Good evening

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let Point M(x , y) be the midpoint of segment HK then

x = (8+10)/2 = 18/2 = 9

y = (13+9)/2 = 22/2 = 11.

The points with coordinates (x, -1), (2,2), and (4,3) lie on the same line. What is the value of x?

borishaifa [10]

Find the slope of the line passing throught the points (2, 2) and (4, 3).

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{3-2}{4-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

If the point (x, -1) lie on the same line, then the slope of line passing through the points (2, 2) and (x, -1) the same:

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{-1-2}{x-2}=\dfrac{-3}{x-2}$

We have the equation:

$\dfrac{-3}{x-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}$ <em>cross multiply</em>

$(1)(x-2)=(-3)(2)$

$x-2=-6$ <em>add 2 to both sides</em>

$x=-4$

<h3>Answer: x = -4.</h3>

Select all values of x that make the inequality true -x+6> 10 true .

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving inequalities:</u>

We have a set of numbers to verify which ones of them make the below inequality true

$-x+6>10$

Rearrange

$-10+6>x$

Operating

$-4>x$

Flipping

$x$

The set of solutions contains every number less than -4

There are only two numbers less than -4 in the set of options:

C. -4.01

H. -7

If f(x) = −3x + 4 and g(x) = 2, solve for the value of x for which f(x) = g(x) is true.

Serjik [45]

F(x) = -3x + 4
g(x) = 2

To get f(x) = g(x)
-3x + 4 = 2
-3x = 2-4
-3x = -2
x = (-2/-3)
x = 2/3

3 (6+3n) = 5n + 18 + 3n

amid [387]

Answer:

n = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply parenthesis by 3 and get:

1.) 18 + 9n = 5n + 18 + 3n

Then cancel the equal terms:

9n = 5n + 3n

Collect like terms:

9n = 8n

Move variable to the left:

9n - 8n = 0

n + 0

Plugin the value of 0 into x:

3 (6 + 3 x 0) = 18

5 x 0 + 3 x 0 + 18 = 18

*If the plugged in value have the same result than the answer is correct because 18 + 18.
