Answer:

(6,7) is a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if (6,7) is a solution, we substitute the point in and see if the inequality is true

15x+11y>12

15(6) + 11(7) >12

90+77 > 12

167>12

This is true so (6,7) is a solution

The point (6,7) means that x = 6 and y = 7 pair up together. Let's plug them into the inequality.

15*x + 11*y > 12

15*6 + 11*7 > 12 ... replace x with 6, y with 7

90 + 77 > 12

167 > 12 ... this inequality is true since 167 is larger than 12

Because the last inequality is true, this means the first inequality is true when (x,y) = (6,7).

Therefore, (6,7) is a solution to the inequality.

X=-7 AB=-72

steps

since m is a midpoint, AM and MB are congruent so you set the two equations equal to each other, 4x-9=5x-3/3( is this a typo? bc 3/3 is 1)
subtract 4x from both sides m, -8=x-1
add 1 to both sides
x=-7

then plug -7 in for x 4(-7)-8=-36
since the two segments are congruent u do -36 x 2= -72
