Since it's a Trapezoid with its non - parallel sides equal to one another,
[ By forming co - interior angle pair ]
Now, similarly,
Similarly,
If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB=BC. It is also BC=AC-AB
AB = x + 6
AC = 5x - 6
BC = (5x - 6) - (x + 6)
We can kinda use distributive property, like this:
BC = 5x - 6 -x - 6
Combine like terms:
BC = 4x - 12
To verify, we can add AB and BC to see if their sum is equal to AC.
(x + 6) + (4x - 12) = 5x - 6
If we are correct, this equation will be true.
x + 6 + 4x - 12 = 5x - 6
Combine like terms:
6 + 5x - 12 = 5x - 6
5x - 6 = 5x - 6
It's correct!
BC = 4x - 12. Final Answer.
Let me know if you have any questions about this! :)
<h3>Given</h3>
4 hundreds flats; 5 tens rods; 2 ones cubes
<h3>Find</h3>
The number of hundreds flats in each of 2 equal piles
<h3>Solution</h3>
When 4 flats are divided into two equal groups, each group will have ...
... 2 flats
_____
You can imagine doing this the way a card dealer might: first put 1 flat in each of 2 piles, then do the same for the remaining 2 flats. Each pile will end up with 2 flats.

You will have a problem if you continue with the tens rods. There is an odd number of those, so one of them will have to be exchanged for 10 ones cubes.
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m =(-2-7)/(8-0)
m =(-9/8)
slope is -9/8
the y intercept is 7 (0,7)
y = mx +b
y = -9/8 x+7
Answer: y = -9/8x +7
