In the diagram below B is the midpoint of AC if AB equals 2X and BC equals X squared -24 find the value of X and the length of A
C
2 answers:
Answer:
B is the midpoint, so AB = BC; solve for x, which is 4. Then substitute 4 into 3x+2 (which is DE) and get 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 6
AC = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint divides the segment into two congruent parts.
AB = BC
BC -AB = 0
x^2 -24 -2x = 0
(x -1)^2 = 25 . . . . . . add 25, write as a square
x = 1 +√25 = 6 . . . . only the positive solution is of interest.
AC = 2(AB) = 2(2x) = 4(6) = 24
The value of X is 6, and the length of AC is 24 units.

In mixed number form its 97 1/5
Marginal profit, P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = x³ - 5x² + 7x + 10
x³ - 5x² + 7x + 10 = 0
If you solve it, you get x = -0.839 where P(x) is zero
