<em>Hello There!!</em>
Let us call X the equal distances GH = HI = IJ
GH = X
HI = X
IJ = X
Note that HJ = HI + IJ, so
HJ = X + X
10 = 2X
X = 5
Well, We're looking at figure we can conclude that:
GJ + JK = GK
GJ = GH + HI + IJ
GJ = 15
GJ + JK = GK
15 + JK = 24
JK = 9
GH = X = 5
HI = X = 5
IJ = X = 5
JK = 9


Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
JK intercept line XY at the midpoint. This means that these points are all equidistant from the midpoint. Due to this, J and K are both an equal distance from M. So is X and Y.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine if x = 6 is a solution, substitute x = 6 into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then it is a solution.
2(6) - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7 ≠ 1
Then x = 6 is not a solution of the equation since a false statement results after replacing x with 6 (B)
Well, there are different ways to do this if you are really familiar with fractions, but "officially" :P
1) convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.
rule: a b/c = (ac+b)/c
2) make all fractions have a common denominator...
a/b+c/d
(a/b)(d/d)+(c/d)(b/b)
(ad/bd)+(cb/bd)
3)
The simplify your final answer with greatest common denominator or convert back to mixed number if needed...
