This is a proportion problem.

Let's make her Length x and her height 1/3 x.

1/3 x = 20 inches

x = 6 2/3 inches

Molly's height is 6 2/3 inches.

Check it.

6 2/3 x 3 = ? (change the mixed number to a fraction)

20/3 x 3 = ? (multiply)

60/3 = ? (divide)

20 inches. Yes, it checks.

Use the diagram and the value of x to find the measures of BCE and ECF.

stepan [7]

Answer:

125° and 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ BCE and ∠ ECF are adjacent angles and are supplementary, thus

10x + 15 + 5x = 180, that is

15x + 15 = 180 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

15x = 165 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x = 11

Thus

∠ BCE = 10x + 15 = 10(11) + 15 = 110 + 15 = 125°

∠ ECF = 5x = 5(11) = 55°

HELP!!!!

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You just need the distance formula here. It's very simple to follow:

$d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }$

which, for us, looks like this:

$d=\sqrt{(13-4)^2+(19-7)^2}$ and

$d=\sqrt{9^2+12^2}$ and

$d=\sqrt{81+144}$ and

$d=\sqrt{225}$ so

d = 15
