If B is the midpoint of AC, that means that the distances from A to B and B to C are the same. The distance from A to B is 8x + 4, and the distance from B to C is 10x - 6, so we can set these two equivalent:
8x + 4 = 10x - 6
Solving for x:
4 = 2x - 6 (subtract 8x from both sides)
10 = 2x (add 6 to both sides)
5 = x (divide both sides by 2)
So, x = 5, which is the second option given.
The answer to this equation is y=-8x-19
I hope this helps!!!!!!!!
Z = -2/3a
divide by -2/3 on both sides
a = z divided by -2/3
a = -3/2z
divide the points by the multiplier 1.9
so 3.8 /1.9 =2
the base score was 2.0
Answer: Choice B
A net is shown with a pentagon in the middle and 5 identical triangles on the 5 sides of the pentagon
The pentagon forms the base of the pentagonal pyramid. Each lateral side is a triangle that meets at the very top of the pyramid. The base stays on the floor while the sides are folded up.
---------------------------
There are other possible net configurations to form a pentagonal pyramid, but the other answer choices do not make a pentagonal pyramid.
- Choice A produces a square pyramid.
- Choice C makes a triangular pyramid (aka tetrahedron).
- Choice D makes a hexagonal pyramid.
So we can rule choices A, C and D out.
