Answer:

DE = 15

DF = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

E___D___F

EF = DE + DF

38 = (3x +9) + (12x-1)

38 = 15x + 8

15x = 38 - 8

15x = 30

x = 30/15

x = 2

DE = 3x + 9 = 3(2) + 9 = 6 + 9 = 15

DF = 12x - 1 = 12(2) - 1 = 24 - 1 = 23

I hope I helped you^_^

А support wire 12 yards long is attached to the top of a utility pole 10
stira [4]

Answer:

6.6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}

10^{2}+b^{2}=12^{2}        Substitute a= 10 and c=12

100+b^{2}=144      Evaluate the Powers

b^{2}=44               Subtract 100 on both sides.

b=\sqrt{44}             Square root both sides b>0 so you dont need ⊥

b=6.6              Use a calculator to evaluate.
