Solve for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The value of x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector Theorem

An angle bisector of a triangle would cut the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

Thus,

\frac{x}{15}=\:\frac{12}{20}

Cross Multiply the expression

\:20\times x=12\times 15

Divide both sides by 20

\frac{20x }{20}=\frac{180}{20}

x=9

Therefore, the value of x = 9

Answer:

A. (3,1)

B. g(x)=|x-3|+6

C. h(x)=-|x-3|-6

Step-by-step explanation:

A. To graph the absolute value function f(x) = |x - 3| + 1, first graph the parent absolute value function y=|x| and then translate it 3 units to the right and 1 unit up (see green graph in attached diagram). The vertex of the function f(x) is at point (3,1).

B.  The function g(x) translates f(x) 5 units up, so its equation is

g(x)=f(x)+5

g(x)=|x-3|+1+5

g(x)=|x-3|+6

Blue graph in attached diagram.

C. The function h(x) reflects g(x) over the x-axis, so the equation of the function h(x) is

h(x)=-g(x)

h(x)=-(|x-3|+6)

h(x)=-|x-3|-6

Red graph in attached diagram.

Is there a even number and a odd number than mutiplys a odd number if so list 3 examples
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Even

Step-by-step explanation:

Well if you have an odd number like 3, 5, 7, 9, and etc multiplied by an even number like 2, 4, 6, 8, and etc you will always get an even number

2 x 3 = 6 which is even 3+3

5 x 4 = 20 which is even 10+10

7 x 6 = 42 which is even 21+21

The sum of all the positive terms in the geometric sequence 54, - 36, 24, - 16, ... is
Annette [7]

Answer:

  B.  97.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence of positive terms is ...

  54, 24, 10 2/3, 4 20/27, ...

This sequence has first term 54 and common ratio 24/54 = 4/9. The sum of the infinite series is ...

  S = a1/(1 -r) = 54/(1 -4/9) = 54(9/5)

  S = 97.2

The sum of the positive terms in the infinite series is 97.2.

50 points! Please help asap! Write the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line AB given endpoints A(3,-3) and B(1,-1)
Elza [17]

Answer:

  • y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AB with coordinates A(3, -3) and B(1, -1)

Perpendicular bisector passes through midpoint of the segment.

<u>Midpoint of AB has coordinates:</u>

  • x = (3 + 1)/2 = 2, y = (-3 - 1)/2 = -2

<u>Slope of AB</u>

  • m = (-1 + 3)/(1 - 3) = 2/-2 = -1

<u>Slope of the perpendicular line is:</u>

  • -1/m = -1/-1 = 1

<u>The equation of the line in point-slope form:</u>

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where m = 1, x₁ = 2, y₁ = -2
  • y - (-2) = 1(x - 2) ⇒ y + 2 = x - 2

<u>Converted into slope-intercept form:</u>

  • y = x - 4
