The value of x is 8 from the diagram given.

<h3>How do you calculate the sides of similar triangles?</h3>

The corresponding sides of a similar triangle are said to be in proportion if and only if the corresponding angle are also equal.

To calculate the side of line x (|x|), we have to determine the ratios of the corresponding sides as:

\mathbf{\dfrac{BC}{DC} = \dfrac{AC}{EC}}

\mathbf{\dfrac{x}{10} = \dfrac{12}{15}}

x = 120/15

x = 8

Therefore, we can conclude that the value of x is 8.

M(-5,9) and N(-2,7)<br> P(-3,-7) and Q(3,-5
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

M=(4,112)=(4,5.5) A

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint for two points P=(px,py) and Q=(qx,qy) is M=(px+qx2,py+qy2).

We have that px=3, py=2, qx=5, qy=9.

Thus, M=(3+52,2+92)=(4,112).

What is the equation of the line that passes through point (4, 12) and has a y-intercept of —2?
zmey [24]

Answer:

<h2>y = 3.5x - 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

<h3>y = mx + b</h3>

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have y-intercept b = -2. Substitute:

<h3>y = mx - 2</h3>

We have the point (4, 12) → x = 4, y = 12. Put them in the equation:

12 = 4m - 2         <em>add 2 to both sides</em>

14 = 4m       <em>divide both sides by 4</em>

14/4 = m → m = 3.5

A pipe is leaking at the rate of 32 fluid ounces per minute. Use dimensional analysis to find out how many gallons the pipe is l
lianna [129]

well first think about it, 60 min in an hour, so 32 fluid ounces times 60 = 1920 fluid ounces, from there you can convert fluid ounces to practically anything, for instance, 1920 fluid ounces = 24 cups.
