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:
Step-by-step explanation:
A fraction can be found be taking the current amount over the total amount:
Since Darlene has only typed 23 pages out of 59, her fraction is 23 over 59. Fractions must always be in simplest form, which means that both the numerator and denominator can no longer be divided by the same factor. Since the numbers 23 and 59 are both prime and have no other factors other than 1 and themselves, the fraction 23/59 is in simplest form.
Answer:
Mochi
Step-by-step explanation:
Mochi
Each week theres a increase of 4 in Mochi's weight. So you will add 4 twice to get to the 5th week.
4th week : 17
5th week : 21
Kappa
In 4 weeks Kappa weighed 14, which is less that Mochi at the pace Kappa is going at.
on the 3rd week Kappa weighed 11
and 2nd week Kappa weighed 5
and 1st week Kappa weighed 3
Looking at the graph, we can give a rough estimate on the 5th week it's going to be 16 or 17 either way making Mochi heavier.
Answer:
36 stickers
Step-by-step explanation:
7 erasers in each bag
7 x 3 bags = 21 erasers total
57 - 21 =36
Equation:
Total items = 7x + 12y
