Answer:

The lines DE and BC have the same slope, therefore the two lines, DE and BC, are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that DE is parallel to BC, we have;

The slope, m of the lines DE and BC are found from the following equation;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) = (b, c) and (a + b + c) for DE, we have;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{c - c}{a + b-b} = 0

Where we have (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) = (0, 0) and (2a, 0) for BC, we have;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{0 - 0}{2a-0} = 0

Therefore, because the lines DE and BC have the same slope, the two lines DE and BC are parallel.

Seven people can paint a bridge in 15 days.
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

a) 3 people will need 35 days to paint the bridge

b) p=105/t

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

We have 7 people each one is to work 15 days, so the bridge needs a total of 7(15) days of work

7(15)=105

Then we have 3 people each one is to work t days, altogether should do a total of 105 days of work

3(t)=105

Solve for t

t=35

b)

Substitute p for 3 in the second equation

p(t)=105

Solve for p

p=105/t
