Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equations equal to each other and solve for x

8x+11 = 12x-1

11=4x-1

12=4x

x=3

<h3>Answer: x = 3</h3>

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

Explanation:

T is the midpoint of SU, so point T cuts segment SU into two equal halves. Those two halves being ST and TU, therefore, ST = TU

ST = TU

8x+11 = 12x-1 ... substitution

8x+11-8x = 12x-1-8x ... subtract 8x from both sides

11 = 4x-1

11+1 = 4x-1+1 .... add 1 to both sides

12 = 4x

4x = 12

4x/4 = 12/4 .... divide both sides by 4

x = 3

As a check, plug x = 3 into each equation below

ST = 8x+11 = 8*3+11 = 24+11 = 35

TU = 12x-1 = 12*3-1 = 36-1 = 35

Each piece ST and TU is 35 units long. So this confirms we have the right answer.

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the graph of the equation y = 10x - 20?
8_murik_8 [283]

10

The slope of all parallel lines is equal. 10 is the slope in the equation y = 10x - 20, so the slope of a line parallel to it has to be 10 also.

A right triangle has side 10 and hypotenuse 26. Use the Pythagorean Theorem
alekssr [168]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} where a and b are the legs in a right triangle and c is the hypotenuse. Therefore, just substitute the values a = 10 and c = 26 into the equation to get b = 24

Hope this helps :)

40 POINTS PLS HELP IMEDIATLY
MakcuM [25]
Part A)
If f(x) - 3 is the new equation, it means there is a vertical translation of f(x) down 3 units. The y-intercept will decrease by 3 units. Areas of increasing on the function may be lessened as the function is being translated down 3 units. The areas of decrease will increase because the function is being translated down. End behaviour will not change from a translation as long as the function is continuous at each end, (not a finite function with end points). The evenness or oddness of f(x) will not change either.

Part B:
The y-intercept will be flipped horizontally about the x-axis and multiplied by 2. This will mean that if the y-intercept was positive, it will now be negative and vice versa. The increasing and decreasing regions of the graph will be flipped, so anywhere f(x) was positive will now be negative and vice versa. They will also be double what they were before because all values are multiplied by 2. The end behaviour will switch. If f(x) was from Quad1->Quad3 for example, it will now be Quad2->Quad4 because of the flip at the x-axis. The evenness and oddness of the function will not change seeing as the degree of f(x) is not affected.
