What is the length of DE

Mathematics
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

DE = 20units

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ ABC,

angle A is congruent to angle B.... (given)

therefore, ΔABC is an isoceles triangle.

therefore, CA = CB..... (side opposite to congruent angles are congruent in an isoceles triangle)

therefore, CB = 4 units

In ΔCDE,

angle D is congruent to angle E.... (given)

therefore, ΔCDE is an isoceles triangle.

therefore, CD = CE

therefore, CD = 8 units

ΔCDE ~ ΔCBA

therefore,

\frac{cd}{cb}  =  \frac{ce}{ca} =  \frac{de}{ab}   \\ therefore \:  \frac{8}{4}  =  \frac{8}{4}  =  \frac{de}{10 }  \\ therefore \\  \frac{2}{1 }  =  \frac{de}{10 }  \\ de \:  = 2 \times 10 = 20units

Answer:

the answer would be 5

Step-by-step explanation:

because if there was 15 truth or false questions that would be 45 points and if there where 5 essay questions that would be 55 questions 45+55=100 points and 15+5 questions is 20 questions so there would be 5 essay questions.

A company buys pens at the rate of $7.50 per box for the first 10 boxes, $5.50 per box for the next 10 boxes, and $4.50 per box
photoshop1234 [79]

So it is really easy to solve firstly we can see how much does the first 10 boxes make which makes around 75$ obviously. Secondly 55$ for the next 10 boxes.

So for now we can simply calculate that we have spent around 130$ which means 20 boxes. The remaining money left is 18$ so we can buy 18/4.5 = 4 only 4 boxes with that money. Hence a total of 24 boxes.

<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>

Compound interest is the addition of interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit, or in other words, interest on principal plus interest.

A = P(1 + r/n)^{nt}

P =5,500,000

r =4%= 0.004

n =4

t= 5 years.

Now,

A = P(1 + r/n)^{nt}

A = 5,500,000.00(1 + 0.04/4)^{(4)(5)}

A = 5,500,000.00(1 + 0.01)^{20}

A = $6,711,045.22

Hence, The total amount accrued is $6,711,045.22.
