What is the length of CD? in this diagram ABC ~ EDC

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

These triangles are similar. This means that they are going to have the same ratios within their different sides.

AC and CE already have measurements so we are going to find the ratio between them. We can do this by dividing 21 by 7.

21 / 7 = 3

So, since the ratio between AC and CE is 3, then the rest of the triangle has a ratio of 3 with the other triangle.

So, let's set up an equation so we can find the value of x.

21/7 = (20 - x)/x

Cross multiply.

21x = 140 - 7x

Add 7x to both sides of the equation.

28x = 140

Divide 28 from 140.

x = 5

Now that we have the value of x, then we can find the measurement of CD.

The measurement of CD is 5.

Give the “best” big-oh notation to describe the complexity of the algorithm that prints all bit strings of length n.
artcher [175]

It is correct to state that a bit can be in one of 2 states, either 1 or 0.

<h3>What is a bit?</h3>

A bit is is a single binary digit. A bit can either be "1" or "0".

<h3>What is the explanation to the above answer?</h3>

We stated that It is correct to indicate that a bit can be in one of 2 states, either 1 or 0. This indicates that 2ⁿ strings must be created in total. The string must then be processed twice.

  • The first time, for generation and
  • The second for reading.

Hence, Our time is now O(2ⁿ⁺¹) = O(2ⁿ)

Whoever give me the answer to this i will mark them as the Brainest if x = 5,y = 2 and z = 3 then xz ( 4y- 2z) is A. 3445 B. 210
max2010maxim [7]

x= 5 x z= 3 = 15 (4y - 2z) = 60 - -30 = 30 so its C
