Answer:

GF = 16.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If G is the circumcenter of triangle ABC, AG = 6x + 1, GC = 9x – 11, and BC = 38, find GF.

Step 1

We find x

AG = GC

6x + 1 =9x - 11

Collect like terms

1 + 11 = 9x - 6x

12 = 3x

x = 12/3

x = 4

Step 2

We solve for AG

GC = 9x + 11

GC = 9(4) + 11

GC = 36 + 11

GC = 25

Step 3

Solving for GF, using Pythagoras Theorem

GF² + BG² = GC²

GF² = GC² - BG²

GF = √GC² - BG²

GF = √25² - 19²

GF = √264

GF = 16.248076809

GF = 16.25

Answer:

9 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of tickets

let y = the total she spends

So y = 5 + 8 + 0.75x

If the max she can spend is 20, set y = 20 and solve for x:

5 + 8 + 0.75x = 20

13 + 0.75x = 20

0.75x = 20 - 13

0.75x = 7

x = 7 ÷ 0.75 = 9.333333333

Therefore, the max number of tickets that can be bough is 9

Welcome to the era of LeBron. If you thought he was doing the game a disservice by being a sore loser and egomaniac, you haven’t seen anything yet. It wasn’t enough that he decided to become a pariah, he and his group of cronies have decided they want to ruin the NBA.

How? By systematically turning every superstar in the NBA into LeBron James. They are trying to turn them into spoiled, delusional, lying, quitting cowards.

Two of the biggest stories this offseason have been the drama in Denver and New Orleans. Both players, for whatever reasons, have decided that they no longer want to be the cornerstone of a franchise. Before the summer of Lebron, neither had really been asking to get out of their situations. So what is the common thread here? Well, both are represented by agent Leon Rose. Who else is represented by Rose? Why Mr. James, of course.
