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

C - 0.17c = 0.83c
When you write “c” at the start, or x or whatever, it has an understood (invisible) number 1. So you’re subtracting the decimal on the next variable from 1.

Let 3x^2+kx+4. determine all values of k such that the quadratic equation f(x) =0 has one real root
user100 [1]
//I'll use the discriminant rule for this.
b^2 - 4ac = 0 when one real root

Therefore, k^2 - 4*3*4= 0
k^2 = 48
k= +-4√3
