Answer:

D. a is equal to  \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that segment PQ is 8 units, so that its midpoint M is at 4 units to both P and Q.

Given that X is the midpoint of PM, this implies that X is at 2 units to both P and M.

Then;

PX = aPQ

⇒   = a x 8

      = 8a

Therefore, a must be equal to \frac{1}{4}, so that;

PX = 8a

     = 8 x  \frac{1}{4}

     = 2 units

Thus, a is equal to  \frac{1}{4} is the correct option.

Answer:

x ≈ 33.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan x = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{125}{192} , then

x = tan^{-1} ( \frac{125}{192} ) ≈ 33.1° ( to the nearest tenth )

A? ________ is an arrangement of r objects chosen from n distinct objects without repetition and without regard to order
aliya0001 [1]
If we do not care about order, then a combination is an arrangement of r objects chosen from n distinct objects. It can often be seen written as:

^{n}C_r or \left(\begin{array}{cc}n\\r\end{array}\right)

Its factorial form is:

^{n}C_r = \frac{n!}{r!(n - r)!}

4 = 1 - n + 4? Geometry btw
eimsori [14]

Answer:

N = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

4 = 1 - n -4

Subtract the numbers first

1 - 4 = -3

Then rearrange the terms

4 = -3 - n

-----> 4 = n - -3

The you add 3 to both sides of the equations

4 + 3 = -n - 3 + 3
