Answer:
X intercept: -8
Y intercept: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the equation, and then solve like a normal two-step equation. (I'm sorry that it wasn't a great explanation. If you want a better one just send me an email in the inbox and I can give you a better explanation.)
HP = JP (since the opposite sides of an isosceles triangle are equal)
3x - 6 = x + 2
2x = 8
x = 4
Thus, HP = 3(4) - 6 = 12 - 6 = 6
JP = 4 + 2 = 6
JH = 2(4) = 8.
The figure showing the construction is given below.
Steps for the construction of a circle through three points not on a straight line are as follows:
1. To create two lines, connect the points.
2. Create the line's perpendicular bisector.
3. Create the opposite line's perpendicular bisector.
4. The circle's center is where they intersect.
5. Draw your circle by placing the compass on the center point and adjusting its length to reach any point.
What happens if the points are parallel?
The circle traveling through all three points will have an infinite radius if the three points are collinear, or all situated on a straight line. Therefore, a practical circle cannot traverse three collinear locations. The two radii would be parallel and would never come together at a center if you tried the construction. We may claim that they do cross mathematically but at infinity.
Hence, after following the steps we obtain the circle.

No, he is not correct. The lines are the same, so there are an infinite number of solutions.
When two lines are parallel, then the solution is empty set.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
4x + 9 = 2x + 15
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract 2x on both sides: 2x + 9 = 15
- Subtract 9 on both sides: 2x = 6
- Divide 2 on both sides: x = 3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 4(3) + 9 = 2(3) + 15
- Multiply: 12 + 9 = 6 + 15
- Add: 21 = 21
Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.
∴ x = 3 is the solution to the equation.
