If D is the midpoint of CE, CD= 9x-7, and DE= 3x+17, find CE

tatuchka [14]

Hello!

Since D is the midpoint and the two equations are and both sides of point D the equations equal each other

9x - 7 = 3x + 17

Now you solve it algebraically

Add 7 to both sides

9x = 3x + 24

Subtract 3x from both sides

6x = 24

Divide both sides by 6

x = 4

Now we put this into both equations and add them

9(4) - 7 = 29
3(4) + 17 = 29

29 + 29 = 58

The answer is 58 units

Hope this helps!

What is the area of the rectangle? shoe your work! do not round anything until the very end and round your final answer to the t

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 42 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

In this problem

AB=DC

BC=AD

see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem

we have that

$L=BC\\W=AB$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have the points

$A(2,-1),B(5,2),C(12,-5),D(9,-8)$

Find out the distance BC

we have

$B(5,2),C(12,-5)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-5-2)^{2}+(12-5)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-7)^{2}+(7)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{98}\ units$

Find out the distance AB

we have

$A(2,-1),B(5,2)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(2+1)^{2}+(5-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{18}\ units$

Find out the area

$A=(L)(W)$

we have

$L=d_B_C=\sqrt{98}\ units$

$W=d_A_B=\sqrt{18}\ units$

substitute

$A=(\sqrt{98})(\sqrt{18})=42.0\ units^2$

A long paper strip with a width of 5 cm is folded, as shown in the picture. Find the smallest possible area of the gray triangle

Stolb23 [73]

By using some logic and the formula of the triangle's area, we will find that the smallest possible area is 12.5 cm²

How to start thinking about the problem.

First of all, for the configuration of this paper strip, we can see that the base of the triangle will always be equal of the width of the paper. Thus, the smallest area will be only dependent of the height of the triangle.

Now, we need to analyze the picture to figure out how we can get the smallest height possible for that triangle.

What is the smallest height possible.

Doing this, we shall see that the smallest height possible is actually when the height equals the width itself, as it's shown in the attached image.

How to calculate the smallest area possible.

Thus, to calculate the smallest area, we just have to use the formula of the area of the triangle, which is $\frac{b\times h}{2}$ , where b is the base and h is the height.

As we previously found, for this question, the

base = height = width of the paper = 5cm

Now, we just have to calculate it with the formula

$Area = \frac{base \times height}{2} \\\\
\\
Area = \frac{5 \times 5}{2} \\
\\
Area = \frac{25}{2}\\
 \\
Area = 12.5 cm^{2}$
