2x-6=12
+6 +6
2x=18
/2. /2
X=9
The answer is B
The coordinates for D are (-4, -7)
First we must locate point B as it is vital to finding the midpoint of BD. To do this, we take the average of the endpoints AC since B is its midpoint.
x values = -9 + 1 = -8
Then divide by 2 for the average -8/2 = -4
y values = -4 + 6 = 2
Then divide by 2 for the average 2/2 = 1
Therefore B must be (-4, 1)
Now we know the values of E must be the average of B and D. So we can write equations for each coordinate since we know they are averages.
x - values = (Bx + Dx)/2 = Ex
(-4 + Dx)/2 = -4 ---> multiply both sides by 2
-4 + Dx = -8 ---> add -4 to both sides
Dx = -4
y - values = (By + Dy)/2 = Ey
(1 + Dy)/2 = -3 ---> multiply both sides by 2
1 + Dy = -6 ---> subtract 1 from both side
Dy = -7
So the coordinates for D must be (-4, -7)
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to fin x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
7^2 + 24^2 = x^2
49+ 576 = x^2
625 = x^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt( 625) = sqrt(x^2)
25 = x
Answer:
RP: x equals 0
JH: x equals -11
EG: x equals 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Find zeros first:</u>
- x² + x - 6 = x² + 3x - 2x - 6 = x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3) = (x - 2)(x + 3)
- x = 2, x = -3, x = 7 (but x ≠ 7 as no division by zero)
<u>We have 4 intervals:</u>
- x ≤ - 3, three negatives, the result is negative or zero
- -3 ≤ x ≤ 2, two negatives and one positive, the result is positive or zero
- 2 ≤ x < 7, two positives and one negative, the result is negative or zero
- x > 7, three positives, the result is positive or zero
<u>The solution is:</u>
Correct choice is A
