Using the segment addition postulate, find the value of x.


HI = 6x + 8

IJ = 2x - 4

HJ = 124

A) 15

B) 16

C) 9



HINT THAT I WAS GIVEN: The segment addition postulate states that the lengths of the pieces of a segment will add up to the length of the entire segment.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

HI and IJ are both segments in the line HJ so HI and IJ combined equal the total length of HJ. This means we can write an equation using HI and IJ and setting them equal to HJ.

6x + 8 + 2x - 4 = 124

next step is to combine like terms:

8x + 4 = 124

then, subtract 4 from both sides.

8x + 4 = 124

     -4       -4

8x = 120

finally, divide both sides by 8.

8x/8 = 120/8

x = 15

since it is equal to x, 15 is your solution!

LCM= 4*3=12

11/3 * 4/4 = 44/12

11/4 * 3/3 = 33/12

11/3 - 11/4

44/12-33/12= 11/12

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simply convert the fractions into an improper fraction.

1 1/3= 4/3

1 1/4= 5/4

Then make conevrt it so the denominator  is the same. In this case, the denominatorwould be 12.

4/3= 16/12

5/4=  15/12

Finally subtract regularly.

16/12-15/12= 1/12

6x – 5 = 13 – 3х solve

Answers

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

6x−5=13−3x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6x−5=13−3x

6x+−5=13+−3x

6x−5=−3x+13

Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.

6x−5+3x=−3x+13+3x

9x−5=13

Step 3: Add 5 to both sides.

9x−5+5=13+5

9x=18

Step 4: Divide both sides by 9.

[tex]\frac{9x}{9}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{18}{9}[/tex]

x = 2

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by adding 3x to 6x, this eliminates the variables on the right side of the equation and leave you with 9x-5=13. From here, add five to both sides of the equation, which cancels out on the left side and leads you to have 18 on the right side. Remember that you want to have a lone variable, so you take the current equation of 9x=18 and divide both sides by 9, which cancels out on the left side and leaves the right side as 2. Therefore, x=2.

help factor left side please!!
y’all i didn’t sleep at all last night and i cannot remember how to factor the first half of the equation help me out asap please guys

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)

Two numbers that work are -6 and +1

-6 x +1 = -6

-6 + -1 = -5

2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.

3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0

I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.

3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'

3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0

4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.

(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0

5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.

3x + 1 = 0              x-2 = 0

3x = -1                   x = 2

x = -1/3

6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by separating (not factoring) -5x.  For example, we might get {-2x, - 3x} (note how these combine to produce -5x).  Might have to try several combinations to find the right one.

Then 3x^2 -5x -2=0 could possibly be x(3x - 2) - (3x - 2), or

                                                                x(3x - 2) - 1(3x - 2).

Notice how the factor (3x - 2) shows up twice.  If we factor out (3x - 2) we are left with (x - 1).  We check these results by multiplying (3x - 2) and (x - 1) together, so we can be sure that the result is the original 3x^2 -5x -2=0.

(3x - 2)(x - 1) = 3x^2 - 3x - 2x + 1 results in 3x^2 - 5x + 2.  Unfortunately, the sign of that 2 is incorrect; we'd hoped for -2, not +2.

To check this further, I used synthetic division with 1 as divisor; the remainder is -4, which tells us that (x - 1) is not a factor of 3x^2 -5x -2=0.

A cylindrical container of five rubber balls has a height of 30 centimeters and a diameter of 6 centimeters. Each ball in the container has a radius of 3 centimeters. Find the amount of space in the container that is not occupied by rubber balls. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

There is 170 cm³ free space in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cylindrical container: height = 18 cm ; diameter = 6 cm.

3 balls each have a radius of 3 cm.

Volume of a cylinder = π r² h

V = 3.14 * (3cm)² * 18 cm

V = 508.68 cm³

Volume of rubber ball = 4/3  π r³

V = 4/3 * 3.14 * (3cm)³

V = 113.04 cm³

113.04 cm³  * 3 balls = 339.12 cm³

508.68 cm³ - 339.12 cm³ = 169.56 cm³ or 170 cm³

A focus group is made up 12 males and 4 females. Half of the males have college degrees. A member is selected at random from the geoup. What is the probability that the member is a male with a college degree?

Answers

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We first have to find the probability that the person selected is a male and then multiply that by the probability that the male has a college degree.

There are 12 males and 4 females. There are 16 people in total. The probability of selecting a male is:

12/16 = 3/4

Half of the males have a college degree. Therefore, 6 males have a college degree. The probability that a selected male has a college degree is:

6/12 = 1/2

Therefore, the probability that a male is selected and that the male has a college degree is:

3/4 * 1/2 = 3/8


1) 2x – y = 1
2x +2y = 10


2) 5x – y =15

x + y = -3


please do both of these with explanation!!

Answers

Answer:

1) (2, 3)

2) (2, -5).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x – y = 1

2x +2y = 10   Subtract to eliminate  the 2x:

2x - 2x - y - 2y = 1  - 10

-3y = -9

y = 3.

Plug this into the first equation:

2x - 3 = 1

2x = 4

x = 2.

2)

5x – y =15

x + y = -3     Adding to eliminate y:

5x + x - y + y = 15 + -3

6x = 12

x = 2

Plug this into the first equation:

5(2) - y = 15

-y = 15 - 10 = 5

y = -5.

What are the zeros of the function g(x)=2(x+2)(x-9) located at

Answers

Answer:

x = - 2, x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

g(x) = 2(x + 2)(x - 9)

To find the zeros let g(x) = 0, that is

2(x + 2)(x - 9) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

The zeros of the function g(x)=2(x+2)(x-9) are -2 and 9.

What is the zeros and y-intercept of a function?

Zeros is the Intersection points of the considered function's curve on input axis(usually represented by values of x)

y-intercept = Intersection points of the considered function's curve on output axis. On x-axis, value of y-coordinate is 0, On y-axis, value of x-coordinate is 0.

Thus, if function is y=f(x) then putting y = 0 gives zeros of the function.

And putting x = 0 gives the y-intercept of the function. (if any, for both cases).

Given the function as;

g(x) = 2(x + 2)(x - 9)

To find the zeros let g(x) = 0, that is;

2(x + 2)(x - 9) = 0

Then Equate each factor to zero and solve for x;

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

Hence, the zeros of the function g(x)=2(x+2)(x-9) are -2 and 9.
