Answer:

(i) Triangle ABC and triangle ADE are similar triangles. Hence, their ratios will be same.

Ratio of DE to BC is 4:6 => 2:3

To find area, we need to raise the ratio of length to power 2

(2/3)² = 16/x

4/9 = 16/x

x = (16*9)/4

x = 36cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 36cm²

(ii) Ratio of DE to BC is 4:8 => 1:2

(1/2)² = 25/x

1/4 = 25/x

x = 25*4

x = 100cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 100cm²

I'm not sure about the third question, sorry

2^x+5 = 3^1-x use logarithms to solve the exponential equation. round answer to 3 decimal places.
marysya [2.9K]
2^{x+5}=3^{1-x}\ \ \ \ \ /log_2()\\\\log_22^{x+5}=log_23^{1-x}\\\\x+5=(1-x)log_23\\\\x+5=log_23-xlog_23\\\\x+xlog_23=log_23-5\\\\x(1+log_23)=log_23-5\ \ \ \ /:(1+log_23)

x=\frac{log_23-5}{1+log_23}\\-------------\\log_23\approx1.5849625\\----------------\\x\approx\frac{1.5849625-5}{1+1.5849625}\approx-1.321

For the parallelogram find the value of x,y,and z
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

X = 119, Y = 61, Z = 119

Step-by-step explanation:

These are supplementary angles and equal 180.

180 - 61 = 119

Opposite angles are congruent

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 4 to 7. If there were 5
Kipish [7]
4/7 = y/5019....with y being yes votes
cross multiply
(7)(y) = (4)(5019)
7y = 20076
y = 20076/7
y = 2868 <=== yes votes

total of yes and no votes : 5019 + 2868 = 7887
