What is ae ?

enter your answer in the box.

Question says to find AE based on given information in the picture.

We see that AB and CD are parallel lines

AD acts as transversal on AB and CD

then

∠CDE= ∠BAE {alternate interior angles}

similarly

∠DCE= ∠ABE {alternate interior angles}

∠CED= ∠BEA {opposite angles}

so by AAA property of triangles.

Triangle CDE and triangle BAE are similar.

By properties of similar triangles, we know that ratio of corresponding sides is always equal so we can write:

10(x+6)=8(2x+6)

10x+60=16x+48

10x-16x=48-60

-6x=-12

x=2

We have to find AE which is 2x+6

AE= 2x+6 = 2*2+6= 4+6 = 10

Hence final answer is AE = 10.

step-by-step explanation:

i found the life tables for the year 2012. 

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:  

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001420

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001448

white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001005

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001037

white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001372

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001399

non hispanic white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001083

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001116

non hispanic white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001477

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001503

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497

x= cost per bracelet

number of bracelets * x + shipping charge = total cost

so

9x+9=72
