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

Use row operations to solve the system.
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

x = 2, y = 7, z = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y - z = -3 (1)

3x - y + z = 11 (2)

x - 4y + z = -14 (3)

add (1) and (2)

4x = 8 x = 2

add (1) and (3)

2x - 3y = -17

2(2) - 3y = -17

-3y = -17 - 4

-3y = -21

y = 7

Find z using any equation

x + y - z = -3

2 + 7 - z = -3

9 - z = -3

z = 12

A 6-pack of capri-Suns costs $8.80 .How much would a 24-pack cost if the costs are proportional
andrew11 [14]
Now, in a 6-pack, there are 6 bottles, 6-pack.

in a 24-pack, there are 24 bottles, 24-pack.

so, if 6 bottles, cost 8.80, how much will it be for 24 bottles then?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;bottles&price\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;6&8.80\\&#10;24&p&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{6}{24}=\cfrac{8.80}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{24\cdot 8.80}{6}

HELP PLEASE EQUATION OF PARABOLA
Masteriza [31]

It has a minimum value at x = 3 and f(x) = 4

Vertex form is

f(x) = a(x - 3)^2 + 4 where a is some constant to be found

From the graph when x = 5 f(x) = 15, so

15 = a * 2^2 + 4

a = 15-4/4 = 11/4

so our equation is f(x) = 11/4(x - 3)^2 + 4
