Question 9
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the ray NM is the segment bisector XY
so
NM divides the segment XY into two equal parts
XM = MY
given
XM = 3x+1
MY = 8x-24
so substituting XM = 3x+1 and MY = 8x-24 in the equation
XM = MY
3x+1 = 8x-24
8x-3x = 1+24
5x = 25
divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 25/5
x = 5
so the value of x = 5
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 3x+1 + 8x-24
= 11x - 23
substituting x = 5
= 11(5) - 23
= 55 - 23
= 32
Therefore,
The length of the segment = 32 units
Question 10)
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the line n is the segment bisector XY
so
The line divides the segment XY into two equal parts at M
XM = MY
given
XM = 5x+8
MY = 9x+12
so substituting XM = 5x+8 and MY = 9x+12 in the equation
XM = MY
5x+8 = 9x+12
9x-5x = 8-12
4x = -4
divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -4/4
x = -1
so the value of x = -1
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 5x+8 + 9x+12
= 14x + 20
substituting x = 1
= 14(-1) + 20
= -14+20
= 6
Therefore,
The length of the segment XY = 6 units
8.2/2.87
=2.857143

Hope this helps!
1.)
Old Number:35
New Number:45
Now, subract the new number(45) from the old number. (35)
45-35 is 10. Now divide the old number (35) by 10.
You'll get 3.5. 3.5%, increase is the answer for #1.
2.) Old: s (students)
New: 36,750
Do 100+5 (Addition because we do not know what the old number is.) 100+5 is 105. Move decimal over twice and you get 1.05. Multiply 36,750 by 1.05.
There were 38,587.5 kids last year.
3.)Since the discount is 15% off, do 100-15=85. Now, move the decimal over from the percent, and that makes that .85. Now multiply 50x.85. You get 42.5, or $42.50. Now the coupon is 10%, So subtract 100-10, giving you 90. Now move the decimal over. .90. Multiply 42.5 (or 42.50) by .90. You get 38.25. You do have enough money.
4.) Subtract 100-15, giving you 85. Move decimal over from percent. .85.
Now you would multiply .85 times k. B should be the answer.

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² + 5x = 12
2x² + 5x - 12 = 0
x² + 5x - 24 = 0
factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24. the only pair that adds to 5 is 8 and 3
2x² - 3x + 8x - 12 = 0
split the equation and factor
2x² - 3x = 0 ||| 8x - 12 = 0
x(2x - 3) ||| 4(2x - 3)
therefore the pair is (2x - 3)(x + 4)
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 3/2
or
x + 4 = 0
x = -4
