Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line segment AC = 28, that means line segment AB and line segment BC must add up to 28:

x - 10 + x + 2 = 28

2x - 8 = 28

2x = 36

x = 18

Now we plug in <em>x</em> into segment BC's equation to find length of BC:

BC = x + 2

BC = 18 + 2

BC = 20

Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

28 = x-10 + x+2

Combine like terms

28 = 2x -8

Add 8 to each side

28+8 = 2x-8+8

36 = 2x

Divide by 2

36/2 = 2x/2

18 =x

We want to find BC

BC = x+2

     =18+2

     =20

PLZ HELP
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest power of x here is 3, so this is a third degree polynomial.  Since the coefficient of the highest power term is +, we know that the graph approximates that of the parent function y = x^3, and that this graph begins in Quadrant III, enters Quadrant I and continues to move upward in Quadrant I.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

  • d = 10(1.03^t)
  • 13 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For t in weeks, a reasonable exponential function describing the dept (d) might be ...

  d = 10(1.03^t)

Then, after 8 weeks, the depth is predicted to be ...

  d = 10(1.03^8) ≈ 12.67 ft ≈ 13 ft
