Answer:
a) The median AD from A to BC has a length of 6.
b) Areas of triangles ABD and ACD are the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) A median is a line that begin in a vertix and end at a midpoint of a side opposite to vertix. As first step the location of the point is determined:



The length of the median AD is calculated by the Pythagorean Theorem:

![AD = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+[0-(-6)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AD%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%284-4%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B0-%28-6%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)

The median AD from A to BC has a length of 6.
b) In order to compare both areas, all lengths must be found with the help of Pythagorean Theorem:

![AB = \sqrt{(3-4)^{2}+[-2-(-6)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%283-4%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B-2-%28-6%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)


![AC = \sqrt{(5-4)^{2}+[2-(-6)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AC%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%285-4%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B2-%28-6%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)


![BC = \sqrt{(5-3)^{2}+[2-(-2)]^{2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=BC%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%285-3%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%5B2-%28-2%29%5D%5E%7B2%7D%7D)

(by the definition of median)



The area of any triangle can be calculated in terms of their side length. Now, equations to determine the areas of triangles ABD and ACD are described below:
, where 
, where 
Finally,








Therefore, areas of triangles ABD and ACD are the same.
A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is the number of 3-point questions and y is the number of 5-point questions, the system shown represents this situation.
x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100
What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?
The test contains 4 three-point questions and 20 five-point questions.
The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.
The test contains 14 three-point questions and 10 five-point questions.
The test contains 20 three-point questions and 8 five-point questions.
Both of them will have the same amount of money in 2 months
Given : Anne buys 600 packets of mints.
Given : Of these 600 packets of mints, 34% are small packets and 40% are large packets.
Total % of small and large packets is (34 + 40) = 74%
It means : The remaining percentage is of the medium packets of mints which were brought by Anne.
% of medium packets brought by Anne : (100 - 74) = 26%


Given : Ben buys 400 packets of mints.


It means : The remaining fraction is of the medium packets of mints which were brought by Ben.




Given : Chas buys 210 small packets of mints.
Given : Number of small packets : number of medium packets = 3 : 4



Total number of medium packets of mints brought by these three shop keepers (Anne, Ben, Chas) are :
(156 + 240 + 280)
676
13 times 4 is 52
9 times 4 is 36 plus the 20 it takes for reservation
So the maximum amount would be 4
