Answer: AD/CD = 2/5
Explanation:
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC on the basis of AA(Angle angle)
Recall, if 2 triangles are similar, it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. Thus,
AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC
From the information given,
AB/DE = 7/5
Thus,
AC/DC = 7/5
AD + CD = AC
(AD + CD)/DC = 7/5
AD/DC + CD/DC = 7/5
AD/DC + 1 = 7/5
AD/DC = 7/5 - 1
AD/DC = 2/5
AD/CD = 2/5
Answer:
y = 12x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
X = (y + 3) / 12
Multiply each side by 12 to clear the fraction
12 x = (y+3)/12 *12
12x = y+3
Subtract 3 from each side
12x -3 = y+3-3
12x-3 =y
Refrection across the y-axis changes the function to y = |-x|.
Vertical stretch by a factor of 1.5 changes the graph to y = 1.5|-x|
Shifting the graph by 4 units downward changes the graph to y = 1.5|-x| - 4
Required equation is y = 1.5|-x| - 4
To find the answer, you will need to divide the total number of balloons by the number of balloons in a pack.
275 ÷ 2 = 137.5
Because you can't buy half of a package, Celia should probably buy 138 packages.
