Answer:
E
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
BH = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The centroid theorem states that the centroid of a triangle is 2/3 of the distance from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
That means that BH is 2/3 of the length BF.
BH = (2/3)(BF)
BH = (2/3)(24)
BH = 16
Answer:
Second choice:


Fifth choice:


Step-by-step explanation:
Let's look at choice 1.


I'm going to subtract 1 on both sides for the first equation giving me
. I will replace the
in the second equation with this substitution from equation 1.

Expand using the distributive property and the identity
:




So this not the desired result.
Let's look at choice 2.


Solve the first equation for
by dividing both sides by 2:
.
Let's plug this into equation 2:



This is the desired result.
Choice 3:


Solve the first equation for
by adding 3 on both sides:
.
Plug into second equation:

Expanding using the distributive property and the earlier identity mentioned to expand the binomial square:



Not the desired result.
Choice 4:


I'm going to solve the bottom equation for
since I don't want to deal with square roots.
Add 3 on both sides:

Divide both sides by 2:

Plug into equation 1:

This is not the desired result because the
variable will be squared now instead of the
variable.
Choice 5:


Solve the first equation for
by subtracting 1 on both sides:
.
Plug into equation 2:

Distribute and use the binomial square identity used earlier:



.
This is the desired result.
