Answer:
CE= 9cm, DE= 5cm, CD= 10.2956cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let E be the point of the other triangle.
Using Pythagoras' Theorem,
CD= square root symbol (CE^2 + DE^2)
= square root symbol (9^2+5^2)
= 10.2956cm (6 sf)
A good way of doing this problem would be to use cross multiplication of ratios
<u />
Then cross multiply
(10 girls)(270 students)=(X girls)(18 students)
2700=18x
150=x
-160=22+8(3p-4)
Use distributive property
-160=22+24p-32
-160=24p-10
Add 10 for both side
-160+10=24p-10+10
-150=24p
Divided 24 for both side
-150/24=24p/24
p=-6.25
Check:
-160=22+8(3p+4)
-160=22+8[3(-6.25)-4]
-160=22+8(-18.75-4)
-160=22+8(-22.75)
-160=22-182
-160=-160. As a result, x=-6.25. Hope it help!
Set ? as x, and cross-multiply.
so x^2= 36
x = 6 or x = -6
