Answer:
A segment whose length is 9 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
A segment whose length is 9 units.
All we have is a bisection that divides equally segment JK in two parts. And M is the Midpoint what reassures us that JM=MK, so plugging in:
3x+15=8x+25
3x-8x=25-15
-5x=10
5x=-10
x=-2
JM=3(-2)+15 =9
MK=8(-2)+25=9
Answer: 2/3
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have 8/15 ÷ 4/5. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
8/15 ÷ 4/5 can be rewritten as 8/15 × 5/4
Now, we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.
8/15 × 5/4 = 40/60 = 2/3
