At centroid medians bisect each other in the ratio 2:1

$\\ \sf\longmapsto OC=2(OD)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(3x-2)=5x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6x-4=5x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6x-5x=4$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=4$

Fed [463]

Answer:

$\text{B. }26}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $\overline{PN}$ and $\overline{PQ}$ are equal, we can set them equal to each other:

$7x+5=10x-4,\\9=3x,\\x=3$

Substitute $x=3$ to solve for $\overline{PQ}$ :

$\overline{PQ}=10(3)-4=\boxed{\text{B. }26}}$

Hello!

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

❖ Mai has $4.90 left.

Add $4.35 and $5.25 to get the total amount that she spent:

$4.35 + $5.25 = $9.60

Then subtract to get the amount of money left:

$14.50 - $9.60 = $4.90

Given the function f(x) = -3x2 + 4x + 6, find f(2) and f(3). Choose the statement that is true concerning these two values.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The value of f(2) is larger than the value of f(3).

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = -3x^{2} +4x+6\\f(2) = -3*2^{2} +4*2+6=2\\f(3) = -3*3^{2} +4*3+6=-9\\$
