In a triangle, the midline joining the midpoints of two sides is parallel to the third side and half as long
2(5x+2) = 3x + 32
10x + 4 = 3x + 32
10x - 3x = 32 - 4
7x = 28
x = 28/7
x = 4
The length of the midsegment = 5x+2 = 5·4 + 2 = 22
Answer:
(1, –5)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is relatively easy to try the offered solutions to see what works.
<u>(1, -5)</u>
3(1) +10(-5) = -47 . . . true
5(1) -7(-5) = 40 . . . true
(1, -5) is the solution
_____
As a check, you can try some of the other choices:
<u>(1, 5)</u>
3(1) +10(5) ≠ -47
<u>(-1, -5)</u>
3(-1) +10(-5) ≠ -47
<u>(-1, 5)</u>
3(-1) +10(5) ≠ -47
None of the other choices works in the first equation, so they're not the solution.
Answer:
x=11 (read below)
Step-by-step explanation:
7 + x = 18
<em>Subtract 7 from both sides</em>
x=11
It's quite simple because if you do something to one side of the equation, you need to do it to the other because otherwise the equation won't be equal. This is how you need to simplify most problems, by taking something from one side and taking from the other as well.
10984 rounded to the nearest thousand is 11,000
Answer: 0.0158
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The data for the United States is that out of 1,000 sampled, 470 indicated yes, they felt political news was reported fairly.
According to the given information we have,
Sample size : n= 1000
Sample proportion:
The standard error for proportion is given by :-
[Rounded to the nearest four decimal places.]
Hence, the standard error for the confidence interval = 0.0158
