Given that D is the mid point of CE ,


So D will bisect CE, it means the length of DE and CD is equal.


=> DE + CD = CE



As DE and CD are equal,



=> DE + DE = CE

=> 2 DE = CE



Putting values from the question,


=> 2( 7x - 1 ) = 10x + 18

=> 14x - 2 = 10x + 18

=> 14x - 10x = 18 + 2

=> 4x = 20

=> x = 20 / 4

=> x = 10 / 2

=> x = 5

.





Therefore, the value of x is 5

Complete question :

A pair of $36 jeans were on sale at Jim's Jeans for 1/3 off. The same pair of jeans were $42 at David's Denims. The jeans were on sale for 2/3 off.

A.) which store had the better buy

B.) how much will you pay at the store that has the better buy

Answer:

A.)David's denim has the better buy

B.) $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's Jean store :

Cost of Jean = $36

Discount = 1/3 off

Discounted cost = $36 - (1/3 * $36)

Discounted cost = $36 - $12 = $24

David's Denim:

Cost of Jean = $42

Discount = 2/3 off

Discounted cost = $42 - (2/3 * $42)

Discounted cost = $42 - $28 = $14

David's denim has the better buy with a discounted price lower than the discounted price at Jim's store.

Cost at store with the better buy is $14

Deffense [45]

Answer: Not safe

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle of elevation of the ramp be θ, then:

\begin{aligned}&\sin \theta=\frac{1.5}{10}=0.15 \\&\theta=\sin ^{-1}(0.15) \approx 8.63^{\circ}\end{aligned}

But the maximum angle for the ramp cannot exceed 7.1°. The calculated angle of elevation will make it difficult, if not impossible, for motorized wheelchairs to get up the ramp.

Therefore, the ramp at the local library is not safe for motorized wheelchairs
