I'm not sure if this is right but you can set up an equation and solve to find Maggie's age:

Maggie's brother's age = b
Maggie's age = m

b = 12 - 3m
44 = 12-3m
12-3m = 44
-12 -12
-3m = 32
÷ 3 ÷3
m = 10.67

So this would be Maggie's age

I hope this helped :)

8. 39 - 180 = 141

9. 81 - 180 = 99

10. 81 - 180 = 99

11. 115 - 180 = 65

12. 41+36 = 77 - 180 = 103

Show that the statement is true. If GH has endpoints G(−2, 1) and H(4, −1), then the midpoint M of GH lies on the line y = −x +

Alex777 [14]

Midpoint = (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2)/2
(-2,1)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 1
(4,-1)...x2 = 4 and y2 = -1
time to sub
m = (-2 + 4) / 2 , (1 + (-1) / 2
m = (2/2), (0/2)
m = (1,0) <==

y = -x + 1.....(1,0)...x = 1 and y = 0
0 = -1 + 1
0 = 0 (correct)

so the midpoint M (1,0) lies on the line since its coordinates satisfy the equation <===

Find the measure of angle2 A. 90 B. 50 C. 60 D. 30

galina1969 [7]

I think it is C. 60.
You can eliminate A because it is not a right angle, and D because the angle is bigger than the given angle. So it is between 50 and 60, and I hope this is right and the picture makes sense
