Find CE
i’ll mark brainliest someone just pls help lol

CE = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ CBD and Δ CAE are similar thus ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

= , substitute values

= , then

= ( cross- multiply )

(x - 5)(2x + 17) = 14(x + 1) ← distribute both sides

2x² + 7x - 85 = 14x + 14 ( subtract 14x + 14 from both sides )

2x² - 7x - 99 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 9)(2x + 11) = 0 ← in factored form

quate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

2x + 11 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 11 ⇒ x = -

but x > 0 , thus x = 9

Hence

CE = 2x + 17 = 2(9) + 17 = 18 + 17 = 35

  q

step-by-step explanation:

each line from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side is called a median. the point where the medians intersect, point q, is the centroid.

the centroid of δabc is point q.

x = 25/2304
