Answer:

C. 12(x -5) = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The given verbal statement is "The product of 12 and 5 less than the number x is 45."

Now we have to convert to algebraic equation.

Product means "x"

Less than means "-"

5 less than the number x = x - 5

is means "="

The product of 12 and 5 less than the number x = 12(x - 5)

So, The product of 12 and 5 less than the number x is 45 means

12(x -5) = 45

Therefore, the answer is C. 12(x -5) = 45

5 less than the number x = (x - 5)
Product of 12 and that : 12(x - 5) is = 45. Is is represented by the = sign.

12(x - 5) = 45

Option (c).

Hey i think the only mistake i caught was when you put 3 points under the line mark instead of only needing 2.
Possibly another mistake at 3a, Only 2 points (but i could be wrong)

To divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment.
These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions.
The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.

<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional geometric shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles only.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

<h3>What is a perpendicular bisector?</h3>

A perpendicular bisector can be defined as a type of line that bisects (divides) a line segment exactly into two (2) halves and forms an angle of 90 degrees at the point of intersection.

In this scenario, we can reasonably infer that to divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment. These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions. The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.
