X, Y, and Z are collinear and Y is between X and Z. If XY = 3x – 1, YZ = 5, and XZ = 5x – 8,
what is the value of x?
a. 6
b. 4
c. 10
d. 8
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
XY = 3x – 1, YZ = 5, and XZ = 5x – 8,
We know that XY + YZ = XZ, so
3x - 1 + 5 = 5x - 8
3x + 4 = 5x - 8
3x + 12 = 5x
12 = 2x
6 = x
The value of x from the given line segment XZ is 6. Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
Given that, X, Y, and Z are collinear and Y is between X and Z.
Collinear points are those that are on the same straight line or in the same plane. In Euclidean geometry, two or more points on a line that are close to or far from each other are said to be collinear.
So, here [tex]XZ=XY+YZ[/tex]
[tex]5x-8=3x-1+5[/tex]
[tex]5x-8=3x+4[/tex]
[tex]5x-3x=4+8[/tex]
[tex]2x=12[/tex]
[tex]x=6[/tex]
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

Given h(x)=4x-1, solve for x when h(x)=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
h(x) = 4x - 1
given,
h(x) = -9
now,
h(-9) = 4(-9) - 1
→ -36 - 1
→ -37
hope this answer helps you dear, take care!
Answer:
x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given h(x) = 4x - 1 and h(x) = - 9, then equating right sides gives
4x - 1 = - 9 ( add 1 to both sides )
4x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = - 2

Express each ratio as a fraction in simplest form.
2 gallons to 27 quarts
The ratio 2 gallons to 27 quarts as a fraction in its simplest form is 4/27
The given ratio is:
2 gallons to 27 quarts
This can also be written as:
2 gallons : 27 quarts
Convert 27 quarts to gallons so that both items in the ratio can be of equal unit
Note that:
1 quart = 0.25 gallons
27 quarts = 0.25 x 27
27 quarts = 6.75 gallons
The ratio can therefore be re-written as:
2 gallons : 6.75 gallons
In fraction form:
2 gallons : 27 quarts = 2/6.75
Multiply the numerator and denominator by 4
2 gallons : 27 quarts = 4/27
The ratio 2 gallons to 27 quarts as a fraction in its simplest form is 4/27

13. Write the equation of the line perpendicular to
5y = 3x + 25 but passing through (-4,-1)
Answer:
y = -[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]x - -[tex]\frac{23}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's divide both sides by 5 to get the first equation into the form y = mx + b. We get y = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]x + 5. The m value, [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex], is the slope and the b value, 5, is the y-intercept of this line.
When a line is perpendicular to another line, the slopes must multiply to get -1. In other words, the slopes must be a negative reciprocal of each other. Since the slope of the original line is [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex], we know that the slope of the line perpendicular to that is -[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex].
Then, since we know x, y, and m of the second equation, we can substitute those three values into the equation, y = mx + b, to find the y-intercept (b).
-1 = (-[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex])(-4) + b
-1 = [tex]\frac{20}{3}[/tex] + b
b = -[tex]\frac{23}{3}[/tex]
After plugging in the values of m and b we calculated, we get the equation for the line perpendicular to the original line: y = -[tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]x -[tex]\frac{23}{3}[/tex].

The world’s two highest dams are both in Tajikistan. The Rogun dam is 35 meters taller than the Nurek dam. Together they are 635 meters tall. Find the height of the Nurek dam
Answer: Rogun dam is 335m tall and Nurek dam is 300m tall
Step-by-step explanation:
I will use [tex]r[/tex] to represent the height of the Rogun dam and [tex]n[/tex] to represent the height of the Nurek dam.
The system of equations is as follows:
[tex]r+n=635[/tex]
[tex]r-n=35[/tex]
From the second equation, we can rearange it to be:
[tex]r=35+n[/tex]
Then take this new value of [tex]r[/tex] and plug it into our first equation to find [tex]n[/tex]
[tex](35+n)+n=635[/tex]
[tex]35+2n=635[/tex]
[tex]2n=600[/tex]
[tex]n=300[/tex]
This means that the Nurek dam is 300m tall, and the Rogun dam is 335m tall, found by pluggin the value into our first equation:
[tex]r+300=635[/tex]
[tex]r=335[/tex]
