Answer:

<u><em>The length of AD is 32 feet</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportional distances </u>

When distances are proportions of others, we can express all of them as relative fractions until we reach some known distance and solve for the desired length

Let's call x the length of AD. Given C is the midpoint of AD, then

\displaystyle AC=CD=\frac{x}{2}

Given B is the midpoint of AC, then

\displaystyle AB=BC=\frac{AC}{2}=\frac{x}{4}

If we know BC=8 feet

\displaystyle \frac{x}{4}=8\ feet

\displaystyle x=32\ feet

The length of AD is 32 feet

Answer:

The slope is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1}

Let's plug in!

m = \frac{ 9 - 4}{4 - ( -1)} = \frac{ 5}{ 5} = 1

1. What is the solution to the system below?<br> x+y=5<br> 1x- y=3
Alika [10]

Answer:

(4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=5

x- y=3

Add the equations together to eliminate y

x+y=5

x- y=3

--------------------

2x = 8

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 8/2

x = 4

Now we can find y

x+y = 5

4+y = 5

Subtract 4 from each side

4+y-4 = 5-4

y =1

A water truck is filling a swimming pool. The equation that represents this relation is y=18.25x where y is the number of gallon
QveST [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, however, one of the requirements of this question while I searched, was to make a table and sketch the equation.

If this is the case, then, all you need to do is take the equation, Assume some values for x, and compute the values of y. Then, you can do the graph.

I begin with value from 0 to 10.

This is the example of calculations:

x = 0

y = 18.25*0 = 0

for x = 0, we get y = 0. For x = 2:

y = 18.25 * 2 = 36.5

If we keep doing this, we should get a straight line. See the graph and attached table. If the question is asking another thing, then please get back to me to answer it.
