Answer:
-2.1
Step-by-step explanation:
-7.3 - 11.2 - 1.7 + 0 + 0 +2.2 + 3.3
--------------------------------------------------
7
= -2.1
Let Cedric's age be c
tyshon= 3c-3
3c-3 +c =3c+c-3 = 4c-3
4c-3=57
4c=60
c=15
tyshon=15×3-3 = 42
So there are two triangles here: Smaller one (ADE) and bigger one (ABC) and they both are similar.
So you can use proportions here.
AB / AC = AD / AE
AB = AD + DB = 6 + 1 = 7
AC = AE + 3
AD = 6
So plug in these values:
AB / AC = AD / AE becomes
7 / (AE + 3) = 6 / AE
Now do the cross multiply:
7 AE = 6 (AE + 3)
Now solve for AE:
7AE = 6AE + 18
AE = 18
(-3,4)(0,-3)
slope = (-3 - 4) / (0 - (-3) = -7/3 <=
We can factor this by using grouping. Take the leading coefficient and multiply it by the constant. In this case we get 5*-7 = -35.
Now we need 2 numbers that add to 2 and multiply to be -35. The numbers are -5 and 7.
So split the 2r into these two terms and group.
(5r^2 - 5r) + (7r - 7)
Factor both groups.
5r(r-1) + 7(r-1)
The factors of (r-1) can be added together to get the answer.
(r-1)(5r+7)
