Answer:
The length of AE is 20 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two segments AD and BC intersect at point E to form two triangles ABE and DCE. Side AB is parallel to side DC. A E is labeled 2x+10. ED is labeled x+3. AB is 10 units long and DC is 4 units long.
we have to find the length of AE
AB||CD ⇒ ∠EAB=∠EDC and ∠EBA=∠ECD
In ΔABE and ΔDCE
∠EAB=∠EDC (∵Alternate angles)
∠EBA=∠ECD (∵Alternate angles)
By AA similarity, ΔABE ≈ ΔDCE
therefore, 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Hence, AE=2x+10=2(5)+10=20 units
The length of AE is 20 units.

HAV A GREAT DAY hope this helps
I won't answer them all for you (don't want to cheat - need to learn something).
But for the first one given:
<span>-2x-9y=-25
-4x-9y=-23
you set up either x or y (which ever one you want to eliminate) so that one of them cancels.
So this one is easy - you just have to multiply an entire row by negative (doesn't matter which one) - so that the y's will be + and -
Since they're both 9 and they're subracting NOW - you can eliminate the y value. Now add/subtract the x's. So it'd be -2 or 2 depending on how you eliminated y. Then add the number outside of the = sign. Now just solve for x. After that plug in whatever you got for x into both of the rows. Then find the y value.
Hopefully this wasn't confusing -- reply if it is and I will try to simplify. I can give you contact if you need help with the rest
Good luck!</span>
Answer:
$15 < $4n + $5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Billy needs to make more than $15 between his allowance and the lawns that he mows. This means our inequality should include $15<. Also, since Billy will make $4 per lawn, that means we need to multiply $4 by the number of lawns he needs to mow, n: $4n. So far we have the following: $15<$4n. Next, we know that he makes $5 each week, on top of what he makes mowing each law. This means we need to add the $5 to the $4n. When we put all of these pieces together, we will get the following inequality: $15<$4n+$5
Dividing two negatives equals a positive:
(-63) / (-9) = 7
