Answer:
The length of DE is 14 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC . (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively). we have to find the length of DE.
Given lengths are AC=20cm, AB=17cm, and BD=11.9cm
In ΔBDE and ΔBAC
∠BDE=∠BAC (∵Corresponding angles)
∠BED=∠BCA (∵Corresponding angles)
By AA similarity rule, ΔBDE~ΔBAC
∴their corresponding sides are in proportion

First you have to make all the fractions have a common denominator to add them so since 3/16 is the largest denominator you have to convert the others to have the denominator of 16. 1/8 = 2/16. 1/4 = 4/16. so if you add the numerators that’s 3 + 2 + 4 = 9. so the answer would be 9/16, and this cannot be simplified so it is your final answer:)

Do you have a picture or anything that you could show us?
Answer:
price = x * 0.2
or
price = x * 0.454 * 0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case we must know either the mass of the cake or its volume.
Given the case that we know the mass of the cake, it would be:
price = x * 0.2
where x is the mass of the cake in ounces, that is to say if for example a cake has a mass of 10 ounces, it would be:
price = 10 * 0.2 = 2
which means that each cake costs $ 2
Given the case of the volume, we must first multiply the density by this volume in order to calculate the mass and finally the price.
price = x * 0.454 * 0.2
where x is the volume of the cake in cubic inches, if for example the volume is 10 cubic inches it would be:
price = 10 * 0.454 * 0.2 = 0.908
which means that each cake costs $ 0.9
