10/2 = x = 5

Please help Need help
Anettt [7]
This problem can be readily solved if we are familiar with the point-slope form of straight lines:
y-y0=m(x-x0) ...................................(1)
where 
m=slope of line
(x0,y0) is a point through which the line passes.

We know that the line passes through A(3,-6), B(1,2)

All options have a slope of -4, so that should not be a problem.  In fact, if we check the slope=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa), we do find that the slope m=-4.

So we can check which line passes through which point:

a. y+6=-4(x-3)
Rearrange to the form of equation (1) above,
y-(-6)=-4(x-3)  means that line passes through A(3,-6) => ok

b. y-1=-4(x-2) means line passes through (2,1), which is neither A nor B
   ****** this equation is not the line passing through A & B *****

c. y=-4x+6  subtract 2 from both sides (to make the y-coordinate 2)
   y-2 = -4x+4, rearrange
   y-2 = -4(x-1)  
   which means that it passes through B(1,2), so ok

d. y-2=-4(x-1)
   this is the same as the previous equation, so it passes through B(1,2), 
   this equation is ok.

Answer: the equation y-1=-4(x-2) does NOT pass through both A and B.

In triangle XYZ, m∠Z > m∠X + m∠Y. Which must be true about △XYZ?
Solnce55 [7]
Since z is GREATER THAN two angles in the triangle it must be obtuse..
meaning it is GREATER THAN 90 degrees this means that the other two angles cannot equal 90 degrees they have to be less

m∠X + m∠Y < 90°

What is the sum of the interior angles of a nonagon?
SSSSS [86.1K]
To find the sum of the interior angles of a nonagon, divide it up into triangles... There are seven triangles... Because the sum of the angles of each triangle is 180 degrees... We get

7 * 180 = 1260°

So, the sum of the interior angles of a nonagon is 1260 degrees.
