Think of a pizza, cut in half. You have one half. If you cut each half into 3 pieces, you'll have a total of 6 pieces, so each piece is 1/6 of the pizza. But each half is made up of 3 1/6 pieces. So, three 1/6 pieces equals one 1/2 pizza.

x + 0.25x = 210
      1.25x = 210 
             x = 168

The length of the line segment <br><br> AB equals 3x+1<br><br> BC equals 4x-5<br><br> AC equals 8x-9
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

X = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is what I am picturing (not to scale)

A ----------------B-----------C

We are given the information of AB (which equals 3x + 1), BC (which equals 4x - 5), and AC (which equals 8x - 9).

With reference to the line, AB + BC = AC

So,

3x + 1 + 4x - 5 = 8x - 9

7x - 4 = 8x - 9

5 = x

The functions f(x) and g(x) are shown.
erastova [34]

The function f(x) takes on the value 2 when x =  -7 and x = -3, and thus the corresponding points are (-7,2) and (-3,2).

The points where g(x) = 0 are called "roots" or "solutions," and is (3,0).

f(x) > g(x)  on the approx. interval (-9, -3/4).

What is the median of 1.5 hours 30 minutes 1 hour 15 minutes and 1.25 minutes
mrs_skeptik [129]
We have 1.5 hours 30 minutes = 120 minutes;
1 hour 15 minutes = 75 minutes;
1.25 minutes = 85 minutes;

75 < 85 < 120
The median is 85 minutes.
Finally, 1 hour 15 minutes is the median.
