Answer:

26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If point F is on the line segment EG, then EF+FG = EG

Given

FG=8,

EF=2x+4

EG=4x−10

Substitute the given values into the formula;

2x+4+8 = 4x−10

2x+12 = 4x-10

collect like terms

2x-4x = -10-12

-2x = -22

x = 22/2

x =11

Since EF = 2x+4

EF = 2(11)+4

EF = 22+4

EF = 26

Hence the numerical length of EF is 26 units

The answer=>

For this,we need to know what's Middle splitting method

  • In order to factorize x² + bx + c we have to find numbers p and q such that p + q = b and pq = c. After finding p and q, we split the middle term in the quadratic as <em><u>px + qx and</u></em> get desired factors by grouping the terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

9x {}^{2}  - 24x + 16 \\  =  > 9x {}^{2}  - 12x - 12x + 16 \\  =  > 3x(3x - 4) - 4(3x - 4) \\  =  > (3x - 4)(3x - 4) \\ so... \\ x = eitherway \: 4

i.e

Alpha= Beta = 4

A small motorboat travels 12mph in still water. It takes 3 hours longer to travel 68 miles going upstream than it does going dow
BartSMP [9]
Let the speed of the current be x mi/hr
speed upstream=(12-x) mi/hr
speed downstream=(12+x) mi/hr
It takes 3 hours longer to travel upstream than downstream, thus
time taken upstream=68/(12-x)
time taken to travel downstream=68/(12+x)
the difference in time will be:
68/(12-x)-68/(12+x)=3
solving for x we get:
x=2.98 mi/hr

Thus the rate of current is 2.98 mi/hr
