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

A student writes the equation for a line that has a slope of -6 and passes through the point (2, –8). y -(-8) = -6(x - 2) y -(-8
Mice21 [21]
Y - (-8) = -6 (x-2) is correct everything else is not
y + 8 = -6x + 12
y +:8 - 8 = -6x + 12 - 8
y = -6x + 4 is slope intercept form

No, Yes, No, Yes

using the laws of exponents

(1)

(4^{3})³ = 4^{9}

4³ × 4³ = 4^{6}

4^{9} ≠ 4^{6} → No

(2)

(3^{4})^4 = 3^{16}

3^{8} × 3^{8} = 3^{16} → Yes

(3)

18^{8} = (6 × 3 )^8 = 6^{8} × 3^{8} ≠ 6^{4} × 3^{4} → No

(4)

20^{3} = (4 × 5 )³ = 4³ × 5³ → Yes
