Answer:
AB + BC = AC Segment Addition Postulate
(x + 10) + (x + 14) = 22 Substitution
2x + 24 = 22 Simplify (added like terms)
2x = -2 Subtraction Property of Equality
x = -1 Divison Property of Equality
Answer: x = -1

Answer:
The correct answer is "Study of tree rings and associated geology shows that the Earth is more than 12,429 years old"
Step-by-step explanation:
While tress have been growing long enough to prove the earth is more than 12,000 years old, it is not able to prove much longer than that. Luckily geology is able to show is that Earth is over 4.6 billions years old. As a result, the above is the only true statement.
Answer:
x=24
Step-by-step explanation:
8x-13 = 7x+11; (because it's a rectangle)
8x - 7x = 11 + 13; (moving xs to one side, the rest to the other)
x = 24
1) Line should be parallel to y = 3x+6, so slope of this line should be =3.
y=mx +b
y=3x +b
Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-10, 2.5).
2.5 = 3*(-10)+b
b=2.5+30=32.5
y=3x + 32.5
2) The line should be perpendicular to y = -4x -2, so its slope is going to be negative reciprocal m= 1/4.
Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-16, -11).
y=(1/4)x +b
-11=(1/4)*(-16) + b
-11 = -4 +b
b = -7
y=(1/4)x - 7
All real numbers greater than or equal to -8. You can see 3 is a minimum point because at 3 the numbers start to increase again. -8 is the lowest number and the function is increasing as x approaches infinity starting at 3.
