3.2-4d=2.3d+3 i need the answer

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

d=0.031746

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add 4d to both sides: 3.2=2.3d+3+4d

2. Simplify 2.3d +3+ 4d to 6.3d+3: 3.2=6.3d+3

3. Subtract 3 from both sides: 3.2-3=6.3d

4. Simplify 3.2-3 to 0.2: 0.2-6.3d

5. Divide both sides by 6.3: 0.2/6.3=d

6. Simplify 0.2/6.3 to 0.031746: 0.031746=d

7. Switch sides: d=0.031746

Hope this helped!

What is the length of segment AE?

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$AE=\frac{50}{3}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

In the right triangle ABC

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem fin the hypotenuse AC

$AC^{2} =AB^{2}+BC^{2}$

substitute

$AC^{2} =6^{2}+8^{2}$

$AC^{2} =100$

$AC =10\ units$

step 2

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal

so

$\frac{AB}{CD}=\frac{AC}{CE}$

substitute and solve for CE

$\frac{6}{4}=\frac{10}{CE}\\ \\CE=4*10/6\\ \\CE=\frac{20}{3}\ units$

step 3

Find the length of segment AE

AE=AC+CE

substitute the values

$AE=10\ units+\frac{20}{3}\ units=\frac{50}{3}\ units$
