<u>Statement </u> <u>Reason</u>
1. AB = x + 16 1. Given
BC = 4x + 11
AC = 77
2. AB + BC = AC 2. Segment Addition Postulate
3. x + 16 + 4x + 11 = 77 3. Substitution Property
4. 5x + 27 = 77 4. Simplification <em>(added like terms)</em>
5. 5x = 50 5. Subtraction Property of Equality
6. x = 10 6. Division Property of Equality
7. AB = 10 + 16 7. Substitution Property
8. AB = 26 8. Simplification <em>(added like terms)</em>
Answer:
<h2>x = 5</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: It is -62
Step-by-step explanation: It is -62 because if you find the absolute value it is always negetive .
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
It is known that,
<em>'Vertical stretch, stretches the function up and down towards the y-axis'.</em>
The general form of vertical stretch is given by 'kf(x)', where k>1 is the factor by which function is stretched.
As, we have the function
which is stretched by a factor of 4.
Thus, the new function will be
.
Hence, the equation for the vertical stretch is
.
Total distance covered = 5 x 30 = 150 miles
Angle of travel with respect to south pole = 180 - 164°56' = 15°4'
Let the distance southwards covered be x, then
cos 15°4' = x/150
Thus, x = 150 cos 15°4' = 144.84
Therefore, the distance covered southwards = 145 miles to the nearest mile.
