<h3>
Answer: 8.2 (choice B)</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
First we'll need the length of segment BD, which I'll call x for now. The similar triangles allow us to set up the proportion below to solve for x
AD/BD = BD/DC
13/x = x/4
13*4 = x^2
52 = x^2
x^2 = 52
x = sqrt(52)
Segment BD is exactly sqrt(52) units long.
------------
Now focus your attention on triangle BDC. We'll use the pythagorean theorem to find BC
(BD)^2 + (DC)^2 = (BC)^2
( sqrt(52) )^2 + ( 4 )^2 = ( m )^2
52 + 16 = m^2
68 = m^2
m^2 = 68
m = sqrt(68)
m = 8.2462 approximately
m = 8.2
Divide the whole numbers:
2.04 / -2 = -1.02
When Dividing scientific notation, subtract the exponents from each other:
-9 - -5 = -9 +5 = -4
The answer becomes -1.02 x 10^-4
Answer:
-13 < 16
Step-by-step explanation:
(4 is x, -5 is y)
-5 - 8 < 4(4)
-13 < 16
It is true and is a solution
