Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let's first establish that triangle BCD is a right-angle triangle.
Therefore, we can use Pythagoras theorem to find BC and solve this problem. Pythagoras theorem is displayed below:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenus of right-angle triangle
Where a and c = other two sides of triangle
Now we can solve the problem by substituting the values from the problem into the Pythagoras theorem as displayed below:
Let a = BC
b = DC = 24
c = DB = 26
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
a^2 = 26^2 - 24^2
a = square root of ( 26^2 - 24^2 )
a = square root of ( 676 - 576 )
a = square root of ( 100 )
a = 10
Therefore, as a = BC, BC = 10.
If we want to check our answer, we can substitute the value of ( a ) from our answer in conjunction with the values given in the problem into the Pythagoras theorem. If the left-hand side is equivalent to the right-hand side, then the answer must be correct as displayed below:
a = BC = 10
b = DC = 24
c = DB = 26
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
100 + 576 = 676
676 = 676
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, BC is equivalent to 10.

The correct answer is y=4x-1
A closed circle means that value is included, and an open circle means that value is excluded.
Example:
x > 2 ---- Graphed with an open circle, everything greater than but not including 2
x ≤ 3 ------ Graphed with a closed circle, everything less than and including 3
The first integer (x) is equal to the consecutive even integers, x+2, x+4.
x = (x+2) + (x+4)
x = 2x + 6
x - 6 = 2x
x = -6 (First integer)
+2
-4 (Second integer)
+4
-2 (Third integer)
Integers: -6, -4, -2
Equation: x = (x+2) + (x+4)
Answer:
6 possible integers
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A decreasing geometric sequence
Required
Determine the possible integer values of m
Assume the first term of the sequence to be positive integer x;
The next sequence will be 
The next will be; 
The nth term will be 
For each of the successive terms to be less than the previous term;
then 
must be a proper fraction;
This implies that:
<em>Where 7 is the denominator</em>
<em>The sets of </em><em> is </em>
<em> and their are 6 items in this set</em>
<em>Hence, there are 6 possible integer</em>
