OpenStudy (anonymous):

the triangle CFG and triangle CDE are similar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then the ratio of the sides are equal ie \[\frac{ 2x+3 }{5x+4 }=\frac{ 3x+0.8 }{ CD }\] solve for CD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did the same thing but i just need the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[CD=\frac{ (3x+0.8)(5x+4) }{ 2x+3 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a-3.4 b-6.8 c-13.6 d-14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also 5x+4=2(2x+3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=2 so CD=13.6
