Answer:

AD= 15

AB=30

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Point D bisect the line segment AB

Hence AD = DB

AD= 4x-1

BD=9x-21

Hence

4x-1=9x-21

adding 21 on both sides and subtracting 4x from both sides

4x-4x-1+21=9x-4x-21+21

-1+21=5x

5x=20

dividing both sides by x we get

x=4

Hence

AD = 4x-1

= 4(4)-1= 16-1=15

AD= 15

AB = 2 x AD

= 2 x 15

= 30

What is an equivalent form of 14(p + 6) − 10(2q + 5)?

aalyn [17]

The equivalent form of 14(p + 6) − 10(2q + 5) is 14p − 20q + 34.

<h3>What is mathematical expansion?</h3>

An mathematical expansion occurs when a mathematical object is been scaled using a scale factor that is greater in absolute value than one.

14(p + 6) − 10(2q + 5)

If we open the bracket, we have

14p − 20q + 34

Therefore option D is correct.
