Answer:

The length of AC is 18 feet ⇒ 4th answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise an important theorem for a triangle

- <em>If a line segment joining the mid-points of two sides of a triangle, </em>

<em>   then this line segment is parallel to the third side of the triangle and</em>

<em>   equal half its length</em>

<em></em>

* Lets use this theorem to solve the problem

- In Δ ABC

∵ Line MN intersects the sides AB at M

∵ MA = MB

∴ M is the mid point of the side AB

∵ Line MN intersects the sides BC at N

∵ NC = NB

∴ N is the mid point of the side BC

- <em>By using the theorem above</em>

  In Δ ABC

∵ M is the mid-point of AB

∵ N is the mid-point of BC

∴ MN // AC

∴ MN = \frac{1}{2} AC

∵ The length of MN = 9 feet

∵ MN = \frac{1}{2} AC

∴ 9 = \frac{1}{2} AC

- Multiply both sides by 2

∴ AC = 18 feet

* The length of AC is 18 feet

-14, -6, 2, 0,...<br> Is it geometric
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

No it is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason.

For geometric: common ratio r should be equal

r = T2/T1 = T3/T2 but is not true here as -6/-14 is not equal to 2/-6

Solve x2 – 8x = 3 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

x = 4 ± \sqrt{19}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 8x = 3

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 = 3 + 16

(x - 4)² = 19 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 4 = ± \sqrt{19} ( add 4 to both sides )

x = 4 ± \sqrt{19}

BartSMP [9]
5  \frac{3}{4} -1 \frac{7}{8} =  \frac{23}{4} - \frac{15}{8} = \frac{46}{8} - \frac{15}{8} = \frac{46-15}{8} = \frac{31}{8} = \boxed {3 \frac{7}{8} }
