Answer:

BC:BN=8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.

Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD

But, BC= BN+NC

Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN

⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3

⇒BC:BN=8:3

Which is the graph of linear inequality 6x + 2y > –10? On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with negative slope goes
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with negative slope goes through (negative -5/3, 0) and (0, negative 5). Everything to the right of the line is shaded

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 2y > –10

Solve for y

Subtract 6x from each side

2y > -6x -10

Divide by 2

y > -3x - 5

The y intercept is -5 and the slope is -3

The x intercept is -5/3

The line is dashed  and shaded to the right

If hexagon JGHFKI Is congruent to hexagon SRTQUV, which pair of angles must be congruent?
Dima020 [189]

Hey there!

If these hexagons are congruent, then each angle is congruent to the one that is in the same position as it is. In this case, I and V are congruent because they are both last. K and U are congruent because they are both second to last.

While looking over the answer options, you should be able to see that Angle J and Angle S is the only answer with angles that match up, because they are both the first angle in the set.

I hope this helps!

The system shown is _____.<br><br> equivalent<br><br> independent<br><br> inconsistent
Rzqust [24]
We know that
If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent.
When you graph the equations, both equations represent the same line
so
the system has an infinite number of solutions

If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent.
<span>
therefore
the system is </span>consistent, dependent and <span>equivalent
</span><span>
the answer is 
</span>equivalent
