Answer:
HJ = 8 JE = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
it is given that H is the midpoint of GE and J is the midpoint of FE. According to the midpoint theorem the line segment connecting the midpoint of two sides is parallel to the three side and its length is half of the third side. since JH is connecting the midpoints.
HJ= 1/2 (GF)
x + 3 = 1/2 (4x - 4)
x + 3 = 2x - 2
x = 5
^ Thus meaning the value of x is 5.
Now you just fill into your equations:
HJ = x + 3 = (5) + 3 = 8
JE = x - 1 = (5) - 1 = 4
Therefore, HJ = 8; JE = 4.
The output y is 
Explanation:
The expression is 
We need to determine the output y, when the value of input is x is 5.
That is, substituting 
in , we get,
Multiplying the value within the bracket, we have,
Subtracting the terms, we get,
Thus, the value of output y is
Answer:
1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to figure out the lightest and the heaviest bad. The lightest bag is 4 1/4 and the heaviest is 5 3/4. Now to subtract, you can't subtract this as a mixed fraction so turn each fraction into an improper fraction by multiplying the whole number by the denominator then adding the numerator to the product of the whole number multiplied by the denominator (if you didn't know numerator is the top and the denominator is the bottom. To find out 4 1/4 as an improper fraction follow these steps (4*4+1=17) so 4 1/4=17/4. The process is the same for 5 3/4 (5*4+3=23) so 5 3/4= 23/4. Now to subtract, you subtract the numerator but not the denominator. You subtract because the question asks how many more and that means to subtract 23/4-17/4= 6/4. Last step is to turn this back into a mixed fraction do that by dividing the numerator by the denominator, 6 divided by 4 equals 1.5 and turn the decimal into a fraction 1 is a whole number so you don't change that but the 5 behind the decimal needs to be changed so now 1.5= 1 5/10 and last step is simplify 1 1/2. Hope this helped :).
I think there is a lack of information with regards to the question posted above. This may be the complete question:
Van is 75% taller than Keith. If Van's height increases by 40% while Kieth's increases only by 25%, by what percent is Van taller than Kieth now?
We put Van at 175 and Kieth at 100 since Van is 75% taller than Keith.
When Kieth's height increased at 25%, he is now 125
When Van's height increased at 40%, he is now 245
245-125=120 and
<span><span><span>120/125</span>= .96 = 96%
The answer is 96%. I hope this helps.</span></span>
