Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since B is the midpoint, that means segment AB has to be the same length as BC.

Therefore:

2(3x-1)=8x-20

6x-2=8x-20

18=2x

9=x

Will mark brainliest<br><br><br> ONE question with picture included! no need to do part c :)

Answer:

x + y = 24

16x + 20y = 434

x = 11.5

y = 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

x + y = 24

16x + 20y = 434

Part B:

simplify the second equation to find a "kind of answer" to a variable,

so we could simplify it to either y = 21.7 - 0.8x or x = 27.125 - 1.25y

in this case we will use y = 21.7 - 0.8x

substitute your new value of y into the first equation:

x + (21.7 - 0.8x) = 24

now, we can solve this to find the actual value of x: x = 11.5

so plug in your real x value to the simplified second equation (y = 21.7 - 0.8x)

you get y = 12.5

this tells you how many hours the machine spent on making each type of item

Use the conditional statement to answer the question.
lions [1.4K]
The original statement is true by the definition of what constitutes a right angle. It's simply set up this way. 

The contrapositive would be the statement "if the angle does not measure 90 degrees, then the angle is not a right angle" which is also a true statement. Example: a 37 degree angle is not a right angle.

Note: the original conditional "If P, then Q" would have the contrapositive be in the form "If not Q, then not P". We flip P and Q, and stick "not"s in front of both parts. 

So this is why the answer is choice D
