Answer:

ST = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

ST + TU = SU , substitute values

ST + 11 = 20 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

ST = 9

Answer: ST = 9

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of the segment addition postulate.

The<u> Segment Addition Postulate</u> states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

TU = 11

SU = 20

<u>Given expression deducted from the segment addition postulate</u>

ST + TU = SU

<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>

ST + 11 = 20

<u>Subtract 11 on both sides</u>

ST + 11 - 11 = 20 - 11

\boxed{ST =9}

Hope this helps!! :)

\angle{DBC   }=(5x+4)°

\angle{ A  }=(2x-2)°

\angle{C   }=(4x-6)°

we know that,

\angle{DBC}=\angle{A}+\angle{C}

According to the question,

\tt{ 5x+4=2x-2+4x-6  }

\tt{ 5x+4=6x-8  }

\tt{ 6x-5x=4+8  }

\blue{x=12   }

so,

\angle{C }=(4x-6)°=(4×12-6)°=(48-6)°=42°

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you sum everything, you'll get 50 candies. Now you know that 50 candies is 100%.

Now you'll calculate the probability:

12 on 50 : 24.00 %

17 on 50 : 34.00 %

5 on 50 : 10.00 %

6 on 50 : 12.00 %

Hope I was helpful :)
