M is the midpoint of the segment. Find the length of XM.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lelechka [254]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x=2 and XM=11

Step-by-step explanation:

because M is the midpoint of the line, you know that both XM and ZM are equal and you know an expression for the lengths of both of these.

set these expressions equal and solve:

4x+3=3x+5 so by subtracting the 3x from the right side, moving it over to the left and subtracting 3 from the left side to move it over to the right, you get:

x=2

then to find XM, plug in this value of x to get XM=11

4(2)+3=11

Suppose you and your 4 friends (5 people) are dressing up as the 6 main characters of the first Avengers movie: Iron Man, Hulk,
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

720

Step-by-step explanation:

If every person has to choose a different character, the first person to choose a character has 6 options, the second has 5, the third has 4, the fourth has 3, and the last person has only two options. Therefore, the total number of ways you can do this if all 5 people dress up as a different character is:

n=6*5*4*3*2\\n=720

There are 720 ways.

On a map, 1 inch equals 25 miles.Two cities are 3 inches apart on the map.What is the actual distance between the cities?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the scale on the map, which is that 1 inch is 25 miles in real life. We can write that as a ratio of 1 inch: 25 miles. Now say we have two inches, then we have 50 miles because we add on another 25 miles, then we do that again and we get to 75 miles.

Another way to think about it (more complicated):

you can represent ratios as a fraction

so we do 1/25=3/x

To find x, we can do (25*3)/1 which equals 75, if you don't know what I did there then you don't know, sorry!

you can also do it in a different way

same scenario though

you represent it as a fraction

and do 1/25=3/x. We see that the ratio from 1 to 3 is multiplied by 3 so that means the ratio from 25 to x is also going to be multiplied by 3, and 25 multiplied by 3 is 75.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

How do i write y = x -4 in a x and y chart/table?
IrinaK [193]
Okay well it kept saying that I for some reason was not using appropriate words so my long response got deleted.

tldr; we can treat this like a box that we put something into (x) and we get something back from it (y).

We can then take this data we get and put it in a table.  This is useful for finding patterns.

I will post a picture of what a table may look like.

Hope this Helps!
