Question
If DF = 9y + 4, BC= 3y + 13, what is the length of DF?
- 5
- 7
- 8
- 9
Hint:
the midpoint theorem refers to the midpoint of the line segment. It defines the coordinate points of the midpoint of the line segment and can be found by taking the average of the coordinates of the given endpoints.
The correct answer is: 7
Step 1 of 1:
We have given If DF = 9y + 4, BC= 3y + 13
BC = 2DF
3y + 13 = 2(9y + 4)
3y + 13= 18y + 8
15y = 5
y = 
DF = 9y + 4 = 9 (
) + 4= 3 + 4 = 7
