Lin is playing hand ball and wants the ball
to bounce off wall CB and land at D.
Where on the wall should she aim if she's
standing at point A?
Lin should aim the ball at 7.8 feet away from point B
From the question (see attachment), we have the following equivalent ratios:
[tex]AB : BE = DC :CE[/tex]
This is so because triangles ABE and DCE are similar triangles.
Such that:
[tex]BE + CE = 20[/tex]
[tex]AB = 16[/tex]
[tex]DC = 16 + 9 = 25[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]AB : BE = DC :CE[/tex]
[tex]16 : BE = 25: CE[/tex]
Make CE the subject in [tex]BE + CE = 20[/tex]
[tex]CE=20 - BE[/tex]
Substitute 20 - BE for CE in [tex]16 : BE = 25: CE[/tex]
[tex]16 : BE = 25: 20 - BE[/tex]
Express as ratio
[tex]\frac{16 }{ BE} = \frac{25}{ 20 - BE}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]16(20 - BE) = 25BE[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]320 - 16BE = 25BE[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]25BE + 16BE = 320[/tex]
[tex]41BE = 320[/tex]
Divide both sides by 41
[tex]BE = 7.8[/tex]
Hence, she should aim at 7.8 feet away from point B

In the figure below, what is the measure of
70deg
125deg
55deg
180deg
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
since the left and right sides are equal length the left and right angles are 55 degrees. and since a triangle adds up to 180 degrees
180-55-55 = 70
I think you can also use sin cos tan to solve this but this way is much easier

Answer:
you need to show the number is prime
Step-by-step explanation:
To show 2^7 -1 is prime, you have to show it is not divisible by any prime less than its square root. That root is approximately 2^(7/2) = 2^3×√2 ≈ 11.3.
The primes of in that range are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11. The prime we're testing is ...
2^7 -1 = 128 -1 = 127
The sum of digits is 10, which is not a multiple of 3: not divisible by 3.
The units digit is 7, not 0 or 5: not divisible by 5.
The test for divisibility by 7 is to subtract twice the units digit from the rest of the number: 12 -2(7) = -2. This is not 0 or a multiple of 7, so 127 is not divisible by 7.
We know that 11² = 121, so 127 is not divisible by 11.
All of the tests for primality pass, so 2^7 -1 is a Mersenne prime.
_____
Additional comment
It is known that 2^n -1 being prime requires n to be prime. (The converse is not true: 2^11 -1 = 2047 = 23×89 is not prime.) The discovery of Mersenne primes is an ongoing process involving thousands of computers around the world. Only about 50 such primes are known.
You will notice that we have made use of some divisibility rules in order to simplify the process of dividing by small numbers. These can be helpful in many situations, so can be useful to learn.

find the slope of the line 2y+5x=3
Answer:
-5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you want to get the equation into the Y=mx+b formula, and my m will be the slope of the line.
So in our case, we get Y= -5/2x+3/2 so my slope is -5/2

[tex] \sf \angle M \cong \angle V \: \: or \: \: \angle N \cong\angle U[/tex]Answer: Choice A
Explanation:
The shorthand AAS stands for "angle angle side". The diagram shows we have a pair of congruent angles, which takes care of one "A" of "AAS". So we need info about another pair of angles to take care of that other "A".
One possible pair is angle M and angle V, or we could go for angle N and angle U. Whichever option you go for, the tickmarked sides are not between the angles mentioned. If the side was between the angles, then we'd have to use ASA which is slightly different from AAS. The order matters.

What is the area of a room that is 3 3/4 yards long by 3 1/3 yards wide?
Answer:
Depends on what your question asks for (in mixed or improper form) your answer would be: 150/12 yards or 12 1/2 yards
brainliest please?<3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area, first convert the mixed numbers to improper form:
3 3/4 = 15/4 & 3 1/3 = 10/3
Now multiply them together:
15/4 x 10/3
= 150/12
Answer: 12.5

Darren got 39 out of the 52 questions correct on a test. What percent of the questions did he get correct?
Answer:
75%
Step-by-step explanation:
Here are step-by-step instructions showing you how we calculated 39 out of 52 as a percentage:
The first step is to divide 39 by 52 to get the answer in decimal form:
39 / 52 = 0.7500
Then, we multiplied the answer from the first step by one hundred to get the answer as a percentage:
0.7500 * 100 = 75.00%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this inequality the same way you would solve an equation: by isolating x.
Simply subtract 6 from both sides to get -4x > 4. Then merely divide both sides by -4 to get x < -1. (Notice that when dividing by a negative number, you must flip the sign of the inequality.)
