4(4x)+(x)
= 16x+x
Combine like terms
16x+x
(16x+x)
= 17x
x=17
I hope that's help ! Good night .
Because the tree is the halfway point, the building would be twice as tall:
The building is 38 x 2 = 76 feet tall.
Multiply (2.6 x 10^-7) by 15 to get
3.9 x 10^-6
A point that bisects a segment would be its midpoint. This is a case where the vocabulary (bisect as opposed to midpoint) makes it harder.
To find the midpoint, we use the midpoint formula. The midpoint formula is:
midpoint = (x₁ + x₂/2, y₁ + y/2). To find it, you add the x coordinates and then divide them by 2. Repeat for the y coordinates.
x: (-2 + 6)/2 = 4/2 = 2
y: (5 +1)/2 = 6/2 = 3
Thus the point B bisecting AC is at (2, 3).
