Triangle L M N is cut by line segment O P. Line segment O P goes from side M L to side M N. The length of O L is 14, the length

of O M is 28, the length of M P is y, and the length of P N is 18.
Which value of y would make O P is parallel to L N?

Answer:

The value of y that would make O P parallel to L N = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question on similar triangles. Find attached the diagram obtained from the given information.

Given:

The length of O L = 14

the length of O M = 28

the length of M P = y

the length of P N = 18

Length MN = MP + PN = y + 18

Length ML = MO + OL = 28+14 = 42

For OP to be parallel to LN,

MO/ML = MP/PN

MO/ML = 28/42

MP/PN= y/(y+18)

28/42 = y/(y+18)

42y = 28(y+18)

42y = 28y + 18(28)

42y-28y = 504

14y = 504

y = 504/14 = 36

The value of y that would make O P parallel to L N = 36

The perimeter of a pool is 150 m. the rectangle at the right is a scale drawing of the pool. The length of each square on the gr
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given rectangle,

Length of the rectangle = 5 cm

Width of the rectangle = 10 cm

Ratio of length : width = 1 : 2

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(l + b)= 150 cm

l + b = 75 -----(1)

Since, l : b = 1 : 2

\frac{l}{b}= \frac{1}{2}

b = 2l ------(2)

From equations (1) and (2),

l + 2l = 75

3l = 75

l = 25 m

Width 'b' = 2(25) = 50 m

Now we have to draw a rectangle with a scale = 25 : 2

Therefore, Scale factor = \frac{25}{l}=\frac{25}{2}

l = 2 cm

Similarly,

\frac{50}{w}=\frac{25}{2}

w = 4 cm

Now we can draw a rectangle with length = 2 cm and width = 4 cm.

John needs 13 bottles of water from the store. john can only carry 3 at a time. what's the minimum number of trips john needs to
Lostsunrise [7]
The minimum amount of trips would be 5. This is because in one trip he can only carry 3, so you would take 5 times 3. You may think it should be 4 trips, but 12 is 1 short of 13,so you would have to make one extra trip to get all 13 bottles.

Answer:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a 3"

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2 "

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutually exclusive means the events will have no intersection.

Let's look at your first choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on an even number"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on an even number would be 2 or 4.

There is an intersection (they contain a common element), the 4.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your second choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a number greater than 3"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on a number greater than 3 would be just 4.

There is an intersection; they both contain 4.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your third choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a 3"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on 3 would just be 3.

There is no common elements in the lists listed.  These events have no intersection.

These events are mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your fourth choice:

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on an odd number"

Landing on a unshaded portion would be 2 or 3.

Landing on an odd number would be 1 or 3.

There is an intersection; they both have 3 in common.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your fifth choice:

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2 "

Landing on an unshaded portion would 2 or 3.

Landing on a number less than 2 would be 1.

There is no intersection.

These events are mutually exclusive.
