Mathematics

Answer:

AD = 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since DE is parallel to AC and intersects 2 sides of the triangle it divides those sides in proportion, that is

\frac{BD}{AD} = \frac{BE}{EC} , substitute values

\frac{3}{AD } = \frac{8}{12} ( cross- multiply )

8AD = 36 ( divide both sides by 8 )

AD = 4.5

for what value of x is <1 complementary to <2, ifm <1=5x+4 and m <2=7x+2 a.3 b7. c.1 d.14.5
antiseptic1488 [7]
Complementary angles are angles whose sum is equal to 90°.

m∠1 = 5x + 4
m∠2 = 7x + 2

m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°.

5x + 4 + 7x + 2 = 90
12x + 6 = 90
12x = 90 - 6
12x = 84
12x / 12 = 84/12
x = 7  Choice B.

m∠1 = 5x + 4 = 5(7) + 4 = 35 + 4 = 39
m∠2 = 7x + 2 = 7(7) + 2 = 49 + 2 = 51

39 + 51 = 90
90 =90

Point A is at -4 and point B is at 6. Which describes one way to find the point that
blondinia [14]

Answer:

D. For a ratio of 3:2, divide AB into 5 equal parts. Each equal part is 2 units, so the point that divides AB into a 3:2 ratio is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

<em>Point A is at –4 and point B is at 6. Which describes one way to find the point that divides AB into a 3:2 ratio? </em>

  • In a 3:2 ratio there are 3 + 2 = 5 equal parts.
  • The distance between points A and B is: 6 - (-4) = 6 + 4 = 10 units.
  • Each equal part is 10/5 = 2 units.
  • Point 2 is at 2 - (-4) = 6 units from -4
  • Point 2 is at 6 - 2 = 4 units from 6
  • Ratio 6:4 is equivalent to ratio 3:2
