Answer:

x = 8
AM = BM = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Your problem setup is correct. The triangle is isosceles, so the marked segments are the same length.

3x - 8 = 2x

You can solve this by subtracting 2x (from both sides) ...

x - 8 = 0

Then adding 8 (to both sides):

x = 8

MB = MA = 2x = 16.

HELP ASAP<br><br><br>What is the ratio 25 to 65 written as a fraction in lowest terms?

alekssr [168]

The GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 25 and 65 is 5. So, we can divide both numbers by 5.

25 / 5 = 5

65 / 5 = 13

Now, put it into a fraction.

5/13

This cannot be simplified any further.

Best of Luck!

Find the inverse of f(x)=2x-1

solong [7]

${ \qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}}$

Let's find the inverse of given function ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: f(x) = 2x - 1$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2x = f(x) + 1$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: x = \cfrac{f(x) + 1}{2}$

[ now, replace f(x) and x with $\sf{ {f}^{-1}(x)}$ ]

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: f {}^{ - 1} (x) = \cfrac{x + 1}{2}$

That's the required inverse function ~
