Answer:
The measure of segment AC is 36 units
Step-by-step explanation:
- The mid-point divides the segment into two equal parts in length
- B is the mid point of segment AC
- That means B divides segment AC into two equal parts in length
∴ AB = BC
∵ AC = 5x - 9
∵ AB = 2x
- The two parts AB and BC are equal in length
∴ BC = 2x
∵ AC = AB + BC
- Substitute the values of AB and BC in the expression of AC
∴ AC = 2x + 2x
∴ AC = 4x
∵ AC = 5x - 9
- Equate the two values of AC
∴ 5x - 9 = 4x
- Add 9 to both sides
∴ 5x = 4x + 9
- Subtract 4x from both sides
∴ x = 9
- Substitute the value of x in any expression of AC
∵ AC = 4x
∵ x = 9
∴ AC = 4(9) = 36
* The measure of segment AC is 36 units

What they said was correct!!
confirming
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Are the volumes equal? No, so throw out the first and the last one.
Is the volume of the pyramid greater than the volume of prism?
No, so throw out the third one
so by inspection it must be the remaining one
or mathematically
vol pyramid = (1/3)(base)(height)
vol prism = (base)(height)
vol pyramid / vol prism
(1/3)(base)(height) / (base)(height) = 1/3
