Answer:

The measure of AB is 29

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>If a line is drawn from a vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the opposite side to this vertex and bisects it, then </em><em>the sides joining this vertex are equal in lengths</em>

In Δ ABD

∵ Line AC ⊥ side BD

∵ BC = BD = 15

∴ C is the mid-point of The side BD

∴ Line AC is a perpendicular bisector of side BD

→ By using the rule above

∴ AB = AD

∵ AB = 5x - 11

∵ AD = 3x + 5

→ Equate them

∴ 5x - 11 = 3x + 5

→ Add 11 to both sides

∵ 5x - 11 + 11 = 3x + 5 + 11

∴ 5x = 3x + 16

→ Subtract 3x from both sides

∵ 5x - 3x = 3x - 3x + 16

∴ 2x = 16

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 8

→ Substitute the value x in the expression of side AB

∵ AB = 5(8) - 11

∴ AB = 40 - 11

∴ AB = 29

∴ The measure of AB is 29

Which function is graphed below?
hoa [83]

Option B. y = 3 (one-third) Superscript x is the function that is graphed in this question.

<h3>How to solve the problem</h3>

We have exponential functions to be of the form abˣ

This can be written in the form of f(x) = 3\frac{1}{3} ^x

So it crosses through the point (0, 3).

From the way that the curve passes through the circle, we can see that the it is said to pass through at (0, 3) and approaches y = 0 in quadrant 1

Hence this would put our answer to be y = 3 (one-third) Superscript x

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The real distance from shop to store is 24 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance from the Bake Stars Cafe to the restaurant supply store on map = 3 cm

Also Given:

Scale of the map 1 cm = 8 km

We need to find the real distance from the shop to the store.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Distance from shop to store on map =3 cm

1 cm = 8 km

3 cm = Real distance from shop to store

By using Unitary method we get;

Real distance from shop to store = 8\times3 =24 \ km

Hence The real distance from shop to store is 24 kilometers.
