AD = x cm.
BC is the same length as AD.
AB is twice the length of AD.
DC is 4 cm longer than AB.
The perimeter of the trapezium is 38 cm.
Work out the length of AD.
Answers
Perimeter implies the total length of sides of a given figure. Thus the length AD = 4.75 cm.
A plane figure is any type of figure bounded by four straight sides. Examples are square, rectangle, trapezium, rhombus, etc. A trapezium is a type of plane figure which belongs to a family referred to as quadrilaterals.
The perimeter of a given shape is the sum of the length of its boundaries or sides.
Thus the length AD required in the question can be determined by:
AD = x cm
BC = x cm
AB = 2x cm
DC = 4x cm
Perimeter = AD + BC + AB + DC
= x + x + 2x + 4x
Perimeter = 8x
But the perimeter of the trapezium has been given as 38 cm.
Thus,
38 = 8x
x = [tex]\frac{38}{8}[/tex]
= 4.75
Therefore, the length of AD is 4.75 cm.

Answers
Answer:
115°
Step-by-step explanation:
From E to B is 180°.
So when looking at angle ACB we get 65°
The angle ACE is equal to 180° - °65 = 115°
To show this is correct we have to add ACE and ACB and that should equal 180° which is true.
Answer:
115°
Step-by-step explanation:
normally straight lines are 180°
so angle ACF is already 90°
to find E, we need to subtract the 90°and the 65°
here it is: 180-(90+ 65)
= 25°
so finally ACE = 90° + 25°
= 115°

An apple pie uses ____ apples and an apple tart requires____apples.
Answers
Answer:
An apple pie uses 7 apples and an apple tart requires 4 applesStep-by-step explanation:
Apple pie - p, apple tart - t
Set the system as follows:
p + 3t = 1910p + 10t = 110Solve by substitution, p = 19 - 3t:
10(19 - 3t) + 10t = 110190 - 30t + 10t = 11020t = 190 - 11020t = 80t = 4Find the value of p:

Identify a point and two x intercepts to write the x-intercept form equation of each parabola.
Answers
x intercepts are 5 and 7
The third point I used was (6,-2); however, you can use any other point you want as long as it's not one of the x intercepts mentioned.
==========================================================
Explanation:
The x intercepts are 5 and 7, where the parabola crosses the x axis. Because of these roots, the two factors are x-5 and x-7.
We can think of the root x = 5 turning into x-5 = 0 after subtracting 5 from both sides. The same goes for x = 7 turning into x-7 = 0.
Put together, the two factors lead to (x-5)(x-7) and we get the equation y = (x-5)(x-7). Plugging either x = 5 or x = 7 into this equation produces y = 0.
-------------------
Notice that plugging in x = 6 leads to...
y = (x-5)(x-7)
y = (6-5)(6-7)
y = (1)(-1)
y = -1
However, the graph shows that x = 6 should lead to y = -2 instead. To fix this, we can stick a 2 out front like so
y = 2(x-5)(x-7)
y = 2(6-5)(6-7)
y = 2(1)(-1)
y = -2
The error has been fixed. As you can see, we need this third point to help nail down the parabolic equation. You can pick any other x value you want as long as it's not 5 or 7.
-------------------
Let's try another x value. Let's say we pick x = 8
y = 2(x-5)(x-7)
y = 2(8-5)(8-7)
y = 2(3)(1)
y = 6
We see that x = 8 leads to y = 6. This matches what the graph shows that (8,6) is a point on the parabola. I'll let you try other x values.
-------------------
In short, we used the roots 5 and 7 to generate the partial factorization (x-5)(x-7). Then we used a third point (6,-2) to help determine the coefficient out front which was 2.
So after using that point, we go from y = (x-5)(x-7) to y = 2(x-5)(x-7) which is the final answer. This is considered x-intercept form because we can quickly read off the x intercepts from this equation.

Rick buys 3 CDs and 5 video games. The cost of one video game is $12.00 more than the cost of one CD. If Rick spends $164.00, what is the cost of each CD?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
x = price per video game
y = price per CD
164 = 5x + 3y
and then we know
x = y + 12
now we can use this as substitute in the first equation :
164 = 5(y + 12) + 3y = 5y + 60 + 3y = 8y + 60
104 = 8y
y = $13
x = y + 12 = 13 + 12 = $25
so, each CD costs $13.
how do i solve -3x--3+8x-24=6x+7-5x
Answers

[tex]x=7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-3x--3+8x-24=6x+7-5x[/tex]
Two negative signs equate to a positive sign, so we can write [tex]--3[/tex] as just [tex]3[/tex]:
[tex]-3x+3+8x-24=6x+7-5x[/tex]
Add up similar terms:
[tex]5x-21=x+7[/tex]
Add 21 to both sides:
[tex]5x-21+21=x+7+21[/tex]
[tex]5x=x+28[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides:
[tex]5x-x=x+28-x[/tex]
[tex]4x=28[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4:
[tex]\frac{4x}{x} =\frac{28}{4}[/tex]

Find the HCF of 495 and 330
495 = 5 * 3*3*11
330 = 5 * 3 * 2 * 11
HCF = 5 * 3 * 11 = 165
Divide 495 and 330 by 165
495 : 330 = 3 : 2

Answer:
The numbers are : 60 , 62
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two consecutive even numbers be 2x , 2x + 2
2x + 2x + 2 = 122
Combine like terms
4x + 2 = 122
Subtract 2 from both sides
4x = 122 - 2
4x = 120
x = 120/4
x = 30
2x = 2*30 = 60
2x + 2 = 2*30 + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62
