Answer: ME
Step-by-step explanation:
If both triangles are congruent (that's what the sign means), then AD=CB, and CD=AB. Substituting what we are given into CD=AB,
6x-5=3x+10
Solving the equation:
3x=15
x=5
So we know that 2x+4 (the value of AD) becomes 2*5 +4, and you get 14. Since we know that AD=CB, then CB is also 14. No need to find y!
Answer: CB=14
Answer:
8.4 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The error is in the resolution of the proportion. In fact, the initial proportion is correct:

where x is the total cost. However, the following step of the resolution is wrong. In fact, the correct resolution is the following:
- Multiplying by x on both sides:

- Multiplying by 3.5 no both sides:

And now we can find x:

So, the total cost is 8.4 dollars.
Answer:
1. d 2. a 3. d 4. a 5. a
Step-by-step explanation:
For 1, d is negative because, if there an even number of negatives, the answer will be positive. a. would have been correct, but you multiply that one by 0. 0 is not negative, so the answer has to be d.
2. is -21. You can multiply 3 times seven then make it negative, or simply add -7 together 3 times.
3. is d because the two negatives cancel each other out. Even numbers of negatives cancel each other out. therefore, 17 times 6 is 102.
4. -120 is the answer because there are 3 negatives. That is an odd number, so we know our answer is negative. -5 times -3 is 15, and 15 times -8 is -120.
5. is a because -1 times 4 is -4, then -4 times -9 is 36. 36 times -3 is then -108.
Your answer is D. I've had this equation before.
