So since they are similar
AC/BC=CD/CE

so
(66-x)/30=(x+4)/5
times both sides by 5
(66-x)/6=x+4
times both sides by 6
66-x=6(x+4)
distribute
66-x=6x+24
add x to both sides
66=7x+24
minus 24 from both sides
42=7x
divide both sides by 7
6=x
x=6 units

kkurt [141]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x = 0 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                       \frac{x}{x - 2} + \frac{x - 1}{x + 1} = -1

1)

                      \frac{x(x + 1) + (x - 2)(x - 1)}{(x - 2)(x + 1)} = - 1

Expand

2)                  x² + x + x² - x - 2x + 2 = -1(x - 2)(x + 1)

Simplify

3)                  2x² -2x + 2 = -1(x² + x - 2x - 2)

4)                  2x² - 2x + 2 = -x² + x + 2

Equal to zero

5)                  2x² - 2x + 2 + x² - x - 2 = 0

6)                  3x² - 3x = 0

Factor

7)                  3x(x - 1) = 0

8)                  3x₁ = 0                   x₂ - 1 = 0

9)                    x₁ = 0/3                x₂ = 1

10)                  x₁ = 0                    x₂ = 1

A cube has how many vertices
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: 8 vertices

Step-by-step explanation: A cube has 6 square faces. Each segment formed by the intersection of 2 faces is called an edge so a cube has 12 edges. Each point formed by the intersection of 3 edges is called a vertex so a cube has 8 vertices.

kumpel [21]

Troy has a basis of $39 per share

total value of shares is $3900

Step-by-step explanation:

On July 1, the date of the gift, the stock was selling for $39 per share.

Troy's basis in the stock  = current value of shares

No need to consider the base rate which is in 15 years ago

The current rate of 100 shares =  $39 × 100 =  $3900

Troy has a basis of $39 per share

total value of shares is $3900
