Part 1) Finding x

Note the double tickmarks for segments XY and YZ. This indicates the segments are the same length, which leads to point Y being the midpoint of segment XZ.

Therefore, XZ is twice as long as XY

XZ = 2*( XY )

XZ = 2*( 2x-1 )

XZ = 4x - 2

We also know that XZ = 2(3x-4) = 6x-8. Let's equate 4x-2 and 6x-8 and solve for x

6x-8 = 4x-2

6x-4x = -2+8

2x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 3

<h3>Answer is 3</h3>

=====================================

Part 2) Finding the length of YZ

The resut of part 1 (x = 3) is plugged into the equation for XY to get

XY = 2*x-1

XY = 2*3-1

XY = 6-1

XY = 5

Segment XY is 5 units long. So is segment YZ as these two segments are the same length (aka congruent).

<h3>Answer: 5</h3>

=====================================

Part 3) Finding the length of segment XZ

The answer from the previous part was 5. This doules to 5*2 = 10

-----

A longer way to get the same answer is to plug x = 3 into the XZ equation and we get...

XZ = 2*(3x-4)

XZ = 2*(3*3-4)

XZ = 2*(9-4)

XZ = 2*5

XZ = 10

and we get the same answer

<h3>Answer: 10</h3>

Will mark brainliest. Which expression is equivalent to -1/4x + 1/2 ?
Monica [59]
C. 

If you properly distribute C it will give you the above equation. 

1/4 * -x = -1/4x

AND

1/4 * 2 = 1/2

Identify the factors of the terms of the expression. <br>3). 5+6a+11b<br>4). 13m-2n​
xeze [42]

Answer:

factors are 5, 6, a, 11, b

Step-by-step explanation:

3)   5 + 6a + 11b

<u>Algebraic expressions: 5 + 6a + 11b </u>

Are combinations of numbers, variables, and at least one arithmetic.

<u>Term are: 5, 6a, 11b</u>

Each expression is made up of terms. A term can be a signed number, a variable, or a constant multiplied by a variable(s).

<u>Factors are: 5, 6, a, 11, b </u>

Something which is multiplied by something else. A factor can be a variable, number,  a term, or a longer expression.

<u>Coefficient: 6, 11 </u>

The numerical factor of a multiplication expression that contains a variable.

 

<u>Constant: 5 </u>

A number that cannot change its value.

4).  13m-2n​ (note: it applies as above)

What is the solution of the system of equations? 6x-2y = 4 -9x+3y = 12
katrin2010 [14]

We will have the following:

First, we solve both equations for y, that is:

6x-2y=4\Rightarrow-2y=-6x+4\Rightarrow y=3x-2

&

-9x+3y=12\Rightarrow3y=9x+12\Rightarrow y=3x+4

From this we can see that they are parallel lines, that do not share any common points, so there is no solution for the system.
