The value of <u>ML = 3</u>, using the mid-point theorem of triangles.

According to the midpoint theorem, "the line segment of a triangle crossing the midpoints of two sides of the triangle is said to be parallel to its third side and also half the length of the third side."

In the question, we are given that triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle, and L, M, and N are the midpoints of BC, AB, and CA respectively.

Thus, by the midpoint theorem, we can say that:

  • MN || BC, and MN = (1/2)BC,
  • ML || AC, and ML = (1/2)AC, and
  • NL || AB, and NL = (1/2)AB.

Assuming AB = BC = AC = x units, we get:

  • MN = (1/2)BC = x/2,
  • ML = (1/2)AC = x/2, and
  • NL = (1/2)AB = x/2.


Thus, the triangle LMN is an equilateral triangle.

Thus, MN = ML = NL.

Given MN = 3, we can write the value of ML = 3.

Thus, the value of <u>ML = 3</u>, using the mid-point theorem of triangles.

Critical points of x+5/x+2&gt;0
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

{-5, -2}

Step-by-step explanation:

In a case like this please use parentheses to remove ambiguities.  If I were to take your "x+5/x+2" literally, I'd have to write x             plus 5/x           plus 2.

I suspect that you actually meant (x + 5) / (x + 2), and will start with that.

First of all, this function is not defined at x = -5 or at x = -2.  Thus, -5 and -2 are critical points.  

Secondly, there may be one or more critical points beyond this.  To find out, we have to differentiate (x+5)/(x+2):

           (x + 2)(1) - (x + 5)(1)

f '(x) = ------------------------------

                  (x + 2)

Here it's clear that x cannot = -2, which would cause division by zero.

Thus, our critical values are {-5, -2}.

If we take the equation and multiply out the left side, we get....

x^{2} + 2xk + k^{2} = x^{2} + x +k^{2}

The x^2 and k^2 cancel out on both sides leaving us with this...

2kx = x

If we divide both sides by 2x to isolate k, k ends up = 1/2

Part A: x = -5/4, 3 || (-5/4, 0) (3, 0)

To find the x-intercepts, we need to know where y is equal to 0. So, we will set the function equal to 0 and solve for x.

4x^2 - 7x - 15 = 0

4 x 15 = 60 || -12 x 5 = 60 || -12 + 5 = -7

4x^2 - 12x + 5x - 15 = 0

4x(x - 3) + 5(x - 3) = 0

(4x + 5)(x - 3) = 0

4x + 5 = 0

x = -5/4

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

Part B: minimum, (7/8, -289/16)

The vertex of the graph will be a minimum. This is because the parabola is positive, meaning that it opens to the top.

To find the coordinates of the parabola, we start with the x-coordinate. The x-coordinate can be found using the equation -b/2a.

b = -7

a = 4

x = -(-7) / 2(4) = 7/8

Now that we know the x-value, we can plug it into the function and solve for the y-value.

y = 4(7/8)^2 - 7(7/8) - 15

y = 4(49/64) - 49/8 - 15

y = 196/64 - 392/64 - 960/64

y = -1156/64 = -289/16 = -18 1/16

Part C:

First, start by graphing the vertex. Then, use the x-intercepts and graph those. At this point we should have three points in a sort of triangle shape. If we did it right, each of the x-values will be an equal distance from the vertex. After we have those points graphed, it is time to draw in the parabola. Knowing that the parabola is positive, we draw in a U shape that passes through each of the three points and opens toward the top of the coordinate grid.

Hope this helps!

What values of a and b would make the equation shown have infinitely many solutions? 3x=ax+b
Wittaler [7]
Infinitely many solutions means that you have the same thing on both sides of the equation no matter what value of x you plug in, right?

We just need both sides to be 3x then, correct?

If a were equal to 3 and b were equal to 0, we'd have

3x = (3)x + 0

Which is essentially 3x = 3x

So that means a = 3 and b = 0 must work!
Let's say x = 5

3(5) = 3(5) + 0

15 = 15 + 0

15 = 15

That means that a = 3 and b = 0 is your final answer :)

I WILL GIVE 20 POINTS TO THOSE WHO ANSWER THIS QUESTION RIGHT NOOOO SCAMS PLEASE AND PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THAT IS THE ANSWER
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1 - 60

2 - 120

3 - 60

4 - 120

5 - 60

6 - 120

7 - 60

8 - 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Via supplementary angles, you can conclude that angle 5 is 60. Because of vertical angles, angle 8 is 120 and angle 7 is 60. Because of alternate exterior angles, angle 1 is congruent to angle 7 and angle 2 is congruent to angle 8, meaning angle 1 is 60 and angle 2 is 120. Because of vertical angles, angle 3 is 60 and angle 4 is 120.
