The reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units
Find the diagram of the question attached. The given triangle ABC and BDE are similar triangles.
Using the similarity theorem of a triangle, this is expressed as:
AC = DE
Using the pythagoras theorem to get the length of AC:
AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2
5^2 + AC^2 + 4^2
AC^2 = 25 - 16
AC^2 = 9
AC= 3
Since AC = DE, hence the reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units

Answer:
24.4 miles per gallon or 24 2/5 miles per gallon.
-6.7 and -8.8 and 11.(-2)
Answer: Use order of operations (PEMDAS). Answer is 45.72.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, solve inside parenthesis:
(5.25*1 1/5 - 4.5*4/5)
Convert 1 1/5 into decimal. It will be easier. 1 1/5 is the same as 1.2
Do multiplication and division first.
5.25*1.2 = 6.3
Now it looks like: (6.3 - 4.5*4/5)
Convert 4/5 to a decimal: 4/5 = 0.8
(6.3 - 4.5*0.8)
Multiply 4.5*0.8 = 3.7
Subtract (6.3 - 3.7) = 2.6
Now the full equation is: 19.6*2 1/5 + (2.6)
2 1/5 as a decimal: 2.2
Multiply 19.6*2.2 = 43.12
Now the equation is: 43.12 + 2.6
Add 43.12 + 2.6 = 45.72
