Since BE bisects angle ABC, you know that angles ABE and EBC are congruent and have the same measure. This means
2x + 20 = 4x - 6
Solve for x:
(2x + 20) - 2x + 6 = (4x - 6) - 2x + 6
26 = 2x
26/2 = 2x/2
13 = x
Then angle ABE has measure 2*13 + 20 = 46º.

Answer:
x in {-6, -2, 4}
Step-by-step explanation:
The zero product rule tells you that a product will be zero if and only if one of the factors is zero. These binomial factors are zero when x has a value that is opposite the constant of the binomial.
x +6 = 0 ⇒ x = -6
x -4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
x +2 = 0 ⇒ x = -2
The zeros of the function are the x-values -6, -2, and 4.

Answer:
Lavania observed 39 fruit flies after 6 days of observation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of fruit flies on the first day of Lavania's study.
After 6 days she had nine more than five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study.
Five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study = 5x
Nine more than five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study=5x+9
The expression to find the population of fruit flies Lavania observed after 6 days is 5x+9
If she observes 20 fruit flies on the first day of the study, then x=6, then
