Answer:
17.6
Step-by-step explanation:
A point that bisects a segment would be its midpoint. This is a case where the vocabulary (bisect as opposed to midpoint) makes it harder.
To find the midpoint, we use the midpoint formula. The midpoint formula is:
midpoint = (x₁ + x₂/2, y₁ + y/2). To find it, you add the x coordinates and then divide them by 2. Repeat for the y coordinates.
x: (-2 + 6)/2 = 4/2 = 2
y: (5 +1)/2 = 6/2 = 3
Thus the point B bisecting AC is at (2, 3).

you have to use the distance formula to find the answer. it comes out as u have to square nine and nine squared is 3
Answer:
#2
the answer is b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Part A: 3x²(x⁸ - 16)
Part B: 3x²(x² - 2)(x² + 2) (x² - 2x + 2)(x² + 2x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A. Factor out the greatest common factor
3x¹⁰ - 48 x²
= 3x²(x⁸ - 16)
Part B. Factor the expression completely
(i) Factor the difference of squares
x⁸ - 16
= (x⁴ - 4)(x⁴ + 4)
= (x² - 2)(x² + 2)(x⁴ + 4)
3x¹⁰ - 48 x² = 3x²(x² - 2)(x² + 2)(x⁴ + 4)
(ii) Factor the sum of squares
Use the Sophie Germain Identity to factor x⁴ + 4.
x⁴ + 4
= (x²)² + 2² (Still a sum of squares)
= (x² + 2)² - 4x² (Factor this as a difference of squares)
= (x² + 2 - 2x)(x² + 2 + 2x)
3x¹⁰ - 48 x² = 3x² (x² - 2)(x² + 2) (x² - 2x + 2)(x² + 2x + 2)
