Answer: Using the proportions between the segments, the area of the triangles are:

1. Area of triangle ADC is 25 in^2.

2. Area of triangle BDC is 15 in^2.

3. Area of triangle CDE is 12 in^2.

Answer:

7. $x=3$

8. l=11cm and w=7 cm

9. $x-5\ge12$

10. $\frac{x}{3}\le15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 7.

The given expression is:

$12-3(2x+1)=7x-3(7+x)$

Expand the parenthesis using the distributive property:

$12-6x-3=7x-21-3x$

Group similar terms:

$-6x-7x+3x=-21+3-12$

Simplify

$-10x=-30$

Divide both sides by -10

$x=3$

Question 8:

Let the width of the rectangle be; $w$

The length of the rectangle is $l=w+4$

The perimeter is given as: $P=2(l+w)$

Given that the perimeter P=36, then:

$36=2[(w+4)+w)]$

$\implies 36=2(2w+4)$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\implies 18=2w+4$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$\implies 18-4=2w$

$\implies 14=2w$

$\implies w=7$

The dimensions of the rectangle is: w=7 cm and l=7+4=11cm

Question 9

Let the number be x.

"5 fewer than the number" is written as $x-5$

"5 fewer than a number is at least 12" becomes

$x-5\ge12$

Question 10:

Let the number be x.

The quotient of a number and 3 is written as:

$\frac{x}{3}$

The quotient of a number and 3 is no more than 15 is written as;

$\frac{x}{3}\le15$

HELP I REALLY REALLY NEED THIS HELP MEE SUPER EZ 28 POINTS I REALLY NEED THIS I DONT REALLY CARE IF ITS WRONG AT LEAST YOU TRY ;

Answer:

43. I'm not really sure about this one but here's what I got:

The average height of a 4th grader is 58 inches. (Maybe that'll help) Also if it's by the number of kids in the class....I would assume that there are at most 33 kids in the class....I'm not sure what it's asking...sorry :(

46. There are 8 total marbles so if you were selecting a green marble the probability of getting a green marble would be 3/8. If there are 2 blue marbles then the probability would be 2/8 or 1/4

48. In a deck of cards there are 26 black cards and 26 red cards. Number of event occurrences. Total number of trials. For example, if a dice is rolled 6000 times and the number '5' occurs 990 times, then the experimental probability that '5' shows up on the dice is 990/6000 = 0.165. That should help with this one

49. Since there are 6 sides and each side is a number 1-6, the probability of rolling a six is 1:6

50. This one is easy if you read the question right. There are no pink marbles....

I'm not that great with graphs

I hope this helped a little....some of the questions I didn't understand.
