Answer:CD = x = 4 units
Explanation:We are given that the two triangles are similar. This means that we can set the similarity proportionality as follows:

W e have:
BC = 20 - x
AC = 20
CD = x
CE = 5
Substitute in the above proportionality and solve for x as follows:

4x = 20 - x
5x = 20
x = 4
Based on he above:
CD = 4 units
BC = 20 - x = 20 - 4 = 16 units
Hope this helps :)
If the goal is to sell at least $1500 worth of tickets then what you can do is add the 12.50+ 6.25 which well equal 18.75. Then you can divide 1500/18.75 which eqauls to 80 meaning at least 80 seats must be sold
The function:
f ( x ) = x * 0.965^t
where x is the initial amount and t is the number of the years
80 = x * 0.965^3
80 = x * 0.89632
x = 80 : 0.89632 ≈ 89
Answer:
The initial amount of animals was 89.
Hope this helps!
Have a nice day :)
