If AC = 52, AB = 8x + 8, and BC = 2x + 4, then the length BC is

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

Since we know what each variable equals, we can write out the equation as shown:

52 = 8X + 8 + 2X + 4

Combining like terms:

52 = 10X + 12

Subtract 12 from both sides:

40 = 10X

Divide by 10:

X = 4

Now that we know X, we can figure out BC

BC = 2(4) + 4

BC = 8 + 4

BC = 12

Therefore BC is 12.

Explain the difference in meaning between 1-3 and -3
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The difference in meaning is that

-3 is a signed value. It lies to the left of zero

+3 is also a signed value, and since it is positive, it lies to the right of zero

|-3| is just the physical distance (left or right) of -3 from zero. Since we live in a physical world, all distances are positive, so its signed value is 3.

Since +3 is also 3 units from zero, |+3| = 3

|-3| = |+3| = 3 since both are three units away from zero.

So, when using absolute values as numbers, rather than distances,

|x| = x if x is not negative

|x| = -x if x is negative

How do you find probability in math?
damaskus [11]
Probability is the likelihood or chance of an event occurring. For example, the probability of flipping a coin and it being heads is ½, because there is 1 way of getting a head and the total number of possible outcomes is 2 (a head or tail).
