Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is
= 
, substitute values
= 
( cross- multiply )
8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 7.5

Answer:
-11.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine the negative terms, obtaining -3.5 - 12.8, or -16.3.
Next, combine 5 and this last result: -16.3 + 5 = -11.3
The answer is
3^2 multiply by 5
A] Let the total number of pages be x, this is equivalent to 1/1
The fraction of novel read on the first day is 1/4
The remaining fraction of pages will be:
1/1-1/4=3/4
Fraction read on the second day:
1/2×3/4=3/8
The remaining fraction will be:
1-(3/8+1/4)
=1-5/8
=3/8
Thus the fraction read on the third day is 3/8:
therefore:
3/8 represents 108 hence:
x=(1/1)/(3/8)×108
x=288 pages
b] The number of pages read on the second day will be:
(total number of pages)×(fraction of pages read on the second day)
total number of pages=288
fraction read on the second day=3/8
hence number of pages read on this date will be:
=288×3/8
=108
