Answer and explanation please

Mathematics
1 answer:
mote1985 [20]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=17, y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we know that,

Angle CDB = 4x-5

Angle BDE = 10y-3

Angle DEA= 97-2x

Though we are NOT given that line segments BD and AE are parallel, we may assume so by the construction of the triangle.

Hence, BD II AE and are cut by the transversal CE,

Hence,

Angle CDB = Angle CEA  {Corresponding angles are equal}

4x-5=97-2x\\4x+2x=97+5\\6x=102\\x=17\\\\So,\\Angle\ CDB\ = (4x-5) = (4*17-5) = (68-5) = 63

As we observe that,

Angle CDB and Angle BDE form a linear pair, they are supplementary.

Hence,

Angle CDB + Angle BDE = 180

Thus,\ 63+ Angle\ BDE=180\\Angle\ BDE\ = 180-63=117\\\\As\ BDE=(10y-3),\\117=10y-3\\117+3=10y\\120=10y\\y=12

at the same time a 15 foot pole casts a 7.5 foot shadow a nearby tree casts an 11 foot shadow how tall is the tree​
soldier1979 [14.2K]

answer: 22

15/7.5 = x/11

cross multiply

7.5x = 165

divide by 7.5 on both sides to get the x alone

7.5x/7.5 = 165/7.5

x = 22

the tree is 22 feet

The difference of the present ages of two sister in 5 yrs
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

4 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

let their ages be x and x - 5, then in 4 years their ages will be

x + 4 and x - 5 + 4 = x - 1 , and the product is 104, thus

(x + 4)(x - 1) = 104 ← expand factors on left using FOIL

x² + 3x - 4 = 104 ( subtract 104 from both sides )

x² + 3x - 108 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 12)(x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = - 12

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 9

Thus

Their present ages are 9 and 9 - 5 = 4
