-4d + 2(3+d)= -14
distribute the 2(3+d)
-4d + 6+ 2d= -14
Combine the like terms
-4d + 2d + 6= -14
-2d + 6 = -14
subtract 6 to -14
-2d = -20
divide by -2
d= -20/-2
d= 10
Check your answer
-4(10) + 2(3+ 10) = -14
-40 + 6 + 20
-40 + 26= -14
Answer:
0.579 is the probability that a household has a VCR given they have a TV.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Probability of all households have a TV = 88% = 0.88

Probability of all households have a TV and VCR = 51% = 0.51

We have to find the probability that a household has a VCR given they have a TV.
The conditional probability is given by:

0.579 is the probability that a household has a VCR given they have a TV.
m∠1 = 30° (by Vertical angle theorem)
m∠A = 80° (by Triangle sum theorem)
m∠D = 80° (by Triangle sum theorem)
The value of x is 7.5 and y is 9.
Solution:
∠ACB and ∠DCE are vertically opposite angles.
Vertical angle theorem:
<em>If two lines are intersecting, then vertically opposite angles are congruent.</em>
⇒ m∠DCE = m∠ACB
⇒ m∠1 = 30° (by Vertical angle theorem)
In triangle ACD,
Triangle sum property:
<em>Sum of the interior angles of the triangle = 180°</em>
⇒ m∠A + m∠C + m∠B = 180°
⇒ m∠A + 30° + 70° = 180°
⇒ m∠A + 100° = 180°
⇒ m∠A = 100° – 180°
⇒ m∠A = 80° (by Triangle sum theorem)
Similarly, m∠D = 80° (by Triangle sum theorem)
In ΔACD and ΔDCE,
All the angles are congruent, so ΔACD and ΔDCE are similar triangles.
<em>In similar triangle corresponding sides are in the same ratio.</em>

Do cross multiplication.
90 = 12x
7.5 = x
Now, to find y:

Do cross multiplication.
9y = 72
Divide by 9, we get
y = 8
Hence the value of x is 7.5 and y is 9.
