Find JL if JK = 17 - x, KL = 2x - 7, and K is the midpoint of JL

1 answer:

6 0

I'm assuming that the line is JKL in order of the points from left to right.

JK + KL = JL
(17-x) + (2x-7) = JL
Simplify.
10-x = JL

Chase is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, he made some free throws (worth one point each) and some two poi

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

free throws = 6

2 points shots = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we will have 2 incognitas.

x = number of free throws

y = number of shots of 2 points

x(1) + y(2) = 12

he says he made twice as many free throws as 2 points

x = 2y

2y(1) + y(2) = 12

2y + 2y = 12

4y = 12

y = 12/4

y = 3

x = 2y

x = 2*3

x = 6

free throws = 6

2 points shots = 3

Can 15x-10 be factored

Anna [14]

Yes because removing the common factor is important. There are a few steps, then you can factor by regrouping. Hope this helps.

The degree of the function f(x) = -(x + 1)2(2x - 3)(x + 2)2 is<br> , and its y-intercept is

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Degree = 5

Y intercept = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

our function is given as

$f(x)=-(x+1)^2 \cdot (2x-3) \cdot (x+2)^2$

in the above polynomial our variable is x and it is being multiplied for 5 times. Hence the probable degree for the above polynomial is 5

In order to find the y intercept , we need to put x=0 in f(x) as y intercept is the point at which the function graphically meets y axis and where x = 0

Hence

$f(0)=-(0+1)^2 \cdot (2(0)-3) \cdot (0+2)^2$

$f(0)=-(1)^2 \cdot (0-3) \cdot (2)^2$

$f(0)=-1 \cdot (-3) \cdot 4$

$f(0)=3 \cdot 4$

$f(0)=3 \times 4$

$f(0)=12$

Hence the y intercept is 12 units
