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

The label on the car's antifreeze container claims to protect the car between −30°C and 130°C. To covert Celsius temperature to
jonny [76]

Answer:

-22°F < x < 266°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states the incorrect formula to convert the Celsius temperature (C) into the Fahrenheit temperature (F). The correct one is given by:

F = 9C/5 + 32.

The given temperature inequality in Celsius is:

-30°C < x < 130°C; where x is any number that satisfies the inequality.

To convert it into Fahrenheit, simply plug in the values in the above formula.

Lower Limit:

F = 9(-30)/5 + 32.

F = -54 + 32.

F = -22°F.

Upper Limit:

F = 9(130)/5 + 32.

F = 234 + 32.

F = 266°F.

Therefore, the inequality will be -22°F < x < 266°F!!!
