BD = 2x-4

But it's also BE - CE + CD

BE is 3x-1

CE is 2x-3

CD is 2

BD = 3x-1 -(2x-3) +2

simplified

BD = 1x +4

since BD = BD (obviously), we can also say that the righthand sides of the two equation must be equal

2x -4 = 1x +4

let's solve for x and that put it into either of the 2 equations.

2x -4 = 1x +4

subtract 1x on both sides

x -4 = 4

add 4 on both sides

x = 8

substitute x for its value in 2x -4 = 1x +4

(this way we double check BD in two expressions at once. the equation should come out true, meaning same value for BD in each expression. both sides should be equal).

2*8 -4 = 1*8 +4

12 = 12

seems true

BD is safely 12

30 + (1/6)^-2 - (-52) What is the value? Is 62 correct?

slava [35]

Answer:

No, the value is 118

Step-by-step explanation:

30+( 1/ 6 )^−2−(−52)

= 30+36−(−52)

= 66−(−52)

= 118

Edward is collecting data on the average length of lizards from head to tail for a particular generation. Initially, the average

Zina [86]

Answer:

The general form of a natural logarithmic function is f(x)=a In(x-h) +k. Since the initial average length of the lizards was 20 centimeters, one possible point (h+1,k) through which the function passes is (0,20).

In this case, h= -1 since h +1 = 0 and k = 20.

It follows that x - h = (-1) = x + 1.

So, the function takes the form f(x) = a In(x + 1) +20.

The average length of the lizards after 2 years is 22.197. So f(2) =22.197. We substitute this value into the function

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) = a In(2 +1) +20

22.197 = a In(3) + 20

$\frac{2.197}{1.099}$ ≈ a
