What is the length of segment BD

Mathematics
1 answer:

5 0

Answer:  The length of BD is 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:  BD is a leg of a right triangle, so use the

Pythagorean Theorem  a² + b² = c²  

BC is the hypotenuse here, so that is c = 3

We can use the segment CD as side b = 1.8

We will call BD side a, and solve to find that length.

a² + (1.8)² = 3²   Square the known values of b and c

 a² + 3.24 = 9     Subtract 3.24 from both sides.

a² = 9 - 3.24     Simplify

a²  =  5.76          Find the square root of both sides (Calculator time!)

a = 2.4

Answer:

x= 13 /14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x−5

x−2

=

1

3

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

5x−5

x−2

=

1

3

(5x−5)*(3)=1*(x−2)

15x−15=x−2

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

15x−15−x=x−2−x

14x−15=−2

Step 3: Add 15 to both sides.

14x−15+15=−2+15

14x=13

Step 4: Divide both sides by 14.

14x

Which one does not belong 3:4, 9:12, 12:15, 12:16 and why
svp [43]
3:4 is the answer. Look at it like a pattern. 9:12, 3 goes into both of them, 12:15, 3 goes into both of them, 12:16, 4 goes into both of them. However nothing goes into both the numbers in 3:4.
