Since J is the midpoint of HK, that means HK is split into two sections HJ and JK that are the same length.
1) You are told that the m<span>easure of segment HJ = 9x-2 and that of segment JK = 4x+13. Since you also know they are equal lengths, you can set these equations equal to each other to find the value of x!
HJ = JK
</span>9x-2 = 4x+13
5x = 15
x = 3
2) Now you know x = 3. Plug that into your given equations for HJ and JK to find the length of each segment (or a shortcut would be to find one of them, and then you also know the other is the same length. I'm doing both, just to make sure I don't make a silly mistake!):
HJ = <span>9x-2
</span>HJ = 9(3) - 2
HJ = 27 - 2
HJ = 25
JK = 4x + 13
JK = 4(3) + 13
JK = 12 + 13
JK = 25
3) Finally, the length of HK is just the length of HJ + JK, or HK = 25 + 25 = 50.

Answer: HJ = 25, JK = 25, HK = 50
Equation for slope=1/3 and y-intercept=-1 is:
y = mx + b
where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
So, equation becomes
y = -1x + 1/3
Now put different values of x in the equation to get corresponding value of y.
x y
0 1/3
1 -2/3
2 -5/3
3 -8/3
-1 4/3
-2 7/3
-3 10/3
very positive about these results
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a₁ = 15
a₂/a₁ = 45/15 = 3
a₃/a₂ = 135/45 = 3

It is a geometric sequence with a common ratio r=3.
Sum of first 12 terms = a₁·(1-r¹²)/(1-r)
= 15·(1-3¹²)/(1-3)
= 15·(-531,441)/(-2)
= 3,985,800
volume of the rectangular prism = base area * height
base area = length * breadth
volume of the rectangular prism = length * breadth * height
volume of the rectangular prism = 5*8*2 = 80 inches ^3
volume of taken up by the eraser = 5.5 inches^3
volume that is not take-up by the eraser = 80-5.5 = 74.5 inches^3
