DB is a median (given). It goes from vertex point D to midpoint B.
The point B is the midpoint of segment AC. So B cuts AC into two equal halves: AB and AC
Meaning AB = AC
AC = AB+BC ... segment addition postulate
AC = AB+AB ... substitution; replace BC with AB (valid because AB = AC)
AC = 2*AB
2*AB = AC
2*AB = 50 ... substitution; replace AC with 50
2*AB/2 = 50/2 ... divide both sides by 2
AB = 25 which is the answer

Answer:
3.333
C = 3.3333g
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the relation : C = rg
C = Total cost of gasoline
g = Number of gallons of gasoline used
r = constant of proportionality
Picking any point on the graph :
At cost, c = $30
Number of gallons of gasoline used, g = 9
Putting the values into our equation :
C = rg
$30 = r * 9
30 = 9r
Divide both sides by 9
30/9 = 9r / 9
3.333 = r
Hence, constant of proportionality, r = 3.333
