Hope this helps but I this helps but I think the answer is D if not then try B
Answer: -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x
3x - 8= -14
3x= -14+8
3x= -6
x= -2
Answer:
a. x = 9
b. GH = 30; GK = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
An angle bisector in a triangle divides the sides proportionally.
<h3>a.</h3>
In this triangle, that means ...
(3x +3)/18 = (3x -7)/12
2(3x +3) = 3(3x -7) . . . . . . . multiply by 36
6x +6 = 9x -21 . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
27 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 21 -6x
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

<h3>b.</h3>
The segment lengths are found by substituting the value of 3x in each of the given expressions:
GH = 3x +3 = 27 +3 = 30
GK = 3x -7 = 27 -7 = 20
The standard form of the quadratic equation is given by:
ax ^ 2 + bx + c
What we must do in this case is to rewrite the given equation.
We have then:
2/3 (x-4) (x + 5) = 1
(x-4) (x + 5) = 3/2
(x ^ 2 + 5x-4x-20) = 3/2
2x ^ 2 + 2x-40 = 3
2x ^ 2 + 2x-43 = 0
Thus, the values of a, b and c are:
a = 2
b = 2
c = -43
Answer:
a = 2
b = 2
c = -43
Well,
Slope-intercept form is given as follows:
y = mx + b
In this equation, "m" is the slope, and "b" is the y-intercept.
y = 12x + 7
We can clearly see that the 12 in the equation is the "m" in the general slope-intercept form.
Therefore, the slope of the equation is 12.
