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.

olga55 [171]
We have that the spring is going to have a sin or a cos equation. We have that the maximum distance of the spring is 6 inches and it is achieved at t=0. Let's fix this as the positive edge. Until now, we have that the function is of the form:
6sin(at+B). We have that the period is 4 minutes and hence that the time component in the equation needs to make a period (2pi) in 4 minutes. Thus 4min*a=2p, a=2p/4=pi/2. In general, a=2pi/T where a is this coefficient, T is the period. Finally, for B, since sin(pi/2)=1, we have that B=pi/2 because when t=0, we have that 6sin(B)=6. Substituting, we have f(t)=6sin(pi*t/2+pi/2)=6cos(pi*t/2)
by trigonometric identities.
