Answer:  

34 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an image of a triangle and we are asked to find the length of segment DG,

We can see that point g is the centroid of our given triangle as it is the point, where medians of our given triangle are intersecting.

Since we know that centroid of a triangle divides its medians in 2:1 ratio, so we can set an equation for DG and CG as:

2*CG=DG

Now let us solve for x.

2(x+5)=3x-2

2x+10=3x-2

2x-2x+10=3x-2x-2

10=x-2

10+2=x-2+2

12=x

Upon substituting x=12 in the expression for the length of segment DG we will get,

DG=3x-2

DG=3*12-2

DG=36-2

DG=34

Therefore, the length of segment DG is 34 units.

A store brought a case of disposable cameras for $300. The store's profit p on the cameras is a function of the number c of came
rewona [7]

Answer:

Range: {-300, -210, 0, 72}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost price of each camera = $300

The function for profit 'p' is given as:

p=6c-300

Where, 'p' is the profit and 'c' is the number of cameras sold.

The domain of the function is: {0, 15, 50, 62}

Now, range is the output of the above function for the given domain.

Here, 'c' is the independent variable and hence the domain.

So, plugging in the values of 'c' in the above function will give the set of values of range.

For c=0, the profit is given as:

p(0)=6(0)-300\\p(0)=-300

For c=15, the profit is given as:

p(15)=6(15)-300\\p(15)=90-300=-210

For c=50, the profit is given as:

p(50)=6(50)-300\\p(50)=300-300=0

For c=62, the profit is given as:

p(62)=6(62)-300\\p(62)=372-300=72

Therefore, the range of the given function is: {-300, -210, 0, 72}

The above range represents the profit of the store when 'c' number of cameras are sold. The domain represents the number of cameras that are sold by the store.

So, negative profit means the store has a loss on selling that number cameras.

The store suffers loss upto 50 cameras sold. When the number of cameras sold is 50, there is neither loss not profit. At this point, total cost price equals total selling price. This is also break even point.

After this point, the store will have a net profit. So, for 62 cameras sold, the net profit of the store is $72.

What are the coordinates of the Image of point M under a Reflection across the y-axis?
dexar [7]

Answer:

(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection Rule for the Y-Axis:

(x,y) \rightarrow(-x,y)

Using the mapping rule and Point M:

(2,-1) \rightarrow (-2,-1)

\text {M' is: } (-2,-1)

The correct option should be C.
