B FB is the midpoint of Ac, and AC=8x-20 find BC 3x-1

Mathematics
1 answer:
loris [4]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

AC=52

BC=26

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a line Line Segment AC and B is the midpoint of AC.

Given that BC=3x-1 and AC=8x-20

Hence AC = 2 x BC

8x-20=2(3x-1)

8x-20=6x-2

8x-6x=20-2

2x=18

x=9

Hence

AC= 8x-20

= 8(9)-20

= 72-20

= 52

Also

2BC= AC

BC=26

If Keira spends $45 on petrol, 1/ 9 of the money on other items and 1 /5 of the money on clothes. How much money does she spend
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The money Keira spent on food is $31.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money spent by Keira = $45

Things Keira spent money on:

1. Clothing

2. Food

3. Other items

Money spent on Clothing = 1/5 of total money

= 1/5 x $45

Money spent on Clothing = $9

Money spent on Other Items = 1/9 of total money

= 1/9 x $45

Money spent on Other Items = $5

Money spent of on Food = Money spent - (Money spent on clothing + other items)

Money spent on food = 45 - (9+5)

= 45 - 14

Money spent on food = $31

What is true about the graphs of y = x^2 – 2 and y = x^2 + 2?
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Graphs behave differently at various x-inter cepts. Sometimes the graph will cross over the x-axis at an intercept. Other times the graph will touch the x-axis and bounce off.

Suppose, for example, we graph the function. f(x) = (x+3)(x - 2)²(x+1)³.

Notice in the figure below that the behavior of the function at each of the x-intercepts is different.

A 25-foot ladder is leaned against a wall. If the base of the ladder is 7 feet from the wall, how high up the wall will the ladd
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

24ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem!!

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

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

In this case, the ladder is c, and the base is b.

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

Plug the numbers in the formula.

a^2 + 7^2 = 25^2

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

Solve.

a^2 + 49 = 625

a^2 -49 = 625 - 49

a^2 = 576

\sqrt{a^2} = \sqrt{576}

a = 24
