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

Find the sum
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Numerator = 2(b^2+a^2)    or equivalently 2b^2+2a^2

Denominator = (b+a)^2*(b-a), or equivalently b^3+ab^2-a^2b0-a^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

S = 2b/(b+a)^2 + 2a/(b^2-a^2)   factor denominator

= 2b/(b+a)^2 + 2a/((b+a)(b-a))     factor denominators

= 1/(b+a) ( 2b/(b+a) + 2a/(b-a))    find common denominator

= 1/(b+a) ((2b*(b-a) + 2a*(b+a))/((b+a)(b-a))   expand

= 1/(b+a)(2b^2-2ab+2ab+2a^2)/((b+a)(b-a))  simplify & factor

= 2/(b+a)(b^2+a^2)/((b+a)(b-a))  simplify & rearrange

= 2(b^2+a^2)/((b+a)^2(b-a))

Numerator = 2(b^2+a^2)    or equivalently 2b^2+2a^2

Denominator = (b+a)^2*(b-a), or equivalently b^3+ab^2-a^2b0-a^3

Svetach [21]

Answer:

y = 1/5x - 7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/5x + b

-1 = 1/5(2) + b

-1 = 2/5 + b

-7/5 = b
