Given, IJ = 3x + 3, HI = 3x - 1, and HJ = 3x + 8.

Since I is a point on line segment HJ, we can write

HJ=HI+IJ\begin{gathered} 3x+8=(3x-1)+(3x+3) \\ 3x+8=6x+2 \\ 8-2=6x-3x \\ 6=3x \\ 2=x \end{gathered}

Put x=2 in HJ=3x+8.

\begin{gathered} HJ=3\times2+8 \\ HJ=6+8 \\ =14 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the numerical length of HJ is 14.

Which represents the solution(s) of the system of equations, y = –x2 + 6x + 16 and y = –4x + 37? Determine the solution set alge
masya89 [10]

Answer: c.(3, 25) and (7, 9)

y = –x^2 + 6x + 16 and y = –4x + 37

Plug in -4x+37 for y in first equation . It becomes

-x^2 + 6x + 16= -4x+37

Combine like terms. add 4x  and subtract 37 on both sides

-x^2 + 10x - 21=0

Divide the whole equation by -1 to remove negative sign from -x^2

x^2 - 10x + 21=0

Now factor the left hand side

(x-7)(x-3) = 0

x-7 =0  and x-3=0

x= 7  and x=3

Now we find out y using y = –4x + 37

when  x= 7 , then y=-4(7) +37 = 9

when x= 3, then y=-4(3) + 37 = 25

We write solution set as (x,y)

(7,9)  and (3,25) is our solution set

Which inequality is true?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

∠6 > ∠3 is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that acute angle is less than 90 degree while obtuse angle is more than 90 degree. By looking at the given angles, we can easily determine which angle is obtuse or acute. then we can decide which angle is bigger to find the answer.

∠10 > ∠7

FALSE;

Because∠10 is acute while ∠7 is obtuse.

------------


∠6 > ∠3

TRUE;

Because∠3 is acute while ∠6 is obtuse.

------------

∠9 > ∠11

FALSE;

Because∠9 is acute while ∠11 is obtuse.

------------


∠8 > ∠11

FALSE;

Because∠8 is acute while ∠11 is obtuse.

------------

3xsquare-9x-30=0<br> What’s the answer
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

x = - 2 or x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x² - 9x - 30 = 0 ← in standard form

Divide all terms by 3

x² - 3x - 10 = 0

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 10) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 3)

The factors are - 5 and + 2, since

- 5 × 2 = - 10 and - 5 + 2 = - 3, thus

x² - 3x - 10 = 0

(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
