Answer:

DE = 5

BC = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔAED is a right triangle with legs of 4 and 6/2 = 3

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find DE

4^{2}  + 3^{2} = DE^{2}

16 + 6 = 25 = DE^{2}

DE = 5

The midsegment of a triangle is 1/2 the length of the corresponding side.

Therefore, BC = 2 DE = 2(5) = 10 = BC

Write the equation of a line that has a slope of -4 and goes through (-2,7).
Anni [7]

Answer:

y = -4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is given as:

y = mx + b

Where

m is the slope

and

b is the y-intercept (y-axis cutting point)

Since we know slope is -4, we can write:

y= mx + b

y = -4x+ b

Given the point (-2,7) , we can say:

x = -2

and

y = 7

Plugging these 2 values, we can solve for b:

y = -4x + b

7 = -4(-2) + b

7 = 8 + b

b = 7 - 8

b = -1

Now, we have the equation:

y = -4x - 1

Answer:

x  <  − 5

The notation would be ( − ∞ ,  − 5 )

On the graph, you would put an open dot on -5 and an arrow continuing down it

Juan and Franco collect baseball cards. Juan has baseball cards. Franco has 18 fewer baseball cards than Juan. Together they hav
horsena [70]

Answer:

Franco has 66 baseball cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of baseball cards that Franco has.

y is the number of baseball cards that Juan has.

Franco has 18 fewer baseball cards than Juan.

This means that:

x = y - 18

Also:

y = x + 18

Together they have 150 baseball cards.

This means that:

x + y = 150

Since y = x + 18

x + x + 18 = 150

2x = 132

x = \frac{132}{2}

x = 66

Franco has 66 baseball cards.
