Answer:
D) 54 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Centroid Theorem to solve this problem, which states that the centroid of a triangle is
of the distance from each of the triangle's vertices to the midpoint of the opposite side.
Therefore,
is
of the distance from
to
, since the latter is the midpoint of the side opposite to
. We know this because
belongs to
, so
must be
's midpoint due to the fact that by definition, the centroid of a triangle is the intersection of a triangle's three medians (segments which connect a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the side opposite to it).
We can then write the following equation:

Substituting
into the equation gives us:

Solving for
, we get:

(Multiply both sides of the equation by
to get rid of
's coefficient)
(Simplify)
(Symmetric Property of Equality)
Therefore, the answer is D. Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>
</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>x=-7
</span><span>
</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>
</span>
The answer is (-7.5, -7.5)
