Answer:

The correct option is E. 8

The value of h is 8 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD

AC = 20

DC = 4

∴ AD = AC - DC=20-4=16

To Find:

h = ?

Solution:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD      ................Given

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.

\frac{BD}{CD} =\frac{AD}{BD} =\frac{BA}{CB}\ \textrm{corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion}\\  

On substituting the given values we get

\dfrac{BD}{CD} =\dfrac{AD}{BD}

\dfrac{h}{4} =\dfrac{16}{h}\\\therefore h^{2}=64\\\therefore h=8\ unit

The value of h is 8 unit.

There are 14 dogs in a particular class at a dog show. Blue, red, yellow, and white ribbons will be awarded to the first through
stira [4]
There are 14 possibilities for first place.
There are 13 possibilities for second place, since a dog can't get both first and second place.
There are 12 possibilities for third place, since a dog can't get both first, second, and third place.
There are 11 possibilities for fourth place, since a dog can't get both first, second, third, and fourth place.

Multiply them together and get 24024 possibilities.

Hope this helps!

Relative to the graph of y=3sinx what is the shift of the graph of y=3sin(x+pi/3)
DochEvi [55]
The shifts of the sinus function can be described with the formula:
<span>a<span>sin<span>(<span><span>bx</span><span>−c</span></span>)</span></span></span>+<span>d, where
a is the amplitude
b is  the period
c is the phase shift 
d is the vertical shift
So, the graph y=3sinx is phase shifted. The phase shift can be calculated as c/b= pi/3/1=pi/3
So, the function is phase shifted for pi/3.</span>

A mill processes 27 tons of flour in 3 hours. How many tons of flour can the mill process in 8 hours if the rate of production s
Delvig [45]
There are a few ways you can go about solving this question. One way is to use the given information to find how many tons of flour can be processed in one hour. If 27 tons can be processed in 3 hours, we can do 27 divided by 3 to find that 9 tons of flour can be processed per hour. Then, if we want to see how many tons of flour can be processed in 8 hours, we can multiply 9 tons by 8 hours to get a total of 72 tons of flour.

I hope this helps.
