Answer:

AB = 13 + 13 = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Since M is the midpoint, we know that AM = MB

Thus,

3x-8 = 2x-1

-2x -2x

x - 8 = -1

+ 8 +8

x = 7

The AM = 3(7) - 8 = 13

The MB = 2(7) - 1 = 13

The length of AB = AM + MB which is AB = 13 + 13 = 26

The function f(x) represents the time it takes an airplane to travel east. The function g(x) represents the time it takes an air

The total time taken for round trip will be: (f+g)(x) = 14x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 4x+13\\g(x) = 10x-2$

In order to find the round-trip time, we have to add both functions to represent the time taken to travel east and the time taken to travel to west.

$(f+g)(x) = f(x)+g(x)\\= (4x+13)+(10x-2)\\=4x+13+10x-2\\=4x+10x+13-2\\=14x+11$

Hence,

The total time taken for round trip will be: (f+g)(x) = 14x+11
