Answer:

DF=201

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that segment DE=4x+10, segment EF=2x-1 and DF=9x-15

From the given information, we can set an equation as:

DF=DE+EF

9x-15=4x+10+2x-1

Combine like terms:

9x-15=6x+9

9x-15+15=6x+9+15

9x=6x+24

9x-6x=6x-6x+24

3x=24

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{24}{3}

x=24

DF=9x-15

DF=9(24)-15

DF=216-15

DF=201

Therefore, DF equals 201 units.

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If DE = 4x+10,EF =2X -1, and DF= 9x - 15 find DF

(de + ef ) - df = 2e || 2e/2 = e || ed - e = d || ef - e = f || f + d =  df

de + ef = 6x + 11 || (6x +11) - df = -3x -6 || 2e/2 = -3x/2 - 3  || (-3x/2 - 3) - de = x/2 + 7||  (- 3x/2 - 3) - ef = -x/2 - 1|| d + f = 6

Dan bought a new computer for $900. Each year, the value of the computer decreased by 25% of the previous year’s value. At this
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

$120.14

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is an example of a compound percentage decrease.

To work this out you would first need to convert the percentage of 25 into a decimal. You can do this by dividing the percentage of 25 by 100, this gives you 0.25. This is because percentages are out of 100.

The next step is to minus 0.25 from 1, this gives you 0.75. This is because we are working out the percentage decrease.

The final step is to multiply the amount of 900 by 0.75 to the power of 7, this gives you $120.14.

1) Divide 25 by 100.

25/100=0.25

2) Minus 0.25 from 1.

1-025=0.75

3) Multiply 900 by 0.75 to the power of 7.

900*0.75^7=120.14

Show how to make a ten to solve 13-7. Write the number sentence.
VARVARA [1.3K]
-7 + 3 + 10 = -4 + 10 = 10 - 4 = 6. 

To turn 13 into 10, you need to break it up into 10 + 3, which does not change the value of 13. Then, you add 3 to -7, which results in -4. Next, you add -4 to 10 (or rather, subtract 4 from 10), which results in 6.

A blimp is 1500 meters high in the air and measures the angles of depression to two stadiums to the west of the blimp. If those
grigory [225]
Let stadium 1 be the one on the left and stadium 2 the one on the right.

Angle above stadium 1 is 72.9° and the angle above stadium 2 is 34.1° using the angle property of alternate angles(because both the ground and the dotted line are parallel).

For the next part we need to use the trigonometric function of tangent.

As tan x = opposite / adjacent,
Tan 72.9°=1500/ adjacent ( the ground from O to stadium 1)

Therefore the adjacent is 1500/tan 72.9°= 461.46 m( to 5 s.f.)

Same for the next angle,
Tan 34.1°=1500/ adjacent ( the ground from O to stadium 2)

Therefore, the adjacent is 1500/tan 34.1° = 2215.49 m (to 5 s.f.)

Thus, the distance between both stadiums is 2215.49-461.46= 1754.03 m

Correcting the answer to whole number gives you 1754 m which is the option C.
