What is AE ?
1 answer:
So there are two triangles here: Smaller one (ADE) and bigger one (ABC) and they both are similar.
So you can use proportions here.
AB / AC = AD / AE
AB = AD + DB = 6 + 1 = 7
AC = AE + 3
AD = 6
So plug in these values:
AB / AC = AD / AE becomes
7 / (AE + 3) = 6 / AE
Now do the cross multiply:
7 AE = 6 (AE + 3)
Now solve for AE:
7AE = 6AE + 18
AE = 18

-8,-5, 6, 11, 16: reasoning if the number is a higher negative it makes it less
Answer:
2/10 or 1/2 = .5 you would divide 2 by 2 and 10 divided by 2 (whatever you multiply or divide by on the top you must do on the bottom)
2/10=.50
3/100=.03 (divide 3 by 10=.0
the answer is 6.9.
When you divide a negative by a negative it is a positive
