Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

M is in the middle between S and T we know 2x+6 has to be the same as 3x+3 if 3x is one more x then 2x then we do 6-3 that eqauls 3 so X=3 and 2*3=6 and 6+6= 12.

Hey there! :D

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{SM = 12}$

SM = 2x + 6

MT = 3x + 3

M is the midpoint of SM

Write an expression to represent the length of ST:

ST = SM + MT

ST = 2x + 6 + 3x + 3

Combine like terms:

ST = 5x + 9

Since ST = 2(SM), set up another equation:

5x + 9 = 2(2x + 6)

5x + 9 = 4x + 12

Isolate the "x" variable:

5x - 4x = 12 - 9

x = 3.

Substitute in this value of "x" into the equation for SM:

2(3) + 6 = 12.

A certain bag of potting soil is 1/4 peat moss, and the rest is dirt. What part is dirt?

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$D = 1 - \frac{1}{4}$

$D = \frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1 bag of potting soil

$Peat Moss = \frac{1}{4}$

Required

What part is dirt?

The whole bag of potting soil is represented as 1;

Let P represent Peat Moss and D represented Dirt; Such that

$P + D = 1$

Subtract P from both sides

$P - P + D = 1 - P$

$D = 1 - P$

Substitute $\frac{1}{4}$ for P

$D = 1 - \frac{1}{4}$

Take LCM

$D = \frac{4-1}{4}$

$D = \frac{3}{4}$

Hence,  $1 - \frac{1}{4}$  or  $\frac{3}{4}$  of the potting soil is Dirt

Which integral gives the area of the region in the first quadrant bounded by the graphs of y2 = x − 1, x = 0, y = 0, and y = 2?

Zarrin [17]

Interesting that only integrals along the $x$ -axis are suggested when integrating along the $y$ -axis would be much simpler... Anyway, you have to split the interval of integration into two. The "height" of the region is not uniform over the entire interval.
