Having point M as midpoint of segment AB, it only shows that the length of AM is equal to the length MB. Hence, AM = MB

AM = MB
2x + 5 = 5x - 22 ⇒ substitute the values
5 + 22 = 5x - 2x ⇒ combine like terms
27 = 3x ⇒ simplify and divide both sides by 3 to get the value of x
x = 9 ⇒ Answer

Answer:

C. $\frac{5}{4}$

D. $\frac{6}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

C. $2 - \frac{12}{16}$

$= 2 - \frac{3}{4}$

$= \frac{8 - 3}{4}$

$= \frac{5}{4}$

D. $\frac{20}{22} \times \frac{33}{35}$

$= \frac{10}{11} \times \frac{33}{35}$

$= 10 \times \frac{3}{35}$

$= 2 \times \frac{3}{7}$

$= \frac{6}{7}$

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

y = $\sqrt{\frac{x-3}{3} }$

Domain = [3, infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3y^2 + 3

3y^2 = x - 3

y^2 = (x-3)/3

y = $\sqrt{\frac{x-3}{3} }$
