If LN=54 and LM=31, find MN

2 answers:

7 0

In this item, it is unfortunate that a figure, drawing, or illustration is not given. To be able to answer this, it is assumed that these segments are collinear. Points L, M, and N are collinear, and that L lies between MN.

The length of the whole segment MN is the sum of the length of the subsegments, LN and LM. This can be mathematically expressed,
LN + LM = MN

We are given with the lengths of the smalller segments and substituting the known values,
MN = 54 + 31
MN = 85

ANSWER: MN = 85

EAB and DCB are two right triangles. The figure has BED≅ BDE. Point B is the midpoint of segment AC. Prove: EAB≅ DCB

aleksklad [387]

See the attached picture.

you are given that ABCE is an isosceles trapezoid. 

you are given that AB is parallel to EC. 

this means that AE is congruent to BC. 

you are given that AE and AD are congruent. 

triangle EAD is an isosceles triangle because AE and AD are congruent. 

this means that angle 1 is equal to angle 3. 

since angle 1 is equal to angle 2 and angle 3 is equal to angle 1, then angle 3 is also equal to angle 2. 

this means that AD and BC are parellel because their corresponding angles (angles 3 and 2) are equal. 

since AB is parallel to EC and DC is part of the same line, than AB is parallel to DC. 

you have AB parallel to DC and AD parallel to BC. 

if opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. 

that might be able to do it,depending on whether all these statements are acceptable without proof. 

they are either postulates or theorems that have been previously proven. 

if not, then you need to go a little deeper and prove some of the statements that you used.. 

here's my diagram.

this is not a formal proof, but should give you some ideas about how to proceed. 

you can also prove that angle 4 is equal to angle 2 because they are alternate interior angles of parallel lines. 

you can also prove that angle 6 is equal to angle 5 because they are alternate interior angles of parallel lines.

Suppose students' ages follow a skewed right distribution with a mean of 24 years old and a standard deviation of 3 years. If we

natta225 [31]

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean of students' age = 24 years

Standard deviation of students' age = 3 years

Sample size = number of students = 350

So, according to options,

a. The shape of the sampling distribution is approximately normal.

It is true as n >30, we will use normal.

b. The mean of the sampling distribution is approximately 24-years old.

It is true as it is given.

c. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is equal to 5 years.

It is not true as it is given 3 years.

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.

jolli1 [7]

Answer: Ball's kinetic energy became potential energy

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no options attached but this should be along the lines of what happened.

Kinetic energy refers to energy that an object has as a result of it moving whilst potential energy is the opposite and is energy that an object stores within itself due to several factors whilst it is not in motion.

The ball was initially in motion which means that it had kinetic energy but as the ball was slowing down, this energy was gradually converted to potential energy until the balls came to a standstill.

If 40% of a number is 32, what is 25% of that number?

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Well what I would do is split the 40% into 20% so from 40% to 20% that is /2. So 32/2=16 so 20% of a number is 16, we know there is 5, 20% in 100% so multiply 16 and 5 which gives you 80. Now 25% of 80 is the same as 80*.25 or 80/4 which is 20
