The slope of AC is -0.4

Proof:
In triangles ABC and DBE,
∠DBE is common to both triangles.
AB = 2DB (D is the midpoint of the interval AB)
Also, BC = 2BE (E is the midpoint of the interval BC)

Thus triangles ABC and DBE are similar in the ratio 2:1

Since, they are similar, ∠BDE must equal ∠BAC (corresponding angles in similar triangles)

If ∠BDE = ∠BAC, DE must be parallel to AC (corresponding angles are equal along parallel lines)
Thus, the slope of AC = the slope of DE
Thus, the slope of AC is -0.4

Answer:

0.324

0.068

Step-by-step explanation:

If Russell is 5'9" ; then he is under 6 feets :

Probability = number of forwards under 6 feets / tot number of players

Probability = 120 / 370 = 0.324

Peter is 6'2" ; Peter is over 6 feets ;

Probability that Peter is a guard = (number of guards over 6 feets / total number of players) = 25 / 370 = 0.0676 = 0.068

Jamal is making two paintings using canvases that are similar rectangles. The length of the smaller canvas is 3 ft and the width
Alex787 [66]
Let's start with what we know:

Smaller canvas:
Length (L_{1}) = 3ft
Width (W_{1}) = 5ft

Larger canvas:
Length (L_{2}) = ?
Width (W_{2}) = 10ft

Since these are similar rectangles, we can cross-multiply to calculate the missing length. Here's that formula:

\frac{ L_{1} }{ L_{2} } =  \frac{ W_{1} }{ W_{2} }
So let's plug it all in from above:

\frac{ 3 }{ L_{2} } = \frac{ 5 }{ 10 }
Now we cross multiply by multiplying the top-left by the bottom-right and vice versa:

(3)(10) = (5)(L_{2})
30 = 5L_{2}
Now divide each side by 5 to isolate L_{2}

\frac{30}{5} =  \frac{ 5L_{2}}{5}
The 5s on the right cancel out, leaving us with:

6 =  L_{2}

So the length of the larger canvas is 6 ft
