Answer

Find out the value of x.

To prove

Definition of mid- segment

It is a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle.

It is always parallel to the third side, and the length of the midsegment is half the length of the third side.

As shown in the triangle given below.

As given

DE = 5x and BC = 11x – 15

Thus

DE = \frac{BC}{2}

5x = \frac{11x-15}{2}

5x\times 2 = 11x-15

10x = 11x-15

15 = 11x - 10x

15 = x

Therefore the value of x is 15 .

Graph the equation to solve the system. y=2x+7 1/2y=x+7/2
vlabodo [156]

Given equation is y=2x+7 and \frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}

Let's simplify the 2nd equation \frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2} before we can start graph so that calculation will be easy

\frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out fractions

2*\frac{1}{2}y=2*x+2*\frac{7}{2}

y=2x+7

which is exactly same as the first equatoin so graph of both will be exactly same and solution will be infinitely many solutions.

y=2x+7 has y-intercept 7 so first point will be (0,7). Slope is 2 so rise 2 unit up then 1 right and graph the new point.

What is the sum of numbers as a product of their GCF 45+60
Eduardwww [97]
Find the prime factorization

45=3*3*5
60=2*2*3*5
GCF=3*5=15

45=3*15
60=4*15

remember
ab+ac=a(b+c) so
45+60=15(3)+15(4)=15(3+4)=15(7)=105
