Segments CD, AE, and BF are medians of triangle ABC.

EleoNora [17]3 years ago

Option C: x = 5.5 is the value of x

Explanation:

Given that CD, AE, an BF are the medians of the triangle ABC

Also, given that AM = 4x - 5 and ME=x+3

We need to determine the value of x.

Since, we know that the centroid divides the median in the ratio 2 : 1

Hence, we have,

AM=2\times ME

Substituting the values, we get,

4x-5=2(x+3)

Simplifying, we get,

4x-5=2x+6

Subtracting both sides of the equation by 2x, we have,

2x-5=6

Adding both sides of the equation by 5, we have,

2x=11

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we get,

x=5.5

Therefore, the value of x is 5.5

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

a silkworm winds its cocoon out of one long silk fiber. to make silk thread, 3 to 10 of these silk fibers are unwound from their
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.

Let the number of silk fibres = a.

It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.

So, we get the equation,

ax=300, where 3\leq a\leq 10

i.e. x=\frac{300}{a}, 3\leq a\leq 10

So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.

Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Explain why all squares must be rectangles but not all rectangles are squares
Neko [114]
A square is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles and all four sides of the same length. ... Thus every square is a rectangle because it is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles. However not every rectangle is a square, to be a square its sides must have the same length.

Find the inverse f^-1(x) if f(x)=x+2
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

f^-1(x) = x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function in terms of x and y, you would sway x and y in the function. We can rewrite f(x) = x + 2 as y = x + 2, since f(x) is basically y in a function. The inverse of y = x + 2 would be x = y + 2. Now, solve for y.

x = y + 2

-2 both sides.

x - 2 = y

y = x - 2

The inverse of y = x + 2 would be y = x - 2, so the inverse of f(x) = x + 2 would be f^-1(x) = x - 2 (f^-1(x) means the inverse of f(x)).

f^-1(x) = x - 2

I hope you find this helpful. :)
