Answer:

1) AC = 32

2) FG = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In Δ ACE

∵ D is the mid-point of EC

∵ F is the mid-point of AE

∴ FD // AC and FD = 1/2 AC

∵ FD = 16

∴ AC = 16 × 2 = 32

2) In the two triangles DEF and DGF

∵ m∠ DEF = m∠DGF = 90°

∵ m∠EDF = m∠GDF ⇒ DF bisects angle EDG

∵ DF is a common side

∴ The two triangles are congruent

∴ EF = GF

∵ EF = n + 9

∵ GF = 4n - 6

∴ 4n - 6 = n + 9 ⇒ 4n - n = 9 + 6

∴ 3n = 15 ⇒ ∴ n = 15 ÷ 3

∴ n = 5

∴ FG = 4(5) - 6 = 20 - 6 = 14

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

6 and 18 are common because 6x3=18. Remember the rule to multiply all numbers by 3. So multiply 10 by 3 and you will get 30. The total number of square tiles needed is 30 tiles. If you are putting it into a ratio it would be 18:30.

The equation of a line given two points needs to be found. Samuel claims that slope-intercept form will generate the equation an
finlep [7]
Helena is correct in saying that the point-slope form will generate the equation. The point-slope form is written as:


y-y₁ = m(x-x₁), where,
m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) is the slope of the line
(x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) are the coordinates of the two points


On the other hand, the slope-intercept form is written as:


y = mx + b, where,
m is the slope of the line
b is the y-intercept


In this case, since only two points were given, the y-intercept of the line is not readily known. Thus, it is only through the point-slope form that the equation of the line can be determined. This is because it only requires the substitution of the x and y-coordinates of the points in the equation. 
The equation of a line given two points needs to be found. Samuel claims that slope-intercept form will generate the equation and Helena claims that point-slope form will find the equation. Who is correct? Explain your reason by describing both forms.

Ahmad just put some money into a cd that pays 11.3% interest compounded semiannually according to the rule of 72 in approximatel
lilavasa [31]
The "rule of 72" says that the doubling time in years is approximately 72 divided by the interest rate in percent. To make the money grow by a factor of 4 requires that it double twice, so will take twice as long as the period to double once.
  2×72/11.3 ≈ 12.7 . . . . years

_____
The "rule of 72" is an approximation. The actual quadrupling time for this interest rate and compounding is about 12.6 years. (The actual product of doubling time and nominal interest rate is about 71.25.)
