Answer:

HJ = 8  JE = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that H is the midpoint of GE and J is the midpoint of FE. According to the midpoint theorem the line segment connecting the midpoint of two sides is parallel to the three side and its length is half of the third side. since JH is connecting the midpoints.

HJ= 1/2 (GF)

x + 3 = 1/2 (4x - 4)

x + 3 = 2x - 2

x = 5

^ Thus meaning the value of x is 5.

Now you just fill into your equations:

HJ = x + 3 = (5)  + 3 = 8

JE = x - 1 = (5) - 1 = 4

Therefore, HJ = 8; JE = 4.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The only non-zero fixed point is:  x = 9/A.

The Step-by-step explanation:

A fixed point of a function is a points that is mapped to itself by the function; g(x) = x. Therefore, in order to find the fixed point of the given function we need to solve the following equation:

g(x) = x

x(10 - Ax) = x

10x - Ax² = x

10x - x -Ax² = 0

9x - Ax² = 0

Ax² - 9x = 0

The solutions of this second order equation are:

x = 0 and x = 9/A.

Since we are only asked for the non-zero fixed points, the solution is: 9/A.
