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.
Answer:
x = 20 but see below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark.
This is not well enough marked to know whether D = A or whether you have to do some algebra to find the relationship between A and D. So I will assume A = D and then I'll solve it so you have to manipulate A and D.
A = D
3x - 10 = 2x + 10 Add 10 to both sides
3x - 10 + 10 = 2x + 10 + 10 Cancel
3x = 2x + 20 Subtract 2x from both sides
3x-2x=2x-2x + 20
x = 20
A = E
If A = E then to find x you have to add 3 angles together.
E + D + 45 = 180 Add the three angles of the triangle
E + D = 180 - 45 Subtract 45 from both sides
E + D = 135 Substitute for D and E
3x - 10 + 2x + 10 = 135 Combine like terms
5x = 135 Divide by 5
x = 135 / 5
x = 27
Answer
I'd go with the first one.
<span>Yes it is true that a continuous function that is never zero on an interval never changes sign on that interval. This is because of ever important Intermediate Value Theorem.</span>
i think the answer would be C
I believe it’s a negative slope
