Look at the picture.

1)|AM| = |MB| = x
|AN| = |NC| = y
|BC| = 2y - 2x = 2(y - x)
|MN| = y - x
Therefore |BC| = 2|MN|
2)|AM| = |MB| = x
|AN| = |NC| = y

|BC| = 2y - 2x = 2(y - x)
|MN| = y - x
Therefore |BC| = 2|MN|

Hello ! (<span>I attached a picture of the drawing)</span>

<span>First, we draw a line with 3 points B,A,C in this order.Then </span><span>we will note the middle of AB with M and also the middle of AC with N.
</span>
<span></span><span>We can notice that BC = AB + AC
</span>
<span>M - the middle of AB ⇒ AM=MB=AB/2</span>
<span>N - the middle of AC ⇒ AN=NC=AC/2
</span>

<span>We can write MN as AM+AN , which means AB/2 + AC/2 . We can also write AB as BC-AC , so we will have :
</span>
<span>MN = AB/2 + AC/2</span>
<span>MN = (BC-AC)/2 + AC/2</span>
<span>MN = BC/2 - AC/2 + AC/2 ( AC/2 with -AC/2 are reduced)</span>
MN = BC/2    or    BC = 2·MN

Match each system of equations to its graph. y = 2x + 1 y = x + 2 y = 3x y = x + 3 y = 2x − 2 y = x − 2 y = 2x + 3 y = x + 5 y =
GalinKa [24]

The matchup are:

  • (1st picture): y=2x+3 and y=x+5
  • (2nd picture): y=4x+2 and y =3x+2
  • (3rd picture): y=2x+1 and y =x+2
  • (4th picture): 3x and x+3

<h3>What does the graph of an equation shows?</h3>

The graph of the linear equation is known to be one that often brings or  set the  points that can be found on the coordinate plane and it is one that shows all the solutions to the equation.

Note that when  all variables stands for real numbers, a person can be able to use graph to show the equation and this is often done through plotting the points to show a pattern and then link up the points to have all the points.

From the above, the pictures that have all the points as shown on the graph are:

  • (1st picture): y=2x+3 and y=x+5
  • (2nd picture): y=4x+2 and y =3x+2
  • (3rd picture): y=2x+1 and y =x+2
  • (4th picture): 3x and x+3
