Answer:

30 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If point G is on line segment FH, then point G lies between points F and H.

Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points F and H, a third point G lies on the line segment FH if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation FG + GH = FH.

By segment addition postulate,

FG+GH=FH

Given

FH = 4x,

GH = x,

FG = 2x + 10,

then

4x=x+2x+10\\ \\4x=3x+10\\ \\4x-3x=10\\ \\x=10\\ \\FG=2x+10=2\cdot 10+10=30\ units

1. Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

#1) y = -4x + 1; #2) parallel; #3) y = -1/2x + 5/2; #4) y = 2x + 4; #5) Never

Step-by-step explanation:

#1) We want a line that passes through (1, -3) and is parallel to y = 2-4(x-1).  First we simplify our equation using the distributive property:

y = 2-4(x-1) = 2-4(x) -4(-1) = 2-4x--4 = 2-4x + 4 = -4x + 6

Lines that are parallel have the same slope; this means we want a line through (1, -3) with a slope of -4.  Using point-slope form,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y--3=-4(x-1)\\\\y+3=-4(x)-4(-1)\\\\y+3=-4x+4\\\\y+3-3=-4x+4-3\\\\y=-4x+1

#2) We must first write our second equation in slope-intercept form by isolating the y term:

2x+y=7

Subtract 2x from each side"

2x+y-2x = 7-2x

y = -2x+7

This means the slope is -2; the slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

#3) The slope of our given equation is 2.  To be perpendicular, the second line must have a slope that is a negative reciprocal (flipped and opposite signs); this makes it -1/2.  Using point-slope form,

y-0=\frac{-1}{2}(x-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}(x)+\frac{-1}{2}(-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}

#4) The slope of Main Street on the diagram, found by using rise/run, is 2.  This means the bike path will also have a slope of 2 in order to be parallel.  The park entrance is at (0, 4).  This makes the equation y = 2x+4.

#5) Two lines with the same slope are always parallel.  They are never perpendicular.

Find the missing number.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph, there is a cycle of increasing and decreasing. First, the original circle increases by 25% into the new, larger circle. Then, the circle does back to its original size. So, to solve we can assign a value to the smaller circle, increase it by 25%, and then find what percentage brings this back to the original value.

It is easiest to assign the value of 100 because it is easy to work with. So, let's say the smaller circle is 100; this increased by 25% is 125. The next step is to find what percentage of 125 brings us back to 100. There are multiple ways to do this such as guess and check or proportions/fractions. Either way, the correct percentage is 20%. If you decrease 125 by 20% you get the correct value of 100. This means that the missing number must be 20%.
