DE + EF = 4x+2

DE = x+7

EF = 7

Substitute these in

x + 7 + 7 = 4x + 2

x + 14 = 4x + 2

subtract x from both sides

14 = 3x + 2

subtract 2 from both sides

3x = 12

divide both sides by 3

x = 4

substitute this in to find the length of DE

DE = x + 7

(4) + 7 = 11

the answer is 11

From figure we can see that:

DE=DF -EF

x+7 = 4x+2-7

combining like terms

x+7=4x-5

subtract x on the right side from 4x

7=(4x-x) -5

7=3x-5

add 5 on the left side

7+5=3x

12=3x

divide both sides by 3

x=4

DE=x+7 =4+7

DE=11

VashaNatasha [74]

<em>The question has inconsistent or incomplete data, so I'm filling the holes with key data.</em>

Answer:

<em>Every people at dinner received one-tenth of the original turkey= 0.1</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportions</u>

If some fraction a/b of a whole total M is to be computed and later removed, we proceed as follows

* Compute the portion to be removed as a/b*M

* Subtract it from the total quantity: M-a/b*M=M(1-a/b)

I'm assuming 1/5 of the turkey was lost due to overcooking. It means that (1-1/5) of the turkey remained for dinner, that is, 4/5 of the turkey.

Each people at dinner received the same amount of the remaining, so we must divide 4/5 by 8, to get 4/40, or 1/10. It means that every people at dinner received one-tenth of the original turkey
