May I ask what the ratio is? *Comment it below this post and i'll help you!* <3
Answer:
17. 6
18. 18 (as shown)
19. 10/3 = 3 1/3
20. 20/3 = 6 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
17. For this, you can subtract the given length GB=12 from the length you found for problem 18, BF=18. Doing that tells you FG = 18-12 = 6, as you have marked on the diagram.
19. As with median BF, the point G divides it into two parts that have the ratio 1:2. The distance from G to D is the shorter of the distances, so you have ...
... GD = (1/3) CD = (1/3)·10 = 10/3
... GD = 3 1/3
20. You can subtract GD from CD to get CG, or you can multiply CD by 2/3. The result is the same either way.
... CG = CD -GD = 10 -3 1/3
... CG = 6 2/3

<em>Comment on centroid and median</em>
The centroid (G) divides each median into parts in the ratio 1:2. Hence the shorter of those parts is half the length of the longer one, or 1/3 the total length of the median.
The longer of the parts is double the length of the shorter one, or 2/3 the total length of the median.
Your marking of median BF seems to show an understanding of these relationships. (Total length: 18; length of parts: 6 and 12.)
z = -11
Steps:
8z+12 = 5z-21
Subtract 12 from both sides
8z+12-12 = 5z-21-12
Simplify
8z = 5z-33
Subtract 5z from both sides
8z-5z = 5z-33-5z
Simplify
3z = -33
Divide both sides by 3
3z/3 = -33/3
Simplify
z = -11
Hope this helps you! (:

27/6 because this shows that you are dividing 6 from 27.
Answer:
Symmetry is correspondence of the form and arrangement of elements or parts on opposite sides of a dividing line. imagine that this ractangle is a piece of paper, you need to fold it two times, different ways. in this case when you fold it over the horizontal colored line all colored parts will match, same case when you fold it vertically.
