Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If KM bisects angle NKL, the angle 3 is congruent to angle 4.
We are given that angle 1 is congruent to angle 2, so that means that angle JKP is congruent to angle PKN. By the definition of an angle bisector, we know then that angle NKM is congruent to angle MKL. By the definition of a straight angle formed by opposite rays, all those angles named above add up to equal 180 degrees. So if angle JKN = 8x + 2 and angle MKL = 3x + 5 and angles NKM and MKL are congruent, then angle NKL = 2(3x + 5) which is 6x + 10. Again, if all those angles above add up to equal 180, then
8x + 2 + 6x + 10 = 180 and
14x + 12 = 180 and
14x = 168 so
x = 12.
Angle MKN = 3x + 5 so if x = 12, then
Angle MKN = 3(12) + 5 and
Angle MKN = 41 degrees
Let's use J for James's age and A for Austin's age. The equations are:
J = A - 4
3J + A² = 28
Just plug (A - 4) in the place of J in the second equation. This gives you:
3(A - 4) + A² = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 12 = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 40 = 0
-->
(A - 5)(A + 8) = 0
-->
A = 5 or -8
-8 is nonsense, so Austin is 5 years old. Therefore, James is 1 year old.
Let x = weight of adult meerkat, y=weight of baby meerkat, Find y.
x=0.776 kg
y+7.47hectogram=x=0.776
Since 1 hectogram = 0.1 kg,
Therefore the weight of baby meerkat is, y= 0.029 kg
Answer:
m = StartFraction 9 minus 0 Over 0 minus 3 EndFraction; y = –3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The given points are the y-intercept and the x-intercept, so they can be used directly in the intercept form of the equation of a line.
x/(x-intercept) +y/(y-intercept) = 1
x/3 +y/9 = 1
Multiplying by 9 gives ...
3x +y = 9
This can be rearranged to the slope-intercept form ...
y = -3x +9
_____
The answer selection shown above is the only one that matches the slope and y-intercept of the line through the given points.
Answer:
1/4h
Step-by-step explanation:
If the time for the car trip is x, then given that a car trip is 1/2h shorter than a bus trip, it means that adding 1/2h to the time for a car trip gives the time for the bus trip.
Hence, the time for the bus trip
= (1/2 + x)h
since the bus trip is 3/4h, it means that
1/2 + x = 3/4
collecting like terms,
x = 3/4 - 1/2
= 3/4 - 2/4
= 1/4
Hence the car trip is 1/4h.
