Answer:

The pair of equations which has (2,12) as its solution is,

equation B and equation C.

                           

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

equation of line A is \frac {y - 16}{x + 6} = \frac {16 + 4}{-6 - 9}

                            or, \frac {y - 16}{x + 6} = \frac {-4}{3}

                            or, 3y - 48 = -4x - 24

                            or, 3y + 4x = 24 ------------------(1)

Now, the point (2, 12) doesn't satisfy (1). Hence, (2,12) is not a solution for the line A.

Equation of line B is, \frac {y - 20}{x + 2} = \frac {20 - 0}{-2 - 8}

                              or, \frac {y - 20}{x + 2} = -2

                              or, y - 20 = -2x  - 4

                              or, y + 2x = 16  -----------------------------(2)

The point (2,12) is satisfied by (2). Hence, (2, 12) is a solution for line B.

Equation of line C is, \frac {y + 6}{x + 7} = \frac {20 + 6}{6 + 7}

                              or, \frac {y + 6}{x + 7} = 2

                              or, y + 6 = 2x + 14

                              or. y - 2x = 8 -----------------------------------(3)

The point (2, 12) is satisfied by (3). Hence, (2 , 12) is a solution for the line C.

Equation of line D is, \frac {y - 20}{x - 7} =\frac {20 + 7}{7 - 0}

                               or, \frac {y - 20}{x - 7} = \frac {27}{7}

                               or, 7y - 140 = 27x - 189

                               or, 7y  - 27x = -49----------------------------------------(4)

The point (2, 12) is not satisfied by (4). hence, (2, 12) is not a solution of the line D

Hence, the pair of equations which has (2,12) as its solution is,

equation B and equation C.

What is the value of x?<br><br>enter your answer in the box<br><br>X__​
vfiekz [6]
<h3>Answer: x = 5</h3>

=====================

Work Shown:

Angle Bisector Theorem

9/(2x-1) = 15/3x

9*3x = 15(2x-1) ... cross multiply

27x = 30x-15

27-30x = 30x-15-30x ... subtract 30x from both sides

-3x = -15

-3x/(-3) = -15/(-3) .... divide both sides by -3

x = 5
