Answer:

CE = 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2bh

6 = 1/2 (b)(4)

6 = 2b

3 = b     b represent AB, so BC and CD is 3 unit also

Length of CE , you have a right triangle with a leg(AE) = 4 and and the other leg (AC) = 6 and the hypotenuse (CE) = x

The figure is a right triangle so you know that a² + b² = c²

4² + 6² = x²

16 + 36 = x²

52 = x²

\sqrt{52 } = x

7.211 ≈ 7.2 = CE

How is solving 2x+c=d similar to solving 2x+1=9 for x? How are they different? How can you use x+c=d to solve 2x+1=9?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't use 2x + c = d for solving 2x + 1 = 9 . Here we can find the value of x from 2x + 1 = 9.

2x + 1 =9\\=>2x=9-1\\=>2x=8\\=>x=4

Putting the value of x in 2x + c = d :-

2x+c=d\\=>2*4+c=d\\=>8+c=d

But still we don't know the exact value of c & d . If in the question at least we could have got one exact value of either c or d , then we could find out the value of other variable.

17. Lyndsey is at basketball practice preparing to shoot free throws. The probability of Lyndsay
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Probabilty that Lindsay makes her first free throw on the third shot =0.027

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Probability of Lindsay making a free throw =82\% =\frac{82}{100}=0.82

To find probability of Lindsay making her first free throw in the third shot.

If Lindsay makes her first free throw on the third shot then its means the first two shots must have been unsuccessful ones.

Probability of Lindsay not making a free throw 1-0.82=0.18

First shot ⇒ P(unsuccessful)=0.18

Second shot ⇒ P(unsuccessful)=0.18

Third shot ⇒ P(successful)=0.82

∴ Probabilty that Lindsay makes her first free throw on the third shot =0.18\times0.18\times0.82=0.027
