Answer:

NW = 15.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If ΔLMN ~ ΔNWR then:

\sf LN : LM = RN : RW

\implies \sf \dfrac{LN}{LM}=\dfrac{RN}{RW}

\implies \sf \dfrac{10}{24}=\dfrac{6}{RW}

\implies \sf 10RW=6 \cdot 24

\implies \sf RW = 14.4\:cm

Find NW by using Pythagoras' Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

Given:

  • a = RN = 6 cm
  • b = RW = 14.4 cm
  • c = NW

Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for NW:

\implies \sf 6^2+14.4^2=NW^2

\implies \sf NW^2=243.36

\implies \sf NW=\sqrt{243.36}

\implies \sf NW=15.6\:cm

Find RW then use Pythagorean theorem

  • ML/LN=RW/NR
  • 24/10=RW/6
  • 12/5=RW/6
  • 5RW=72
  • RW=14.4

So

  • NW²=RW²+NR²=6²+14.4²=36+201.6=237.6
  • NW=√237.6
  • NW=15.5cm

“Write an equation in standard form of the horizontal line that goes through (-7, 10)”
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal line is only concerned with the y value. The equation is y = 10 because that is the point that the line must go through.

The x value does not matter as long as the y value is given as 10. The domain is any real value. The range is 10

sierra wants to run a total of 5 1/2 miles. Each lap around the track is 1/4 mile. How many laps around the track does sierra ne
icang [17]

Answer:

She has to run 22 laps around the track.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 22 laps because each mile means 4 laps on the track and 5 miles multiplied by 4 laps it 20 laps to do 5 miles, and then 1/2 mile times two is 2/4 which is 2 laps. 2 plus 20 is 22 laps.
