Answer:

The general plan is to find BM and from that CM. You need 2 equations to do that.

Step One

Set up the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = (4*sqrt(2) ) ^ 2 = 32

BM^2 + CM^2 = 5^2 = 25

Step Two

Subtract the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2  = 32

BM^2 + CM^2         = 25

(7 - BM)^2 - BM^2 = 7               (3)

Step three

Expand the left side of the new equation labeled (3)

49 - 14BM + BM^2 - BM^2 = 7    

Step 4

Simplify And Solve

49 - 14BM = 7              Subtract 49 from both sides.

-49 - 14BM = 7 - 49

- 14BM = - 42              Divide by - 14

BM = -42 / - 14

BM = 3

Step  Five

Find CM

CM^2 + BM^2 = 5^2

CM^2 + 3^2 = 5^2        Subtract 3^2 from both sides.

CM^2 = 25 - 9            

CM^2 = 16                     Take the square root of both sides.        

sqrt(CM^2) = sqrt(16)

CM = 4    < Answer

Nine less than a number is no more than 8 and is no less than 3
frozen [14]

9 - x < 8 => -x < 8 - 9 => -x < -1 => x > 1

9 - x > 3 => -x > 3 -9 => -x > -6 => x < 6

So the number is between 1 and 6, notation 1 < x < 6
