Answer:

PC = 12 units

AP = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The centroid of a triangle is the intersection of the three medians of the triangle
  • Each median connecting a vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side
  • The centroid divides each median into two parts, which are always in the ratio 2: 1 from the vertex

In ΔACE

∵ P is the centroid of it

∴ P divides CF the ratio 2: 1 from C

∴ PC = 2 PF

∵ PF = 6 units

∴ PC = 2(6)

∴ PC = 12 units

∵ P divides AD at the ratio 2: 1 from A

→ That means AD = 2 + 1 = 3 parts, and AP = \frac{2}{3} AD

∴ AP = \frac{2}{3} AD

∵ AD = 15 units

∴ AP = AP = \frac{2}{3} (15)

∴ AP = 10 units

Help me with my math ASAP!!!!

Answer:

f = 78

g = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find f.

We can use the equation 72 + (f + 30) = 180 to solve for f.

We can then change that equation to 72 + f + 30 = 180, since the Commutative Property of Addition says that you can have any addition in any order.

Now, we can solve the equation.

102 + f = 180\\(102 - 102) + f = 180 - 102\\f = 78

Now that we solved f, we can now solve for g.

Since 25 equals 8g -3, we can solve the equation 8g - 3 = 25.

Here is how you solve it:

8g - 3 = 25\\8g + (-3 + 3) = 25 + 3\\8g = 28\\g = \frac{28}{8}

Since \frac{28}{8} equals 3.5, which is the simplest form, that is the answer.

Hope this helps, and please mark me brainliest! :)

If f(x) and f⁻¹(x) are inverse functions of each other and f(x)=2x+5, what is f⁻¹(8)?
dexar [7]

Answer:

3/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x+5   Finding the inverse:

y = 2x + 5

2x = y - 5

x = (y - 5)/2

So the inverse f-1(x) = (x - 5)/2

and f-1(8) = (8-5)/2

= 3/2.
