Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, you need to use the Thales theorem.

You can actually apply this theorem and choose two sides of the figure to do it.

In this case, I will choose segment LM and MN and look for a ratio with DE and EF like this:

LM/MN = DE/EF

This theorem states that you can stablish a ratio between two segments assuming that you have at least two paralels lines, like DL || EM || FN

Therefore, it's time to replace the values of those segments and solve for X:

LM/MN = DE/EF

14/16 = 6x -9 / 4x + 4

7/8 = 6x - 9 / 4x + 4

7(4x+4) = 8(6x-9)

28x + 28 = 48x - 72

72 + 28 = 48x - 28x

100 = 20x

x = 100/20

x = 5

So also cross that out. the only thing u have left is 4 and 8. Then u can cross out A because the group of students has to be the same number of rows. Which is 8 x 8 aka B. The answer is B

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The projected population for 2015 is around 83,600 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

If between 2005 and 2010, the population grew by 32,800 people, and the model of this problem is linear. Then that means in another 5 years, another 32,800 people would populate the area. Hopefully this makes sense!
