Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, AM=x+8

or, A=x+8-M......eqn (i)

MB=6x-2

or, B=6x-2-M......eqn (ii)

Now,

from eqn (i) and (ii)

x+8-M=6x-2-M

or, 8+2=6x-x-M+M

or, 10=5x

or, 10÷5=x

therefore, x=2

Again,

MB=6x-2

=6×2-2

=12-2

=10

is it correct

Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Given:
circular merry-go-round that has a diameter of 15 feet.

Find: How much trim does he need to buy to put around the edge of the merry-go-round?

We need to find the circumference of the merry-go-round to get the measurement of the trim needed.

Circumference = π d
π = 3.14
d = diameter = 15 feet

Circumference = 3.14 * 15 feet
Circumference = 47.10 feet.

Mr. Osterhout needs to buy 47.10 feet of trim to put around the circular merry-go-round.

The equation of a line is y=-2.5x+3. Which one of these points lies on this line?
lakkis [162]
D is the correct answer. Since this is an equation, equation means both side are equal. So if you put each point in place of y and x and do the math on the left side, the final result of that side has to be equal to the left one. Only (-2,2) follows this statement aka its a point on this line .
