Answer: The value of x =2 units.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

AD= CD

BE= EA

So, we get that D and E are the mid-points of AC and AB respectively.

So, by Mid- point theorem , which states that the line joining the two midpoints is parallel to third side and it is half in length of third side i.e.

DE=\frac{1}{2}BC

So, we put the value of DE  and BC ,

5x-3=\frac{1}{2}\times (x+12)\\\\2(5x-3)=x+12\\\\10x-6=x+12\\\\10x-x=12+6\\\\9x=18\\\\x=\frac{18}{9}=2

Hence, the value of x =2 units.

  • Answer:

<em>429 cm²</em>

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A(blue) =</em>

<em>= 2×6cm×10cm + 2×6cm×8cm + 8cm×10cm + (8cm×10cm - 5cm×4cm)</em>

<em>= 120cm² + 96cm² + 80cm² + 60cm²</em>

<em>= 356 cm²</em>

<em>A(green) =</em>

<em>= 4cm×5cm + 2×5cm×5cm/2 + 4cm×7cm</em>

<em>= 20cm² + 25cm² + 28cm²</em>

<em>= 73 cm²</em>

<em>A(total) =</em>

<em>= A(blue) + A(green)</em>

<em>= 356 cm² + 73 cm²</em>

<em>= 429 cm²</em>

Round off the number 5028.563 to the nearest thousand
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

5000

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is to the nearest THOUSAND, you know you are looking for numbers like 1000, 2000, etc. And you see that with 5028.563, it is below 5500, so you do not round up to 6000, so yoyu must round down to 5000.
