Answer:

The correct option is E. 8

The value of h is 8 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD

AC = 20

DC = 4

∴ AD = AC - DC=20-4=16

To Find:

h = ?

Solution:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD      ................Given

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.

\frac{BD}{CD} =\frac{AD}{BD} =\frac{BA}{CB}\ \textrm{corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion}\\  

On substituting the given values we get

\dfrac{BD}{CD} =\dfrac{AD}{BD}

\dfrac{h}{4} =\dfrac{16}{h}\\\therefore h^{2}=64\\\therefore h=8\ unit

The value of h is 8 unit.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

John is 9.21 km form the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

John leaves school to go home. His bus drives 6 kilometres north and then goes 7 kilometres west. It is required to find John's distance from the school. It is equal to the shortest path covered or its displacement. So,

d=\sqrt{6^2+7^2} \\\\d=9.21\ km

So, John is 9.21 km form the school.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

1a)  Length = 7x + 3  & Width = 4x - 2

1b)  Area = 28x^2 -2x -6

1c)  Area = 2774 sq. m

2.  (x-4)(y+7)

Step-by-step explanation:

1a)

The length given as words is "3 more than 7 times x"

The width given as words is "4 times x minus 2"

The expression for length would be  7x + 3

The expression for width would be 4x - 2

1b)

The area is length * width

Since we already know the algebraic expressions for length and width from part (a) above, we use the formula:

Area = (7x+3)(4x-2) = 28x^2 -14x + 12x - 6 = 28x^2 -2x -6

Area = 28x^2 -2x -6

1c)

Given x = 10, we put this into the area expression we found in (b) above.Let's see:

28x^2 -2x -6\\=28(10)^2 -2(10) -6\\=2774

Area = 2774 sq. m

2.

We can group the first two terms and next two terms and write up:

xy-4y+7x-28\\(xy-4y)+(7x-28)\\y(x-4)+7(x-4)\\(x-4)(y+7)

That's the factored form.
