|DF| = |DE| + |EF|

|DF| = 9x -36

|DE| = 47

|EF| = 3x+10

Substitute:

9x - 39 = 47 + 3x + 10

9x - 39 = 3x + 57 |+39

9x = 3x + 96 |-3x

6x = 96 |:6

x = 16

Put the value of x to the equation |EF| = 3x + 10

|EF| = (3)(16) + 10 = 48 + 10 = 58

Answer: |EF| = 58

Answer: The required length of EF is 58 units.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that DF = 9x - 39, DE = 47 units and EF = 3x + 10.

We are to find the length of EF.

We have

$DE+EF=DF\\\\\Rightarrow 47+(3x+10)=9x-39\\\\\Rightarrow 3x+57=9x-39\\\\\Rightarrow 9x-3x=57+39\\\\\Rightarrow 6x=96\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{96}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow x=16.$

Therefore, the length of EF is given by

$EF=3\imes16+10=48+10=58.$

Thus, the required length of EF is 58 units.

$\cos 30=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

$\sin 30 = \frac{1}{2}$

$\tan 30=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

Now we insert that into the equation:

$\dfrac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{1+\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

$\dfrac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\\$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{3}}\\$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

Solve by substitution (show steps) -3x-4y=10 -6x+y=-16

natali 33 [55]

1) -3x-4y=10 ==> - 3x = 10+4y ===> 3x= -10-4y==> x=(-10-4y)/3
Now replace x by its value in 2)

2) -6x+y=-16 ==> - 6[( - 10- 4y)/3] + y = -16 ==> -2[(-10-4y] +y =- 16
+20+8y+y =- 16==> 9y = - 16 - 20 ==> 9y = -36 & y = - 4.

Now replace y by (- 4) in any of the 2 equations & you will find x = 2
