let's bear in mind that B is the midpoint and thus it cuts a segment into two equal halves.

\bf \underset{\leftarrow \qquad \textit{\large 10x-6}\qquad \to }{\boxed{A}\stackrel{4x+2}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}} B\stackrel{\underline{4x+2}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}\boxed{C}}} \\\\\\ AC=AB+BC\implies 10x-6=(4x+2)+(4x+2)\implies 10x-6=8x+4 \\\\\\ 2x-6=4\implies 2x=10\implies x=\cfrac{10}{2}\implies x= 5 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ AC=(4x+2)+(4x+2)\implies AC=[4(5)+2]+[4(5)+2] \\\\\\ AC=22+22\implies AC=44

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

4.5 or 4.50 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

if we split 18.00 into \frac{1}{4} each part of the fraction would be 4.5 . or 4.50

mark pays 4.50

samuel pays 9.00

add those both and you'll get 13.50 $

now subtract 13.50 from 18.00 ( og price)

imran pays 4 . 5 0

hope this helped :p

irakobra [83]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

24 cubes. Reasoning varies. Sample reasoning: The length of the box

can fit or 5/4 : 5/12 =3 cubes. The width of the box can fit or 5/3 : 5/12 = 4 cubes.  The height of the box can fit 5/6 : 5/12 = 2 cubes. The box can fit

or 24 cubes.

I watched a video and didn't get my free answer, can I have some help,
vazorg [7]

Answer:

y + 13 = 5(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is

y = mx + b,

where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.

From the slope-intercept equation y = 5x - 3, we see that the slope of the line is 3.

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m = slope, and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

We have point (-2, -13), so x1 = -2, and y1 = -13.

We also have slope 5, so m = 5.

Now we use the coordinates of the given point and the slope in the point-slope equation.

y - (-13) = 5(x - (-2))

We simplify to get

y + 13 = 5(x + 2)
