The two values are positive 9 and negative 9
3x+5x-12=180
8x=180+12
8x=192
x=192/8
x=24
angle 1 = 5x-12
=5(24)-12
=120-12
=108
angle 2= 3x =3*24=72
angle 1 = angle 9
angle 9= 108
You would equal the equations together then solve for a variable.
-4x - 3 = -2x + 1
-4x + 2x = 1 + 3
-2x = 4
—— —-
-2 -2
x = -2
then take that x value and substitute it into any one of the equations.
Equation #1
y = -4(-2) -3
= 8 - 3
= 5
Equation #2
y = -2(-2) + 1
= 4 + 1
= 5
I think you have to list all of the temperatures in order from least to greatest during the first week (-31, -29, -9, -8, 3, 4, 6) in which case the median would be -8.
I hope this helps you and if you know the answer is wrong please let me know in the comments and I will take another look at the question to see if I can figure out the correct answer.
Answer:
20 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ S is the centroid of ΔNLM
∴ S divides NG at ratio 1 : 2 from the base
∴SQ = 1/2 NS
∴3x - 5 = 1/2 (4x)
∴3x - 5 = 2x
∴3x - 2x = 5
∴x = 5
∴ NS = 4 × 5 = 20 cm
