What Is The Length Of CD? In This Diagram, AABC~ AEDC.

Answers

Answer 1

The length of CD will be option C. 3

From given diagram, triangle ABC and EDC meet at a common vertex C.

So, triangle ABC and EDC both are congruent to each other.

Applying the similarity property of congruence, ratio of the congruent triangles' corresponding sides will be equal.

Therefore,

AB/ED = AC/EC = BC/CD

AC/EC = BC/CD

18/6 = (12 - x)/x

Simplifying the expression,

We get

18x = 6(12 - x)

Multiplicating the terms in right hand side,

18x = 72 - 6x

Solving 6x on both sides,

we get

18x + 6x = 72 - 6x + 6x

24x = 72

Dividing both the sides by 24, we get

24x/24 = 72/24

x = 3

Hence, the length of CD is 3.

use the point-slope formula to write an equation of the line that passes through (6,- 3) and (3,1).
Write the answer in slope-intercept form (if possible).

Answers

The slope of the line is

[tex]\frac{-3-1}{6-3}=\frac{-4}{3}[/tex]

Substituting into point-slope form using the point (3,1),

[tex]\boxed{y-1=-\frac{4}{3}(x-3)}\\\\y-1=-\frac{4}{3}x+4\\\\\boxed{y=-\frac{4}{3}x+5}[/tex]

Answer: The equation of the line that passes through (6,- 3) and (3,1) is  y = [tex]\frac{-4x}{3}[/tex] +5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope formula : (y - y1) = m(x - x1)

y = y coordinate of second point

y1     = y coordinate of first point

m = slope

x = x coordinate of second point

x1     = x coordinate of first point

slope (m) = [tex]\frac{1-(-3)}{3-6}[/tex]

          m = [tex]\frac{4}{-3}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{-4}{3}[/tex]

now put values in point-slope formula  : (y - 1) = [tex]\frac{-4}{3}[/tex](x - 3)

y - 1 = [tex]\frac{-4x}{3\\}[/tex] + 4

y = [tex]\frac{-4x}{3}[/tex] +5

So the equation of the line that passes through (6,- 3) and (3,1) is y = [tex]\frac{-4x}{3}[/tex]+5.

A wider function would have the following equation

f(x) = k|x|

Where:

k > 0

From the list of options, we have:

From Kansas City to Denver is twice as far as from Kansas City to St. Louis the two distance together total 900 miles what are the two distance?

Answers

Answer:

KC to StL = 300

KC to Den = 600

Step-by-step explanation:

KC to StL was the base distance, so we'll call that x.

KC to Denver is twice as long, so we'll call that 2x.

If we add the together is is 900 miles total.

x + 2x = 900    Combine like terms

3x = 900          Divide by 3

x = 300

If x is 300, then 2x is 600.

if the ratio of three angles of a triangle is 2:3:4 find the size of the largest angle​

Answers

Answer: 80°

Step-by-Step Explanation:

By Angle Sum Property of a Triangle, all angles in a Triangle add up to 180°

Finding the Value of ‘x’ :-

2x + 3x + 4x = 180
5x + 4x = 180
9x = 180
x = 180/9
=> x = 20

Finding each Angle :-

2x = 2(20) = 2 * 20 = 40°
3x = 3(20) = 3 * 20 = 60°
4x = 4(20) = 4 * 20 = 80°

Hence, the Largest Angle is 80°

What complex number is represented by the polar coordinates (4, -pi/4)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{z=2\sqrt{2} -2 \sqrt{2}i}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A complex number is defined as z = a + bi. Since the complex number also represents right triangle whenever forms a vector at (a,b). Hence, a = rcosθ and b = rsinθ where r is radius (sometimes is written as |z|).

Substitute a = rcosθ and b = rsinθ in which the equation be z = rcosθ + irsinθ.

Factor r-term and we finally have z = r(cosθ + isinθ). How fortunately, the polar coordinate is defined as (r, θ) coordinate and therefore we can say that r = 4 and θ = -π/4. Substitute the values in the equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{z=4[\cos (-\frac{\pi}{4}) + i\sin (-\frac{\pi}{4})]}[/tex]

Evaluate the values. Keep in mind that both cos(-π/4) is cos(-45°) which is √2/2 and sin(-π/4) is sin(-45°) which is -√2/2 as accorded to unit circle.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{z=4\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}i \right)}\\\\\displaystyle \large{z=2\sqrt{2} -2 \sqrt{2}i}[/tex]

Hence, the complex number that has polar coordinate of (4,-45°) is [tex]\displaystyle \large{z=2\sqrt{2} -2 \sqrt{2}i}[/tex]

b) b = 30

Step-by-Step Solution:

a) Solve the following …

A = 1/2ab
A = a/2b
A * 2 = ab
2A = ab
2A/a = b
=> b = 2A/a

b) Evaluate b when A = 18 and …

=> b = 2A/a
=> A = 18
=> a = 6/5

Substitute the Values in the Equation :-

b = 2A/a
b = 2(18)/(6/5)
b = 36 ÷ 6/5
b = 36 * 5/6
b = 180/6
=> b = 30

Hence, b = 30 when A = 18 and a = 6/5

Because the medication concentration C(t) is a function of time (t), the domain is the possible values t can take.

t, cannot take negative values (i.e. it is not possible to have a negative time).

The least possible value of t is 0

So, the domain of the function based on the context is: t ≥ 0
