Find x if AB = 9, BC = 2x - 5, and AC = x + 9

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fact that line segments AB and BC are parts of the whole line segment AC, we can write the following equation:

AB + BC = AC

Now, using the given values, we can substitute in for the equation and solve for x:

AB + BC = AC

9 + 2x - 5 = x + 9

2x + 4 = x + 9

x = 5

Thus, we have found that for these sets of equations for these line segments, our value for x should be 5.

Cheers.

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

AB + BC = AC

9+ 2x-5 = x+9

Combine like terms

2x+4 = x+9

Subtract x from each side

2x+4-x = x+9-x

x+4 = 9

Subtract 4 from each side

x+4-4 = 9-4

x=5

IgorC [24]
As we know Conversion from fahrenheit to celsius is
F - 32 =  \frac{9C}{5}

We can write it also as

F =  \frac{9C}{5}+32

F as y and C as x then we can write it as

y =  \frac{9x}{5} + 32

Change the fraction to a decimal with division 1/10
Viktor [21]

Answer: 0.1

Step-by-step explanation: you only need to add zero to the first value,

for example if you have 1/10, you add zero, getting the next equation

10/10 if you add a zero to value you can add a zero to the result getting the following result

10/10=0. in this point both values are divisible

and 10 between 10 is equal to 1

as you finish add zeros you can add a point and after the 1 getting this result

1/10 = 0.1

Describe the graph of the function. y = |x – 4| – 7
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:

(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,

so that now you have to plot 2 functions!

For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:

|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x

Then:

for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3

for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:

y= x-4-7 = x-11,

Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11

In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:

x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3

And just x=5 for y=x-11

The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:

x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7

x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!

abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0
