Question

Please help me I’m confused

Answer 1

A midpoint is a point that divides a given line into two equal halves.The answers to the questions are:

1. BC = 89

b. AB = 45

c. AC = 44

2. The coordinate of I is 2.5

3. J = 19

4. MQ = 32

5. NO = 13

6. NO = 23

b. MN = 25

A line segment can be divided into different fractions. Where the point that divides the line segment into equal parts is the midpoint. however, number line is a system that shows the location or positions of all directed numbers.

The given questions can be solved as follows:

1. Given that point A is between BC and AB = 4x -3, BC = 7x + 5, AC = 5x - 16

But,

BC = AB + AC

7x + 5 = (4x -3) + (5x - 16)

          = 9x - 19

7x + 5 = 9x - 19

19 + 5 = 9x - 7x

24 = 2x

x = $\frac{24}{2}$

x = 12

So that;

a. BC = 7x + 5

         = 7(12) + 5

BC = 89

The value of BC is 89.

b. AB = 4x -3

         = 4(12) - 3

AB = 45

Thus AB has a value of 45.

c.  AC = 5x - 16

          = 5(12) -16

 AC = 44

The value of AC is 44.

2. Given that H is the mid point of GI, and G = 8, I = -3.

Then;

I = 2.5

The coordinate of I is 2.5

3. A midpoint is a point that divides a line segment in to two equal halves. Given that J is the midpoint of KL. KL = 38

J = $\frac{KL}{2}$

  = $\frac{38}{2}$

J = 19

The value of the midpoint J is 19.

4. It can be deduced from the conditions given in the question that:

  MQ = MN + NO + OP + PQ

          = 8 + 8 + 16      (NB: OP + PQ = 16)

MQ = 32

Thus, value of MQ is 32.

5. Since P is the mid point of NQ, and OP = 11, OQ = 35

 Then;

PQ  = OQ - OP

      = 35 - 11

PQ = 24

Since, PQ = NP =24

Then;

NO = NP - OP

      = 24 - 11

NO = 13

NO has a length of 13.

6. NO = 2y + 11, OP = 3y - 2, NP = 6y + 3 and MP = 64.

But,

NO + OP = NP

(2y + 11) + (3y - 2) = 6y + 3

5y + 9 = 6y + 3

9 - 3 = 6y - 5y

y = 6

So that;

a. NO = 2y + 11

          = 2(6) + 11

NO = 23

Here, the value of NO is 23.

b. MN = MP - NP

But,

NP = 6y + 3

     = 6(6) + 3

NP = 39

Then;

MN = 64 - 39

MN = 25

So that MN has a value of 25.
