If B is the midpoint of AC, AB = 8x + 2 and BC = 5x + 14, then what is the length of AB?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of AB: 34

Step-by-step explanation:

What are we given?

B = Midpoint of AC

AB = 8x + 2

BC = 5x + 14

|--------------|--------------|

A               B               C

(This is what your line would look like)

Our equation would be:

AB + BC = AC

(8x + 2) = (5x + 14)

(AB)      =        (BC)

(Assuming that our line and points are evenly spread out, we can say that they can equal each other)

8x + 2 = 5x  +14

- 5x- 2 = -5x -2

---------------------

3x = 12

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{12}{3}[/tex]

---------------------

x = 4

1) Substitute

(8x + 2) + (5x + 14) = AC

    (AB) + ( BC)       = AC

AB = 8(4) + 2

32 + 2

= 34

BC = 5(4) + 14 =

20 + 14

= 34

(We may be able to assume that since the length of the line is possible the same for AB and BC this is considered correct)

Answer 2

The length of the line segment AB is 34 units.

Given that, B is the midpoint of AC, AB = 8x + 2 and BC = 5x + 14.

What is the midpoint of line segment?

A midpoint of a line segment is the point on a segment that bisects the segment into two congruent segments. The midpoint of a line segment is the point on a segment that is at the same distance or halfway between the two ending points.

Since, B is the midpoint of AC

AB=BC

8x + 2=5x+14

Subtract 5x on both sides of the equation, that is

8x+2-5x=5x+14-5x

⇒ 3x+2 = 14

Transpose 2 to other side of the equation, we get

3x = 14 - 2

⇒ 3x=12

Transpose 3 to other side of the equation, we get

x=4

So, AB=8x+2

=8×4+2

=32+2=34 units

Therefore, the length of the line segment AB is 34 units.

In the diagram, QRSTU is a regular pentagon and STVW is
a straight line. PQVW is a part of a regular polygon. Find
the number of sides of the regular polygon.​

Answers

Answer:

15 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the following about interior and exterior angles of polygons.

Interior angles of polygons:

The formula (n - 2)180 gives the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon of n sides.

If we know the number of sides, we can find the sum of the measures of the angles.

Exterior angles of polygons:

The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360. If the polygon is a regular polygon of n sides, then the measure of each exterior angle is 360/n.

This problem:

QRSTU is a regular pentagon.

The sum of the measures of the sides of a polygon of n sides is

(n - 2)180

For a pentagon, n = 5, so

(n - 2)180 = (5 - 2)180 = (3)180 = 540

The sum of the measures of the angles of pentagon QRSTU is 540.

Since it's a regular polygon, each angle measures 540/5 = 108.

Angles UQR, R, and S are interior angles of the pentagon, so each one measures 108 degrees.

Now look at polygon VQRS. It is a quadrilateral with sides VQ, QR, RS, and SV. The sum of the measures of the angles of a quadrilateral (4 sides; n = 4) is

(n - 2)180 = (4 - 2)180 = 2(180) = 360

m<VQU = 12 (given)

m<UQR = 108

m<VQR = m<VQU + m<UQR = 108 + 12 = 120

The angles of quadrilateral VQRS are <VQR, <R, <S ,and <TVQ. Their sum is 360.

<VQR + m<R + m<S + m<TVQ = 360

We now substitute the angle values we know and solve for m<TVQ.

120 + 108 + 108 + m<TVQ = 360

m<TVQ = 24

<TVQ is an exterior angle of the large polygon of which PQ, QV and VW are sides.

The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon, one per vertex, is 360. For a regular polygon, all exterior angles are congruent, and the measure of each exterior angle is the sum of the the measures of the exterior angles divided by the number of sides.

[tex] measure~of~an~exterior~angle = \dfrac{sum~of~the~measures~of~the~exterior~angles}{number~of~sides} [/tex]

[tex] a = \dfrac{360}{n} [/tex]

We know that the measure of an exterior angle is 24 deg.

[tex] 24 = \dfrac{360}{n} [/tex]

[tex] n = \dfrac{360}{24} [/tex]

[tex] n = 15 [/tex]

A rectangle has a length that is 3 more than twice the width.

And, Its perimeter is 96 inches.

Let the width of rectangle = x

So, The length of rectangle = 3 + 2x

You will have to pay back a total of $464 over the course of the two-year loan, which includes the $400 principal plus $64 in interest.

What is Simple Interest ?

Simple interest can be defined as the ratio of product of principal amount , rate , time and hundred.

The interest on your loan can be calculated using the formula:

Interest = Principal x Rate x Time

In this case, the principal is $400, the rate is 8% (or 0.08 as a decimal), and the time is 2 years.

So, plugging in the numbers:

Interest = $400 x 0.08 x 2 = $64

Therefore, the total amount you will have to pay back is the sum of the principal and the interest, which is:

Total = Principal + Interest

= $400 + $64 = $464

Hence, You will have to pay back a total of $464 over the course of the two-year loan, which includes the $400 principal plus $64 in interest.

Take [tex]x=40,y=5[/tex]

[tex]25(40)+200(5)\geq 1000\\1000+1000\geq 1000\\2000\geq 1000[/tex]

So, [tex]x=40,y=5[/tex] satisfy the inequality [tex]25x+200y\geq 1000[/tex]

Therefore,

three different amounts of milk and cheese that a person could consume to meet the recommendation are as follows:
