The midpoint divided a segment into two congruent lengths/segments.

So, QM = MR.

Set up the equation.

16 + x = 2(x+ 2)

16 + x = 2x + 4

12 + x = 2x

12 = x


Now, that you have the value of x, substitute it for the two equations.

QM = 16 + x

QM = 16 + 12

QM = 28


MR = 2(12+ 2)

MR = 2(14)

MR = 28


Find the whole length by of the line by adding the two segments. 28 × 2 = 56.

QR = 56

Which inequality is shown in this graph
Katena32 [7]

ANSWER

y \leqslant   - 2x - 2

EXPLANATION

The boundary line passes through (-2,2) and (0,-2).

The slope of this line is

m =  \frac{ - 2 - 2}{0 -  - 2}

m =  \frac{ - 4}{2}  =  - 2

The y-intercept is , c=-2.

The slope-intercept form of this line is given by;

y = mx + c

We substitute values to obtain;

y =  - 2x - 2

Since the lower half-plane is shaded the required inequality is

y \leqslant   - 2x - 2

Complete each trinomial such that it can be rewritten in the form a(x+b)^2 or a(x-b)^2
scoundrel [369]

The value of the expression  in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4

<h3>Vertex Form of a quadratic expression</h3>

Given the quadratic expressions

1.5x^2+6x+......

1.5(x^2 + 4x)

Using the completing the square method

The coefficient of x = 4

Half of the coefficient = 4/2 = 2

The square of the result = 2^2 = 4

The equation is expressed as:

f(x) = 1.5(x^2+4x+ 4) - 4

f(x) = 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4

Hence the value of the expression  in the form a(x+b)^2 is 1.5(x+2)^2 - 4
