Answer:

3√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following;

DB = 3

CD = 6,

Required

find AD.

using the similarity property of a triangle

DB/AD = AD/CD

3/AD = AD/6

3*6 = AD²

18 = AD²

AD = √18

AD= √9*√2

AD = 3√2

Hence the measure of AD is 3√2

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Number line with numbers negative 4, negative 3, negative 2, negative 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 labeled. A dot is made at 2.6 and labeled as square root of 7

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve this problem

- We want to know the position of √7 on the number line, then:

1- Square the √7

# (√7)² = 7

2- Search 7 is between which two square numbers

# 7 is between 4 and 9 which are square numbers

3- ⇒ 4 < 7 < 9 ⇒ take √ for all

# 2 < √7 < 3

∴ The value of √7 is between 2 and 3

* Lets look to the answer to find the correct answer

∵ The first answer is:

   A dot is made at 1.7 and labeled as square root of 7

∵ 1.7 is not between 2 and 3

∴ The first answer is not true

∵ The second answer is:

   A dot is made at 2.6 and labeled as square root of 7

∵ 2.6 is between 2 and 3

∴ The second answer is true

∴ Number line with numbers negative 4, negative 3, negative 2,

  negative 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 labeled. A dot is made at 2.6 and labeled

  as square root of 7

Maru [420]

Answer:

12 cows - 48 legs

4 ducks- 8 legs

- there are many different numbers you can do but if you want to change the numbers and have more ducks then: for every one cow you take away two more ducks.

Step-by-step explanation:

22 total animals

56 total legs

ducks have 2 legs

cows have 4 legs

12 times 4 = 48 ( 12 cows with 4 legs each cow =  48 legs)

4 times 2 = 8 ( 4 ducks with 2 legs each duck = 8 legs)
