The answer is 1.28 because you add 2.37+35 then subtract that from $5
(trying to isolate/get x by itself in the equation)
5(x + 6) = 50 Distributive property [distribute 5 into (x + 6)]
5x + 30 = 50 Subtraction [subtract 30 on both sides of the equation]
5x = 20 Division [divide 5 on both sides]
x = 4
Subtraction then division, the 2nd option
Answer: AD/CD = 2/5
Explanation:
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC on the basis of AA(Angle angle)
Recall, if 2 triangles are similar, it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. Thus,
AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC
From the information given,
AB/DE = 7/5
Thus,
AC/DC = 7/5
AD + CD = AC
(AD + CD)/DC = 7/5
AD/DC + CD/DC = 7/5
AD/DC + 1 = 7/5
AD/DC = 7/5 - 1
AD/DC = 2/5
AD/CD = 2/5
The answer to this question is 5589
No it isnt. hope this helps
