Use the left and right triangles. (the two smaller ones -- ACD and BCD)
By similar triangles ACD is similar to BCD
on the left AD/CD is one ratio
On the right CD/DB is the other. These two ratios are equal because they are corresponding parts.
AD / CD = CD / DB
AD = 3
DB = 12
CD = ??
Substitute.
3/CD = CD/12 Cross multiply
36 = CD^2
sqrt(36) = sqrt(CD^2)
CD = 6 <<<<==== Answer.
A <<<<====Answer.
Answer:
Program C allows students to earn a Mathematics degree (B.A. or B.S.) by combining courses in the Department of Mathematics with courses from one other department. In most areas of specializations, mathematical and/or quantitative courses in other departments are part of the math degree program. All Program C students take a minimum of five core math courses: Calculus I, Calculus II, Calculus III, Introduction to Linear Algebra, and a proofs course, usually either Introduction to Abstract Algebra or Fundamental Properties of Spaces and Functions I.
Step-by-step explanation:
To start to figure this problem out, we can first figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister.
50 - 40 = 10, so you read 10 more pages in 1 hour.
Now we have to figure out how much more you would read in 1/2 an hour. Since 1/2 an hour is 1/2 of an hour, we can divide 10 by 2 to figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister. 10 divided by 2 is 5, so you read 5 more pages every half hour.
Answer:
-12.133 would be your answer
