M is the midpoint of AB. AM = = 4x - 8 MB = 5x-3/3 Find x and AB

1 answer:

7 0

X=-7 AB=-72

steps

since m is a midpoint, AM and MB are congruent so you set the two equations equal to each other, 4x-9=5x-3/3( is this a typo? bc 3/3 is 1)
subtract 4x from both sides m, -8=x-1
add 1 to both sides
x=-7

then plug -7 in for x 4(-7)-8=-36
since the two segments are congruent u do -36 x 2= -72

Readme [11.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys

$20 + (20 \div 100)30 = \\ = 20 + 0.2 \times 30 = \\ = 20 + 6 = \\26$

Girls

$26 - (26 \div 100)15 = \\ = 26 - 0.26 \times 15 = \\ = 26 - 3.9 = \\ = 22$

Total last year 46

David, a platform diver, dives into the pool during practice. The height of David above the water at any given time, s, can be m

ella [17]

Check the pictures below.

if we knew the roots/solutions of the equation, we can set h(s) = 0 and solve for "s" to find out how many seconds is it when the height is 0.

if you notice in the first picture, when f(x) = 0, is when the parabola hits a root/solution or the ground, for David he'll be hitting the water surface, and the equation that has both of those roots/solutions conspicuous is

h(s) = -4.9(s - 2)(s + 1).
