\text{Let the height of the living room ceiling is h feet.}\\
\\
\text{Given that the bedroom ceiling is 10 feet high and this height is }\frac{2}{3}\\
\text{as high as the living room ceiling.}\\
\\
\text{So the equation that represents this situation can be set as:}\\
\\
\frac{2}{3}\ \text{of the height of the living room = Height of ceiling of bedroom}

\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3}(h)=10\\
\\
\Rightarrow \frac{2h}{3}=10\\
\\
\text{now to solve it, first we multiply both sides by 3. so we get}\\
\\
2h=30\\
\\
\text{now divide both sides by 2 to get}\\
\\
h=15

Hence the height of the living room ceiling is: 15 feet

How do you compare and contrast decimals, fractions, and percents
Alisiya [41]
You would have to make them all one form that is the same, for example if you wanted to find out if 80%, 0.75, 1/2 are the same you would have to change them into the same form. If you wanted to make them all decimals it would be 0.08, 0.75, 0.5, if you wanted to make them all percents it would be 80%, 75%, 50%, you wanted them all of be a fraction it would be 4/5, 3/4, and 1/2. I hope explained this well and this helped :)

Angle ABD and angle BDE are supplementary. Find the measures of both angles.
marishachu [46]
By definition of supplementary angles,
∠ABD + ∠BDE = 180
5x + 17x - 18 = 180
22x = 198
x = 9

∠ABD = 5(9) = 45°
∠BDE = 180 - 45 = 135°
