Question 9
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the ray NM is the segment bisector XY
so
NM divides the segment XY into two equal parts
XM = MY
given
XM = 3x+1
MY = 8x-24
so substituting XM = 3x+1 and MY = 8x-24 in the equation
XM = MY
3x+1 = 8x-24
8x-3x = 1+24
5x = 25
divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 25/5
x = 5
so the value of x = 5
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 3x+1 + 8x-24
= 11x - 23
substituting x = 5
= 11(5) - 23
= 55 - 23
= 32
Therefore,
The length of the segment = 32 units
Question 10)
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the line n is the segment bisector XY
so
The line divides the segment XY into two equal parts at M
XM = MY
given
XM = 5x+8
MY = 9x+12
so substituting XM = 5x+8 and MY = 9x+12 in the equation
XM = MY
5x+8 = 9x+12
9x-5x = 8-12
4x = -4
divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -4/4
x = -1
so the value of x = -1
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 5x+8 + 9x+12
= 14x + 20
substituting x = 1
= 14(-1) + 20
= -14+20
= 6
Therefore,
The length of the segment XY = 6 units
Answer:
3 students are eating lunches other than salads and sandwiches.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you know that there are 18 students in the cafeteria and 1/6 of them are eating salads and 2/3 are eating sandwiches right? So you would have to think about what 1/6 of 18 is so you know how many students are eating salads, and 1/6 of 18 is 3 so there are 3 students eating salads. Now, you have to find out how many students are eating sandwiches, so you need to know what 2/3 of 18 is. 2/3 of 18 is 12 so now you also know that there are 12 students eating sandwiches. Next, you have to add 12 and 3 and you get 15. Since you know that there are 18 students in the cafeteria, you have to subtract 18 by 15, and you should get 3. So 3 students are eating lunches other than salads or sandwiches.
Hope this helps you! :D
Answer:
where is the option??
Step-by-step explanation:
I dont see any options but I can say that -6x is the slope and +7 is the y-intercept
Answer:
Because
Step-by-step explanation:
4 4/10 = 4.4 and 32/10 = 3.2
4.4 is bigger than 3.2 so that's why 4 4/10 is bigger.
It would be: 178.90 * 3.75%
= 178.90 * 0.0375
= 6.71
In short, Sales tax would be $6.71
Hope this helps!
