Notice the picture
we know DE, or the whole segment is 10x-12
and P is the midpoint
so.. the point P is cutting DE in two equal halves,
namely, DP and PE
so... whatever 10x-12 is, DP is half of that
thus
\bf DP=\cfrac{DE}{2}\implies 3x+2=\cfrac{10x-12}{2}

solve for "x",

how long is DP? well, once you get "x", plug it in 3x+2,
that's how long DP is :)

) Alon started in 60% of his team's basketball games this season. He started a total of 12 games. About how many games did Alon'
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = total number of basketball games that was played by the team this season.

Alon started in 60% of his team’s basketball games this season. This means that he started in a total number of 60 percent of x basketball games this season.

60% of x basketball games this season = 60/100 × x

= 0.6×x = 0.6x

From the information given, Alon started a total of 12 basketball games this season. Therefore,

0.6x = 12

x = 12/0.6 = 20

NOTE: Angles not necessarily drawn to scale.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

x = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Vertical Angle Theorem</u>

When two <u>straight lines intersect</u>, they form two pairs of angles.  The vertically opposite (non-adjacent) angles are <u>congruent</u> (equal).

From inspection of the given diagram, the <u>straight line with points C and D</u> and the <u>straight line with points F and G</u> intersect at <u>point E</u>.

Therefore, angles ∠FEC and ∠DEG are vertically opposite, and so they are equal.

From inspection of the diagram:

  • ∠FEC = x°
  • ∠DEG = 20° + 25° = 45°

Therefore:

⇒ ∠FEC =∠DEG

⇒  x = 45°
