Solution:

In Parallelogram B CDE

BC= DE, BC ║DE

CD = BE , CD ║BE

Also, ∠B=∠D and ∠C=∠E →→In a parallelogram opposite sides are equal and parallel, as well as opposite angles are equal.Diagonals Bisect each other.

∠B= 60° , ∠C ED= 40°

CE is a transversal and BC║DE.

∠CED=∠BCE = 40° →→Alternate interior angles

In Δ BCE

∠B + ∠BCE + ∠BEC= 180°→→→Angle sum property of Triangle.

60° + 40° + ∠ B E C= 180°

100° + ∠BEC=180°

∠BEC= 180° -100°

∠BEC= 80°

Answer the question below
Kobotan [32]

Answer:There are 96 apples in the 12th bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you add the number of apples in the 11 bags.

6+28+16+27+10=87

If the mean number of apples in the 12 bags were 8, the total number of apples are 96.  

Using this info, we subtract 87 from 96 to 9.

Hence, there are 9 apples in the 12th bag.

I need help with Question 14 . I need to submit it by monday...<br> Pls help
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Distance between A and B is 5400 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider "D" the letter to identify distance between A and B

Let's use "t" to identify the time of the first encounter (Devi and Kumar), and create an equation that states that the distance covered by Devi (at 100 m/min) in time "t", is equal to the total distance D minus what Kumar has covered at his speed (80 m/min) in that same time:

Recall that distance equals the speed  times the time:

distance= speed * time

First encounter:

100 * t = D - 80 * t

180 * t = D    Equation (1)

Not, 6 minutes later (at time t+6) , Devi and Li Ting meet .

Then for this encounter the distance covered by Devi equals total distance d minus the distance covered by Li Ting:

100 *(t+6) = D - 75 * (t+6)

100 t + 600 = D - 75 t - 450

175 T + 150 = D    Equation (2)

Now, let's equal equation (1) to equation (2), since D should be the same:

180 t = 175 t + 150

5 t = 150

t = 30

Then the time t (first encounter) is 30 minutes. Knowing this, we can use either equation to find D:

From Equation (1) for example: D = 180 * t = 180 * 30 = 5400 meters

Simplify 6 - 3(4 - 3x)<br> -3x - 6<br> 9x + 18<br> 9x - 6
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

6 (19 x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 6×9 x + 18×9 x - 6

-6×9 = -54:

6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x + -54 x + 18×9 x - 6

18×9 = 162:

6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 54 x + 162 x - 6

Grouping like terms, 6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 54 x + 162 x - 6 = (-3 x - 54 x + 162 x) - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6):

(-3 x - 54 x + 162 x) - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6)

-3 x - 54 x + 162 x = 105 x:

105 x - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6)

6 - 6 = 0:

105 x - 3 (4 - 3 x)

-3 (4 - 3 x) = 9 x - 12:

9 x - 12 + 105 x

Grouping like terms, 105 x + 9 x - 12 = (105 x + 9 x) - 12:

(105 x + 9 x) - 12

105 x + 9 x = 114 x:

114 x - 12

Factor 6 out of 114 x - 12:

Answer: 6 (19 x - 2)
