Answer:

$EF=9\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Trapezoid Mid-segment Theorem states that: A line connecting the midpoints of the two legs of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases, and its length is equal to half the sum of lengths of the bases

so In this problem

$EF=\frac{1}{2}[AD+BC]$

substitute the given values

$x=\frac{1}{2}[(x-6)+(2x-3)]$

$x=\frac{1}{2}[3x-9]$

$2x=(3x-9)\\3x-2x=9\\x=9$

$AD=x-6=9-6=3\ units$

$EF=x=9\ units$

$BC=2x-3=2(9)-3=15\ units$

Devon wants to write an equation for a line that passes through 2 of the data points he has collected. The points are (8, 5) and

melamori03 [73]

Use slope formula to find slope −9−5−/12−8=−14/−20=7/10 7/10 = m = slope
y= mx + b
y= (7/10)x + b
(8,5)
(5) = (7/10)(8) + b
b = -3/5

So.... y=(7/10)x −35

 multiply by 10

10y=7x−6 --> -7x + 10y = -6
--> 7x - 10y = 6
So, if 7x - 10y = 3 a good model?

Write an equation for the following word problem.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Option 1 or 16 + h = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Tyrone ate 16 hamburgers today.

Tyrone had 24 hamburgers.

Hamburger = h.

We want to find how much Tyrone had left so:

h = 24 - 16

OR (we can move 16 to the other side)

h + 16 = 24

Option 1 is the answer

Answer:

$x^4 + 4x^3 + 6x^2 + 7x + 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to multiply the given polynomials.

$(x^ 2 + 3x + 1) \times (x^2 + x + 2)$

Multiply each term of the first polynomial to each term of the second polynomial.

$x^ 2 \times (x^2 + x + 2) = x^4 + x^3 + 2x^2$

$3x \times (x^2 + x + 2) = 3x^3 + 3x^2 + 6x$

$1 \times (x^2 + x + 2) = x^2 + x + 2$

Add the results

$(x^4 + x^3 + 2x^2) + (3x^3 + 3x^2 + 6x) + ( x^2 + x + 2)$

Combine the like terms

$x^4 + 4x^3 + 6x^2 + 7x + 2$

The answer is written in descending powers of x.

Consider the following two loans for P=$12,000.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Simple interest-?

Step-by-step explanation:

P= 12000

T=5yrs

R=5%

Now,

Simple interest - PTR/100

= 12000*5*5/100

= $3000

Again,

P=12000

T=3yrs

R=8%

Now,

Simple interest - PTR/100

= 12000*3*8/100

= $2880

Hope this helps.
