Even though im not giving you the whole answer, let me give you something that will definitely help you:
a regular hexagon is made of 6 identical triangles with the apothem as the height of the triangle A = 6 * 1/2 base * apothem which can be simplified to A = 1/2 perimeter * apothem
This in itself is a big part of what you need. I hope this is enough info for you to keep going

What is the value of x and the length of segment DE?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Part 1) x=6.6\ units

Part 2) DE=16.2\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the value of x

we know that

Triangles CDF and FDE are similar

therefore

The ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

so

CD/FD=FD/DE

\frac{5}{9}=\frac{9}{2x+3} \\ \\5*(2x+3)=9*9\\ \\10x+15=81\\ \\10x= 81-15\\ \\10x=66\\ \\ x=6.6\ units

Part 2) Find the length of DE

DE=2x+3

substitute the value of x

DE=2(6.6)+3=16.2\ units

Ella has a box of chocolate candies. She gives 1/3 of the candies to her sister, 4 to her brother, and eats the remaining 12 can
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

24 candies originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the 4 to how many you had left, then think about that number, 16, and what goes into 16 evenly 2 times? 8 and originally she gave away 1/3 of the box and if you were to add another 8 to the box it would be 24 divided by 1/3, -,-4,= 12.

Need help quickly! Thanks
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

y = -2^x

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of a function is in the form of y = h(x)

When the graph of this function is reflected across x-axis,

Transformed function will be,

y = -h(x)

Further reflected across y-axis, then the transformed function will be,

y = -h(-x)

By this rule,

Given equation when reflected across x-axis,

y = -(\frac{1}{2})^{x}

Further reflected across y-axis,

y = -(\frac{1}{2})^{-x}

y = -(2^{-1})^x

y = -2^x

Point B is on line segment AC. Given AB = 3x, BC =4x+8 and AC = 5x + 10, determine the numerical length of AC
Vlada [557]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

determine the numerical length of AC

We know that Ac is equaled to ab and bc because they are the segements between ac  

                3x                                4x+8

A-----------------------------B----------------------------------C

|<----------------------------5x+10 --------------------------->|

AB + BC = AC

solving for x

3x + 4X + 8 = 5X + 10

3x+4x-5x= 10-8

2x=2

x=1

Now sub that in for ac

AC= 5x +10

AC= 5(1) +10

AC= 5 +10

AC = 15

Which representation has a constant of variation of -2.5
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of variation is found using the slope formula:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The given relation is

X : -2 , -3, -4, -5  

Y : -5, -7.5,-10,-12.5

We can use any two ordered pair to find the constant of variation.

Using (-2,-5) and (-3,-7.5), we have

m=\frac{-7.5--5}{-3--2} =\frac{-2.5}{-1} =2.5

The constant of variation is 2.5

We need to repeat this for all the options to identify the one with -2.5 as slope.

unfortunately, you did not provide the remaining options.
