By solving a system of equations, we will see that m measures 12 units.

<h3>How to get the measure of m?</h3>

Notice that we have 3 right triangles.

Then we can write the equations:

cos(a) = 6/m

For the small triangle on the left, where m is the hypotenuse.

cos(a) = m/(6 + 18)

For the larger triangle (the one composed of the two triangles).

Where in both equations, angle "a" is the one in the top left.

Then we have the system of equations:

cos(a) = 6/m

cos(a) = m/(6 + 18)

Then we can write:

6/m = m/(6 + 18)

If we simplify the expression, we get:

6*(6 + 18) = m^2

6*(24) = m^2

144 = m^2

√144 = m = 12

Then we conclude that m measures 12 units.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To get their total reach, we add the two numbers.

 5⅙

+4⅚

Add integers and fractions

 5⅙

<u>+4⅚ </u>

 9⁶/₆

Convert the fraction to an integer

⁶/₆ = 1

Add the 1 to the 9

9 + 1 = 10 ft

If Madison and Jade lay end to end, they will they reach 10 ft.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

100 - 2(x + 5) = 100 - 2x - 10 = 90 -2x

90 - 2x

90 - 2×10

90 - 20 = 70
