Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To start calculating, we first need to make some proof.

Firstly, since AB = AC, we know that ΔABC is isosceles, which means that ∠ABC = ∠ACB.

Now, looking only to ΔBDE and ΔCDF, we can see that they are similar, because the two of its angles are congruent:

∠BED=∠CFD

∠DBE=∠DCF

To make it easier to visualize which are the corresponding vertexes, we can draw them like this:

And we need to remember that BC is 24, so:

BD+CD=24

Since the triangles are similar, their corresponding sides have constant ratio, which we can calculate from the corresponding sides DE and CF:

r=\frac{CF}{DE} =\frac{7.5}{4.5} =\frac{5}{3}

This ratio is the same for the other corresponding sides, so we can apply that for BD and CD:

r=\frac{CD}{BD} =\frac{5}{3}\\
 \frac{BD}{CD}=\frac{3}{5}  \\\\
BD=\frac{3}{5} Cd

Thus, the measure of CF is approximately 13, alternative D.

Set up an equation that can be used to solve the problem. Solve the equation and determine the desired value.
Nataly [62]

Answer:  $454.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Tito's weekly salary is always $ 500 per week.

But your weekly commission income depends on the sales you make. Your commissions are 55%.

If we call x the dollar amount of all sales made by Tito in a week, then his income z(x) is given by the following equation:

z (x) = 0.55x + 500

We wish that z (x) = 750.

Then we equate the equation to 750 and solve for the variable x.

0.55x + 500 = 750\\\\0.55x + 500-500 = 750-500\\\\0.55x = 250

\frac{0.55}{0.55}x = \frac{250}{0.55}

x = \$\ 454.55

Total sales made by Tito must be $454.55
