Answer:
It was difficult reading the question, as written. Check my assumptions.
Step-by-step explanation:
"five more than the product of two and a number,
decreased by seven"
---
Let the "number" be a.
We are told "five more than . ." means +5,
"the product of two and a number" means 2a,
"decreased by seven" mean -7
Put the statements together to obtain:
+5+2a-7
Simplify to 2a-2
Evaluate when a = 8:
2a-2
2(8)-2
16-2
= 14
The x terms add up to 4x and the numbers add up to 12
4x + 12 = 4(x + 3)
Its C
Answer:
BC = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
FD = 36, FE = 15 and CD = 18
By secant theorem.
DE • DF = CD • DB
(36 - 15) • 36 = 18 • DB
DB = 42
BC = DB - CD
BC = 42 - 18
BC = 24

The coordinates for D are (-4, -7)
First we must locate point B as it is vital to finding the midpoint of BD. To do this, we take the average of the endpoints AC since B is its midpoint.
x values = -9 + 1 = -8
Then divide by 2 for the average -8/2 = -4
y values = -4 + 6 = 2
Then divide by 2 for the average 2/2 = 1
Therefore B must be (-4, 1)
Now we know the values of E must be the average of B and D. So we can write equations for each coordinate since we know they are averages.
x - values = (Bx + Dx)/2 = Ex
(-4 + Dx)/2 = -4 ---> multiply both sides by 2
-4 + Dx = -8 ---> add -4 to both sides
Dx = -4
y - values = (By + Dy)/2 = Ey
(1 + Dy)/2 = -3 ---> multiply both sides by 2
1 + Dy = -6 ---> subtract 1 from both side
Dy = -7
So the coordinates for D must be (-4, -7)
Answer:
32 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using proportions.
Find the scale factor (how to get from left to right)
To get from left numerator to right numerator, multiply by 4.
(1/2) X 4 = 2
The scale factor is 4.
Multiply the left denominator by the scale factor to get "y".
8 mi X 4 = 32 mi
Therefore 2 inches represent 32 miles.
