Answer:

<em>12/15 acres of land </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total measure of land = 2 2/5acres

Total brothers = 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = Total measure of land/Total brother

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = (2 2/5)/3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 2 2/5 ÷ 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/5 ÷ 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/5 * 1/3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/15

<em>Hence each brother will receive 12/15 acres of land </em>

Answer:

x = 10, AB = 57

Step-by-step explanation:

In a trapezoid, the length of the median is one-half the sum of the lengths of the bases. From this, we have:

\frac{1}{2} (5x + 7 + 8x - 11) = 63

13x - 4 = 126

13x = 130

x = 10

5(10) + 7 = 50 + 7 = 57

Which piece wise function is graphed below
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is how to approach the problem:

We see that all our restrictions for all four answer choices are relatively the same with a couple of changes here and there.
One way to eliminate choices would be to look at which restrictions don't match the graph.

At x<-5, there is a linear function that does have a -2 slope and will intersect the x axis at -7. The line ends with an open circle, so any answer choice with a linear restriction of x less than or equal to -5 is wrong. This cancels out choices C and D.

Now we have two choices left.

For the quadratic in the middle, the vertex is at (-2,6) and the vertex is a maximum, meaning our graph needs to have a negative sign in front of the highest degree term. In our case, none of our quadratics left are in standard form, and instead are in vertex form.

Vertext form is f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k.

h being the x-coordinate of the vertex and k being the y-coordinate.

We know that the opposite of h will be the actual x-coordinate of the vertex, so if our vertex is -2, we will see x+2 inside the parenthesis. This leaves option A as the only correct choice.
