The length of BC is equivalent to 12 units

<h3>Midpoint of a line</h3>

If the midpoint if Ac is B, then the expressions below are true;

AB+BC = AC

AB = BC

Given the following parameters

AB = x + 6, and

AC = 5x - 6

BC = x + 6

Substitute

x+6+x+6 = 5x - 6

2x+12 = 5x - 6

2x-5x = -6-12

-3x = -18

x = 6

Determine the measure of BC

BC = x + 6

BC= 6 + 6

BC = 12units

Hence the length of BC is equivalent to 12 units

Dima020 [189]
Slope is difference in y over difference in x:

m = ( -8 - -3) / (-1 - -5) = (-5)/(4) = -5/4

The slope is -5/4.

Using the given information, solve for X. What is the length of AB? What is the length of RS?
mariarad [96]

Hello!!

The answer would be: x=6; midsegment AB= 8; midsegment RS= 16

which would also look like- x=6;AB=8;RS=16

Everyone have a great day ♡ ♡ ♡!!!!

Multiply (3x – 5y)(2x + 3y)
Ghella [55]

Answer:

6x² - xy - 15y²

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply these two binomials together, we can use FOIL. FOIL stands for:

First: Multiply the first terms of the binomials together.

Outer: Multiply the first term of the first binomial by the second term of the second binomial.

Inner: Multiply the second term of the first binomial by the first term of the second binomial.

Last: Multiply the second (last) terms of the two binomials together.

(3x - 5y)(2x + 3y) = (3x)(2x) + (3x)(3y) + (-5y)(2x) + (-5y)(3y)

= 6x² + 9xy - 10xy - 15y²

= 6x² - xy - 15y²

I hope you find my answer helpful.
