Answer: 48 units

Given,
ABCD is a parallelogram
The diagonals bisect at E
Line segment AE = t + 2
Line segment CE = 3t – 14
Line segment DE = 2t + 8

Line segment DB is unknown

Since ABCD is a Parallelogram, Midpoint AC = Midpoint DB
The midpoint is E
Therefore
AE = CE                … (Equation I)
DE = BE                … (Equation II)

DB = DE + BE
Since DE = BE (Equation II),
DB = 2DE = 2BE

Given, DE = 2t + 8
DB = 2(2t + 8)
DB = 4t + 16        … (Equation III)

To solve for the value of ‘t’
AE = CE                … (Equation I)
Line segment AE = t + 2
Line segment CE = 3t – 14
Therefore, t + 2 = 3t – 14


Subtract t from both sides of the equation
3t – 14 – t = t + 2 – t
2t – 14 = 2

Add 14 to both sides of the equation
2t – 14 + 14 = 2 + 14
2t = 16
t = 8

Substitute 8 for t in Equation III to solve for the length of line segment DB
DB = 4t + 16        … (Equation III)
DB = (4*8) + 16
DB = 32 + 16
DB = 48

Therefore, the length of line segment DB is 48 units

Answer:

300 cubic meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a Rectangular pyramid:

V = (lwh)/3

Given:

l = 10

w = 10

h = 9

Work:

V = (lwh)/3

V = (10 * 10 * 9)/3

V = 900/3

V = 300

You cross two true-breeding parents (one with purple flowers and one with white flowers). All of the F1 progeny (offspring) have
kogti [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is 375 purple flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

If all the F1 generation from true-breeding parents are purple than the genotype would be heterozygous i.e., Pp and Pp. Here P indicates the dominant allele which produces purple flower and p indicates the recessive allele of white flower.

So if we will cross the F 1 generation than the genotype would be PP, Pp, Pp, pp. That means 3 out of 4 offspring would be purple because three genotypes out of four have dominant purple allele(P).

So if out of 4 flower 3 is purple than according to calculation out of 500 flower 375 offspring would be purple(3/4*500= 375). Therefore the correct answer is 375 purple flowers should be produced.

∠ABD and ∠BDE are supplementary. Find the measures of both angles.
Gnom [1K]

Supplementary means that the angles have to add up to 180, so you have your equation.

180=5x+17x-18

198=22x

x=9

Then to find the measures of the angles, you plug x back in.

m∠ABD=5(9)=45 degrees

m∠BDE=17(9)-18=153-18=135 degrees
