Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the CE = 10x + 18 and DE = 7x - 1 and D is the midpoint of CE
⇒ CE = 2 * DE
⇒ 10x + 18 = 2 * (7x - 1)
⇒ 10x + 18 = 14x - 2
⇒ -4x = -20
⇒ x = 5
Now we also know that BC = 9x - 3 and AC = CE = 10x + 18
⇒ AB = AC - BC
⇒ AB = 10x + 18 - (9x - 3)
⇒ AB = x + 21
Substituting the value of x,
⇒ AB = 5 + 21
⇒ AB = 26
Hence, the value of AB is 26 units.
Answer:
<em>m </em>=<em> </em>1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use two points on the line given.
(0 , 2) & (-4 , 0)
You are solving for the slope. The slope formula:
<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (-4 , 0)
(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 2)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
<em>m</em> = (2 - 0)/(0 - (-4))
Simplify:
<em>m</em> = (2)/( 0 - (-4))
<em>m</em> = (2)/(0 + 4)
<em>m</em> = 2/4
Simplify the slope. Divide the common factor 2 from both the numerator and denominator:
<em>m</em> = (2/4)/(2/2) = 1/2
1/2 is your slope.
