Answer:

By the given diagram,

AM = MB and CN = NB

M and N are the mid points of the sides AB and CB respectively,

Thus, by the mid point theorem,

MN ║ AC,

By the alternative interior angle theorem,

∠BMN ≅ ∠BAC

∠BNM ≅ ∠BCA

Thus, by AA similarity postulate,

ΔBMN ≅ ΔBAC

By the property of similar triangles,

Thus, The length of AC is 18 ft.

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation.<br>x + 2x - 6 = 0

VLD [36.1K]

For this case we must solve the following quadratic equation:

$x ^ 2 + 2x-6 = 0$

Where:

$a = 1\\b = 2\\c = -6$

The solution is given by:

$x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}$

Substituting:

$x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2-4 (1) (- 6)}} {2 (1)}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {4 + 24}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {28}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2 * 7}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm2 \sqrt {7}} {2}\\x = -1 \pm \sqrt {7}$

Thus, we have two roots:

$x_ {1} = - 1+ \sqrt {7}\\x_ {2} = - 1- \sqrt {7}$

ANswer:

$x_ {1} = - 1+ \sqrt {7}\\x_ {2} = - 1- \sqrt {7}$

PLEASE HELP I PUT THE PROBLEM AS A PICTURE PLEASE ANSWER WILL GIVE 30 POINTS SHOW WORK

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf (2^8 * 3^{-5} * 6^0)^{-2 } (\frac{3^{-2}}{2^3} )^4*2^{28}$

Rule of exponents $a^0 = 1$ , $1/a^m = a^{-m}$

=> $\sf 2^{8*-2} * 3 ^{-5*-2} * 3 ^{-2}* 2^{-3*4} * 2^{28}$

=> $\sf 2 ^ {-16} * 3^{10} * 3^{-8} * 2 ^{-12}* 2^{28}$

Combining same bases

=> $\sf 2 ^ {-16} * 2 ^{-12}* 2^{28}* 3^{10} * 3^{-8}$

When bases are same , powers are to be added

=> $\sf 2 ^{-16-12+28} * 3^{10-8}$

=> $\sf 2^{-28+28} * 3^2$

=> $\sf 2^0 * 3^2$

=> $\sf 3^2$

=> 9

(80 POINTS) What rule describes a dilation with a scale factor of ½ and the center of dilation at the origin?

lesya [120]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x, y) -> (1/2x, 1/2y)

When you dilate a side, point, etc, you are multiplying the original dimension by the scale factor. That is represented in option C: the original x and y are multiplied by the scale factor, 1/2! Hope that helps! :)
