We know the CE = 10x + 18 and DE = 7x - 1 and D is the midpoint of CE
⇒ CE = 2 * DE
⇒ 10x + 18 = 2 * (7x - 1)
⇒ 10x + 18 = 14x - 2
⇒ -4x = -20
⇒ x = 5
Now we also know that BC = 9x - 3 and AC = CE = 10x + 18
⇒ AB = AC - BC
⇒ AB = 10x + 18 - (9x - 3)
⇒ AB = x + 21
Substituting the value of x,
⇒ AB = 5 + 21
⇒ AB = 26
Hence, the value of AB is 26 units.
Equation of the line in slope intercept form is
y = 1/4 * x + 5. Slope is 1/4. Intercept is 5.
If x= 4, y = (1/4)*4 + 5 = 6.
The point (4,6) lies on the line.
Equation of the line in point slope form is
(y - y1)= m * (x - x1) where m is slope & (x1,y1) is point on the line.
Substituting slope m= 1/4 & point (4,6),
Equation of the line in point-slope form is:
(y - 6) = 1/4 * (x - 4).
