Well, assuming E is the beginning, F is the middle, and G is the end, then

9x+14+56=250
9x=250-(56+14)
9x=250-70
9x=180
9x/9=180/9
X=20

The whole E to G is 250, and it gave you lengths between it

Answer:

Value of x =20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: EF = 9x+14 units , FG = 56 units and EG = 250 units.

Segment Addition Postulates states the following for 3 points that are collinear.

i.e, Let three points A, B and C are collinear and B is between A and C.

i,e AC = AB + BC

By Segment addition postulates; solve for x;

EG = EF + FG

Substitute the given values we get;

250 = 9x + 14 + 56

or

250 = 9x + 70

Subtract 70 on both sides we get;

250 -70 = 9x + 70 -70

Simplify:

180 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9 we get;

\frac{180}{9} = \frac{9x}{9}

Simplify:

x = 20

Therefore, the value of x =20

How much extra snow would a child need to take a snowball with a diameter of 8 cm and increase its size to a snowball with a dia
Sergio039 [100]

The amount of the extra snow would a child need to take a snowball will be 636.71 cubic cm.

<h3>What is the volume of the sphere?</h3>

Let d be the diameter of the sphere.

Then the volume of the sphere will be

V = 1/6 πd³ cubic units

Then the amount of the extra snow would a child need to take a snowball with a diameter of 8 cm and increase its size to a snowball with a diameter of 12 cm will be

Amount of snow = 1/6 π x 12³ - 1/6 π x 8³

Amount of snow = 288 π - 85.33π

Amount of snow = 636.71 cubic cm

More about the volume of the sphere link is given below.

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

y = 1/40x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept equation format:

y = mx + b

m = slope/ gradient/ constant of variation/ rate of change

b = y-intercept

To find the slope, use the formula:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Find  two random points:

1 - (0.5, 40) , 2 - (1, 60)

Plug in:

\frac{60-40}{1-0.5}

Solve:

\frac{20}{0.5}

Divide:

\frac{1}{40}

The y-intercept is when the x-coordinate is equal to 0.

The y-intercept is always the beginning.

So observing the graph, the first point is (0, 20)

The x-coordinate is 0.

Y intercept = 20.

Plug in both slope and y-intercept:

y = 1/40x + 20
