Answer:

1) they are similar by AAA postulate

2) 9.6 cm

Explanation:

Triangles CAB and CED are similar

because:

1) both have the same angle C

(vertically opposite angles)

2) Angle A = Angle E

(alternate angles)

3) Angle B = Angle D

(alternate angles)

CA/CE = AB/ED

10/8 = 12/DE

DE = 12 × 8/10

DE = 9.6 cm

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle ACE = DCE since they are vertical angles

Angle A = Angle E parallel lines cut by a transversal form congruent alternate interior angles

Angle B = Angle D parallel lines cut by a transversal form congruent alternate interior angles

When all three angles are equal, the triangles are similar.

We can use ratios to find DE

DE         CE  

------- = ----------

AB           AC

DE         8

------- = ----------

12           10

Using cross products

10 DE = 8*12

10 DE = 96

Divide by 10

DE = 9.6

Bring the fraction a/a−4 to a denominator of 16−a^2<br><br> really do appreciate this thx
RSB [31]

Answer:

-a(a+4)/(16 - a²)

Step-by-step explanation:

            a/(a - 4)                  Multiply by (a + 4)/(a + 4)

= a(a + 4)/[(a – 4)(a + 4)]     Multiply the denominatorator terms

= a(a + 4)/(a² - 16)               Multiply by -1/(-1)

= -a(a+4)/(-a² + 16)              Reorder terms in denominator

= -a(a+4)/(16 - a²)

Suppose the null hypothesis is not rejected. State the conclusion based on the results of the test. Three years​ ago, the mean p
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

A. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean price of a​ single-family home has decreased

Step-by-step explanation:

To study : Whether the mean price of single family home has decreased or not -

Null Hypothesis [H0] = There is no change in mean price of single family home

Alternate Hypothesis [H1] = There is change (decrease) in mean price of single family home

If the null hypothesis is not rejected, it implies that 'there is no change in mean price of single family home' has been statistically accepted.

So, it states that - There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean price of a​ single-family home has decreased
