints of AB and AC respectively,

That is, AD = DB and AE = EC

∵ AB = 8 ⇒ AD + DB = 8 ⇒ AD + AD = 8 ⇒ 2AD = 8 ⇒ AD = 4

Similarly,

2AE = 6 ⇒ AE = 3

Hence, LAST option is correct.

Mary has 40% fewer marbles than Jolie. If they combine all their marbles in a single bag, what percent of the marbles in the bag
dedylja [7]
The easiest way to do this would be to imagine that Jolie has 100 marbles. If Mary has 40% fewer, that means she has 60 marbles. Then if they combine all their marbles into a single bag, they will have 160 marbles, of which 100 are Jolie's. So the % that is Jolie's is 100/160 = 0.625 = 62.5%.
