Mandarinka [93]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangle ADE and triangle ABC are similar, that means their sides are proportional, thus we get the equation

\frac{AD}{AB} =\frac{DE}{BC}

\frac{2}{6} = \frac{x}{12}

6x = 24\\x=4

Thus the value of x is 4

Work out the perimeter of the triangle when the sides are : 3x-5 2x 19-x
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

4x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the triangle is equal to the sum of its three sides.

The sides of the triangle are 3x-5, 2x, and 19-x.

Calculate their sum.

3x - 5 + 2x + 19 - x

Rearrange.

3x + 2x - x + 19 - 5

Add or subtract like terms.

4x + 14

The perimeter of the triangle is 4x + 14.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

\boxed{AC = 42.99}

AC = \frac{29}{0.674}

AC = 42.99

7n + 20 ≥ 370

7n ≥ 370 - 20

7n ≥ 350

n ≥ 350/7

n ≥ 50 pages per day for the remaining 7 days
