Answer: 28
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're given information about the parts of a segment and we're asked to find the value of x.
To find the value of x, we can use the <em>segment addition postulate</em>.
Looking at the diagram, it should make since that RS + ST = RT.
So 4x + 3x + 11 = 60 or 7x + 11 = 60.
Subtracting 11 from both sides and solving for x, we get x = 7.
Since RS is 4x, we can substitute a 7 in for x to get 4(7) or 28.
Answer:
(2 x +1) ( x + 1) = 2 x² + 3 x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The steops used to find the product of (2 x + 1) (x + 1) are
=( 2 x )× x + (2 x) × 1 + x + 1
= 2 x² + 2 x + x + 1
= 2 x² + 3 x + 1
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is in the form ...
4p(y -k) = (x -h)^2 . . . . . (h, k) is the vertex; p is the focus-vertex distance
Comparing this to your equation, we see ...
p = 4, (h, k) = (3, 4)
p > 0, so the parabola opens upward. The vertex is on the axis of symmetry. That axis has the equation x=x-coordinate of vertex. This tells you ...
vertex: (3, 4)
axis of symmetry: x = 3
focus: (3, 8) . . . . . 4 units up from vertex
directrix: y = 0 . . . horizontal line 4 units down from vertex
<span>1/2x+3y/4=5 => (1/2)x + (3/4)y = 5
1/5x+3y/2=2 => (1/5)x + (3/2)y = 2
Eliminate the fractional coefficients: Mult. the first equation by 4 and mult. the second equation by 10:
2x + 15y = 20
</span><span>Multiply the 1st equation by -1:
-</span>2x - 3y = -20
2x + 15y = 20
-------------------
12y = 0, so y = 0. Then the first equation becomes 2x + 3(0) = 20, or
x=10.
Solution is (10,0).
