Considering the situation described in the problem, the length of segment AD is of: 17 units.
<h3>How to find the length of segment AD?</h3>
From the situation described in the problem, segment AD is divided into three parts:
Then, the length of segment AD is:
AD = AB + BC + CD.
We have that AC = 9, hence:
AB + BC = 9.
We also have that BD = 10, then:
BC + CD = 10.
Since BC = 2, we have that:
- AB + BC = 9 -> AB + 2 = 9 -> AB = 7.
- BC + CD = 10 -> 2 + CD = 10 -> CD = 8.
Then the length of segment AD is given as follows:
AD = AB + BC + CD = 7 + 2 + 8 = 17.

Answer:
x = - 3
y = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the second equation. Switch
3y = 2x Divide by 3
3y/3 = 2x/3
y = 2x/3
Now go to the first equation. Put the value for y in the first equation.
x - 3(2x/3) = 3 Cancel the 3s on the left.
x - 2x = 3 Combine
-x = 3 Multiply by -1
-1(-x) = 3(-1)
x = - 3
Now go back to the original equation I have called the second equation
2x = 3y
2(-3) = 3y Put in - 3 for x
- 6 = 3y Divide by 3
-6 / 3 = y
y = - 2
I believe this question is referring to purchasing a discount on a loan's interest rate by putting more towards closing costs. For mortgages, sometimes they will allow you to "buy" a smaller interest rate. For example:
<span>Loan A has an interest rate of 4.5% and no closing costs. </span>
<span>Loan B has an interest rate of 4.375%, but has $1000 in closing costs. </span>
<span>Normally, Loan A would be the better choice if you plan on keeping the home short term, but Loan B would be more beneficial for keeping the loan long-term. I don't really care to spend the time that is necessary to come up with an actual scenario, but I hope that helps enough for you to understand the question.</span>
