Mandarinka [93]2 years ago

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

Solve x^2 +14x = -24 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?
Korolek [52]
Start with <span>x^2 +14x = -24,

Find HALF the value of 14:  7
Square this:  49
Add 49, and then subtract 49:        x^2 + 14x + 49 - 49 = -24  We have a
                                                                                             perfect square
Rewrite the quadratic as the sq. of a binomial:                    trinomial on
                                                                                              the left
                                                         (x+7)^2 = 25

Take the sqrt of both sides:  x+7 = plus or minus 5

Then x = -2 and x = -12</span>

You ask your friend which U.S. states have the greatest population densities. Your friend says it must be California and Texas b
Brilliant_brown [7]
"<span>-No, because California and Texas also have two of the greatest areas, so they may not have the greatest population densities." 

This is correct as the states such as New Jersey may not have as large as a population as Texas and California but, have a significantly less land than those states. Population density refers to people per km squared, which takes both land and population into account.

Hope this helps!
