Answer:

The area of APC is 70m². The area of triangle PMC is 35m².

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the area of triangle ABC be x.

It is given that AM is median, it means AM divides the area of triangle in two equal parts.

\text{Area of }\triangle ACM=\text{Area of }\triangle ABM=\frac{x}{2}    .....(1)

The point P is the midpoint of AB, therefore the area of APC and BPC are equal.

\text{Area of }\triangle APC=\text{Area of }\triangle BPC=\frac{x}{2}          ......(2)

The point P is midpoint of AB therefore the line PM divide the area of triangle ABM in two equal parts. The area of triangle APM and BPM are equal.

\text{Area of }\triangle APM=\text{Area of }\triangle BPM=\frac{x}{4}        .....(3)

The area of triangle APM is 35m².

\text{Area of }\triangle APM=\frac{x}{4}

35=\frac{x}{4}

x=140

Therefore the area of triangle ABC is 140m².

Using equation (2).

\text{Area of }\triangle APC=\frac{x}{2}

\text{Area of }\triangle APC=\frac{140}{2}

\text{Area of }\triangle APC=70

Therefore the area of triangle APC is 70m².

Using equation (3), we can say that the area of triangle BPM is 35m² and by using equation (2), we can say that the area of triangle BPC is 70m².

\triangle BPC=\triangle BPM+\triangle PMC

70=35+\triangle PMC

35=\triangle PMC

Therefore the area of triangle PMC is 35m².

What percent of 72 is 48 with step by step process
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

67%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few methods to finding the percent of a number.  You can use proportions:

\frac{percent}{100}=\frac{48}{72}

The 'percent' is the percent of the fraction that you are looking for, or 48/72.

Cross-multiply:  72x = (48)(100) or 72x = 4800

Divide both sides by 72:  72x/72 = 4800/72

Solve for 'x':  x = 66.6666...

Round 66.666.... to the nearest percent: 67%

How to write g(x)=2x+3/x+1 in the form of:g(x)=a/x+p +q
aliya0001 [1]
Hello,

Please write correctly.

g(x)= (2x+3)/(x+1) to be written like a/(x+p) + q

It is very simple!

(2x+3)/(x+1)= [(2x+2)+1]/(x+1)= (2(x+1)+1)/(x+1)= 2+1/(x+1)
