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

If the domain of the square root function f(x) is x&lt;7, which statement must be true?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The x-term inside the radical has a negative coefficient

Step-by-step explanation:

The argument of a square root should be ALWAYS greater or equal to zero. If the domain of the function is x<7, rearranging, we have: 0<x-7

Therefore the argument is: x-7, and the function is: y = √(x-7)

The statement "The x-term inside the radical has a negative coefficient" is the right answer.
