The bisector of the angle at A (call it AQ) divides the segment BC into segments BQ:QC having the ratio AB:AC. Use this fact to find x.
.. 9:15 = (2x -1):3x
.. 15(2x -1) = 9*3x . . . . . the product of the means equals the product of extremes
.. 30x -15 = 27x
.. 3x = 15
.. x = 5
___
According to the value of x, the bisector AQ divides the triangle into two isosceles triangles: ABQ, ACQ.
Answer:
5, -⅓
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2:
4x + 3y = 23
3y = 23 - 4(2)
3y = 15
y = 5
x = 6:
4x + 3y = 23
3y = 23 - 4(6)
3y = -1
y = -⅓
9/14 because 7+2 is 9 and 5+9 is 14
Answer: -18
<u>Explanation:</u>
Average rate of change is slope: 
. Need to find the y-coordinates:
g(x) = -x² - 4x
g(6) = -(6)² - 4(6)
= -36 - 24
= -60
⇒ (6, -60)
g(8) = -(8)² - 4(8)
= -64 - 32
= -96
⇒ (8, -96)
m = 
= 
= -18
Simplify the expression: -x-5y
