Find the length of dm in the given fig.​

Mathematics

Answer:

DM=12

Step-by-step explanation:

(Let the point where the altitude from D intersects AB be called as point E.) First, let's find the area of parallelogram ABCD. The area of a parallelogram is simply b*h=bh, where b is the parallelogram's base and h is the parallelogram's height. If we let AB and DE be the base and height respectively, since we are already given their lengths, we know that the area of parallelogram ABCD will be AB*DE=15*8=120.

Now, how does this information matter, you might ask? Well, we can take either AB <em>or </em>CB to be the base and either DE or DM to be the height. In this case, let's take the latter two options, as we are looking to find the length of DM.

Therefore, we know that the area of parallelogram ABCD can also be found by calculating CB*DM. Since we know the values of the area and CB, we can write the following equation to solve for DM:

Area = CB*DM

120=10*DM (Substitute Area=120 and CB=10 into the equation)

\frac{120}{10}=\frac{10*DM}{10} (Divide both sides of the equation by 10 to get rid of DM's coefficient)

12=DM (Simplify)

DM=12 (Symmetric Property of Equality)

Hope this helps!

How many zeros does the function f(x) = 3x12 − 17x8 + 11x4 − 6x + 23 have?
dem82 [27]
How many zeros does the function f(x) = 3x12 − 17x8 + 11x4 − 6x + 23 have? 

Answer: the third option (12 zeros..). 

Use ^ to denote an exponent.. 

f(x) = 3x^12 - 17x^8 + 11x^4 - 6x + 23.. 


We know from that fact that the number of zeros (real or complex) in a polynomial is the same as the degree of the polynomial.. 

The degree is the greatest/highest power of the terms, which in this case is 12 (since 12 is the greatest exponent..).. 

The degree is 12, thus it means there are 12 zero's.. 


Answer: the third option (12 zero's )...

SUIVE
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

t = tutoring and g = grocery store

t + g = 15......t = 15 - g

15t + 9g = 159

15(15 - g) + 9g = 159

225 - 15g + 9g = 159

-15g + 9g = 159 - 225

-6g = - 66

g = -66/-6

g = 11 <===== 11 hrs worked at the grocery store

t + g = 15

t + 11 = 15

t = 15 - 11

t = 4.....4 hrs tutoring
