Because G is the centroid of the triangle, therefore AG = 2GF
That is, 5x + 4 = 2(3x - 1)
5x + 4 = 6x - 2
4 + 2 = 6x - 5x
6 = x
Therefore AG = 5*6 + 4 = 34
GF = 3*6 - 1 = 17
A.F = AG + GF = 34 + 17 = 51
Answer: 51

PLEASE I AM ASKING FOR HELP DESPERATELY! Which is NOT a good reason to establish a positive credit history?

otez555 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The purpose of establishing a good credit history is to show that you are able to handle money. The higher your credit score is, the more responsible you are with money.

You can build good credit history by making payments with a credit card and repaying your purchases. It shows that if the bank were to give you a larger sum of money, you would pay it back.

As such, B is incorrect. The purpose of credit relates to purchases. A is obviously correct for this reason. C is correct because banks are likely to put less interest, as interest correlates to the score (lower credit score, higher interest). D is correct because banks allow you to obtain credit cards with better rates if your credit score is high enough.

Employers cannot determine your qualification for a job based on a credit score. Some states even prohibit this. For this reason, B is incorrect.

Solve the following inequality. -4(1 - 5a) > -124

NemiM [27]

Answer:

a>−6

Step-by-step explanation:

−4(1−5a)>−124

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

20a−4>−124

Step 2: Add 4 to both sides.

20a−4+4>−124+4

20a>−120

Step 3: Divide both sides by 20.

20a/20> −120/20

a>−6

Simplify sqrt 244x + sqrt 36x - sqrt 25x

Morgarella [4.7K]

First simplify the square roots: $2 \sqrt{61x}+6 \sqrt{x}-5 \sqrt{x}$
Then simplify the last two terms: $2 \sqrt{61x}+\sqrt{x}$
Since 61 is prime, you can't take a rational root out of it.

a manufacturer is designing a flashlight for the flashlight to admit a focused beam the bull needs to be on the central axis of

Helen [10]

Answer:

y= 1/12(x-0)^2+0

this answer works as an upward parabola

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a veritcal parabola is y=1/4p(x-h)^2+k
(h,k)= coordinates of the vertex of the parabola
p= absolute value of the distance from the vertex to the focus/directrix
In this problem, it is given that the vertex is at the origin (0,0) and the focus (the bulb), is 3 centimeters away from the vertex.
Now, you know the values of the variables. Fill in the values
FROM THE FORMULA: 1/4p turns into 1/12 since p is 3.
(x-h)^2+k turns into (x-0)^2+0, since h and k where the values of the vertex which was 0,0
once all the variables are given values (except x and y) you have made your equation!
The answer is y=1/12(x-0)^2+0

MARK BRAINLIEST! this took forever, and I know this is the right answer since I got a perfect grade when I turned mine in.
