if we run a line from a corner(vertex) in a triangle, towards the middle-point of the opposite side, the line we get is called a median, so in this triangle we have three medians, AE, CD and BF.

now, since the median hits the opposite side in the middle, that means two equal halves from that middle


the line where all medians meet inside the triangle is the centroid.  The centroid cuts all medians in a 2:1 ratio, so one side of the median is twice as long as the other side.

we know CD = 18, let's split it in a 2:1 ratio

\bf 18\qquad 2:1\qquad \cfrac{2}{1}\qquad \cfrac{2\cdot \frac{18}{2+1}}{1\cdot \frac{18}{2+1}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 6}{1\cdot 6}\implies \cfrac{12}{6} \\\\\\ \cfrac{GC}{DG}=\cfrac{12}{6}\implies DG=6\qquad GC=12


we also know that AG = 10, and that AG : GE is a ratio of 2:1, so is AG is 10, then GE must be half that, because AG is twice as much as GE, so GE = 5, and AG + GE = AE, so AE = 15.

Write an equation passing through the point and perpendicular to the given line: (-3,5);y = 3/4x-4
balandron [24]

Hey!

So the first thing we realize is that it says that the equation is perpendicular to the line, meaning that the slope of the line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line you are given. Since we are given the slope of this line as 3/4 we can take the negative reciprocal of this to get -(4/3).

Now that we have the slope and a point on the line you can plug those into the equation y = mx + b to find b. The slope of the line is m and the point contains the x and y values.

5 = -(4/3)(-3) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 = b

Since we have the y-intercept and the slope now we can plug that into the slope-intercept form equation to get the equation we need:

y = -(4/3)x + 1

15. A rectangle has a length of 2x - 1 and a width of 3x + 7. Find the perimeter of this rectangle.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

10x + 12 and 6x² + 11x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w ( l is length and w is width )

   = 2(2x - 1) + 2(3x + 7) ← distribute parenthesis

    = 4x - 2 + 6x + 14 ← collect like terms

     = 10x + 12

--------------------------------------------------

The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = lw

   = (2x - 1)(3x + 7) ← expand using FOIL

    = 6x² + 14x - 3x - 7 ← collect like terms

    = 6x² + 11x - 7

6.371 in lowest terms
kozerog [31]
Well you would have to round this 5 and above goes up. Since 1 is lower than 5 that would leave you at 6.37. 7 rounds up so that would change to 6.4. Lastly 4 would round down, So that would leave you with 6. Now 6 is the simplest form but if your looking for rounded to the nearest tenth the answer would be 6.4. If your looking for rounded to the nearest 100th place 6.37. But over all simplest form is 6.
