Hello!
Since D is the midpoint and the two equations are and both sides of point D the equations equal each other
9x - 7 = 3x + 17
Now you solve it algebraically
Add 7 to both sides
9x = 3x + 24
Subtract 3x from both sides
6x = 24
Divide both sides by 6
x = 4
Now we put this into both equations and add them
9(4) - 7 = 29
3(4) + 17 = 29
29 + 29 = 58
The answer is 58 units
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x<8 or x>13
Step-by-step explanation:
x-5 < 3
x < 3 + 5
x <8
OR
x – 5 > 8
x > 8 +5
x >13
combining the two, the combined answer for x is
x<8 or x>13
If he ate 6/8 of the pizza, that means 2/8 is left.
2/8 simplify it, by dividing it by 2 and your answer is...
IT'S 1/4
AB = sqrt(10^2 - 4^2) = sqrt(100 - 16) = sqrt(84) = sqrt(4 x 21) = 2sqrt(21) = 2 radical 21.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let the speed of the boat be x
- Speed against the current in the river is x - 2
<u>Time in the river:</u>
<u>Time in the lake:</u>
<u>The difference:</u>
Solve for x to find the speed of the boat
<u>Multiply both sides by x(x - 2) to clear the fraction:</u>
- 6x = 15(x - 2) - x(x - 2)
- 6x = 15x - 30 - x² + 2x
- x² - 11x + 30 = 0
- (x - 5)(x - 6) =0
- x -5 = 0, x - 6 = 0
- x = 5 km/h, x = 6 km/h
