Answer:
17. 6
18. 18 (as shown)
19. 10/3 = 3 1/3
20. 20/3 = 6 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
17. For this, you can subtract the given length GB=12 from the length you found for problem 18, BF=18. Doing that tells you FG = 18-12 = 6, as you have marked on the diagram.
19. As with median BF, the point G divides it into two parts that have the ratio 1:2. The distance from G to D is the shorter of the distances, so you have ...
... GD = (1/3) CD = (1/3)·10 = 10/3
... GD = 3 1/3
20. You can subtract GD from CD to get CG, or you can multiply CD by 2/3. The result is the same either way.
... CG = CD -GD = 10 -3 1/3
... CG = 6 2/3

<em>Comment on centroid and median</em>
The centroid (G) divides each median into parts in the ratio 1:2. Hence the shorter of those parts is half the length of the longer one, or 1/3 the total length of the median.
The longer of the parts is double the length of the shorter one, or 2/3 the total length of the median.
Your marking of median BF seems to show an understanding of these relationships. (Total length: 18; length of parts: 6 and 12.)
4.75 Kilometers, you just divide by 1000
In an isosceles triangle that has exactly two equal sides, the equal sides are called legs and the third side is called the base. The angle included by the legs is called the vertex angle and the angles that have the base as one of their sides are called the base angles.
Answer:
The answer would be 2.7. Am not very sure though
Step-by-step explanation:
So what you do is
for example the unkown number is x and the answer you get is y
12-x=y * -15=-140
-140/-15=9.33 (this is y the answer)
12-x=9.3
12-9.3=2.7
To check your answer
12-2.7=9.3
9.3 * -15=-139.5 if you round it then it would be -140
The speed at which they are moving apart = 475 + 525 = 1000 mi/h
Time = distance / speed
= 6000 / 1000 = 6 hours
The answer is 6 hours.
