Answer:

  • x = 10
  • AB = 3
  • BC = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

If B lies between A and C on a line segment, then ...

  AB +BC = AC

  (2x -17) +(x +1) = 14

  3x = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 16, collect terms

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  AB = 2(10)-17 = 3

 BC = 10+1 = 11

Answer:

Equation: y = \frac{7}{4} x

21/2 cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 7 as y and 4 as x

7 = 4k

Find k

k = 7/4

Then plug k into th equation

y = 7/4 x

For the second part of the question:

Plug in x which is 6 into the bolded equation.

y = (7/4)(6) = 42/4 = 21/2 (simplified form)

PLEASE HELP MEEE ASAP
lys-0071 [83]

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all, g(x) has only negative functional result values (y) except for 0.

and a square is always positive.

so, the only possible right answers are the ones that include a minus ("-") sign.

the graph shows us that g(x) goes through the points (1, -3) and (-1, -3).

so, which equation turns an x = 1 into an y = -3 ?

therefore, the right answer must be D.

g(x) = -3x²

it works for both points :

-3 = -3×1² = -3 correct

-3 = -3×(-1)² = -3×1 = -3 correct
