Answer:
x = 3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the segments proportionally. This means they satisfy ...
bottom segment / side segment = x/6 = (6-x)/4
Multiplying by 12 gives ...
2x = 3(6 -x)
2x = 18 -3x . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5x = 18 . . . . . . . . add 3x
x = 3.6 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
I like to try to work these mentally. The total of side lengths is 10, so the total base length (6) is 6/10 = 0.6 times that. Then x will be 0.6 times the left side length: 0.6·6 = 3.6 = x.

Answer:
D. The linear parent function
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear functions are always characterized by a straight line graph with or without an intercept on the vertical or horizontal axis. A linear function usually has an independent variable and a dependent variable. The independent variable is commonly depicted as x while the dependent variable is y.
Thus a linear equation is an equation of the type y=ax where a is a constant term. The equation of a straight line graph his y=mx +c, where;
m= gradient of the straight line graph
x= the independent variable
y= the dependent variable
c= the vertical intercept
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
- 10 + x + 4 - 5 = 7x - 5
-11 + x = 7x - 5
-6 + x = 7x
-6 = 6x
x = -1
