Karolina [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

AB is 16 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AE = EC

BF = FC

EF = 8 and DF = 10

To Find:

AB = ?

Solution:

Mid Point Theorem:

The Midpoint Theorem states that "the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side".

AE = EC .....Given

Therefore E is the Mid Point of AC.

BF = FC .....Given

Therefore F is the Mid Point of BC.

Therefore,

EF || AB            ........................Mid Point Theorem.

         ..............Mid Point Theorem.

Substituting the values we get

Therefore AB is 16 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Radda [10]

Answer:

S = v1 t1 = 7 t1    traveling downstream

S = v2 t2 = 5 t2    traveling upstream

7 t1 = 5 t2

7 (6 - t2) = 5 t2     since t1 + t2 = 6

42 - 7 t2 = 5 t2

t2 = 42 / 12 = 3.5 hrs so t1 = 2.5 hrs

S = 7 t1 = 7 * 2.5 = 17.5 mi

Also, S = 5 t2 = 5 * 3.5 = 17.5 mi

Which statement compares the two numbers correctly?
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have-

(6 x .1) + (3 x .01) + (2  x .001)

So, we will solve inside of the parenthesis first.

6 x .1  = <u>.6</u>

So, we got that settled next-

3 x .01 = <u>.03</u>

We got that settled last-

2 x .001 = <u>.002</u>

Lastly, we add them all.

.6 + .03 + .002 =  .632

Now we compare.

.632 > .629

So, there is your answer!

Hope this helps!

The art club had an election to select a president. 57 members voted in the election and 19 did not vote. What percentage of the
laila [671]

Answer:

75% voted

Step-by-step explanation:

you add the 75 to 19 to figure out the total amount of people in the club.

75+19=76

Then you divide the people who voted which is 57 by the total amount of people in the club which is 76

57/76=0.75

then you move the decimal two places to the left and you get 75%
