Answer:

Segment LM is 0.5 units longer than segment JK.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that segment JK has a length of 4.5 units. If segment LM has end points of L (3,1) and M (-1,4).

We will find length of segment LM using distance formula.

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Substitute given values:

D=\sqrt{(3-(-1))^2+(1-4)^2}

D=\sqrt{(3+1)^2+(-3)^2}

D=\sqrt{(4)^2+(-3)^2}

D=\sqrt{16+9}

D=\sqrt{25}

D=5

Therefore, the distance of segment LM is 5 units.

Now, we will find the difference between segment LM and JK as:

\text{Difference between LM and JK}=5-4.5

\text{Difference between LM and JK}=0.5

Therefore, segment LM is 0.5 units longer than segment JK.

Distance formula:
d= \sqrt{ (x_{2}-x_{1}) ^{2}+( y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2}}\\ d= \sqrt{ (3-(-1)) ^{2}+(1 - 4 )^{2}}\\ d= \sqrt{ (4) ^{2}+(-3)^{2}}\\ d=\sqrt{16+9}\\ d=\sqrt{25}\\ d=5

5 units-4.5 units=0.5 units

LM is 0.5 units longer than LM.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 6x - 9

Subtract 6x from each side

x^2 -6x = -9

Add 9 to each side

x^2 -6x+9 = 0

Factor  

what 2 numbers multiply to 9 and add to -6

-3*-3 = 9

-3+-3 =-6

(x-3)(x-3) = 0

Using the zero product property

x-3 =0    x-3=0

x=3 with multiplicity 2

vivado [14]

Answer:A. The theoretical probability for pink is 95/185 or about 51.35%

B. The theoretical probability for brown is 90/185 or about 47.82%.

C. To find the experimental probability, we will make another fraction. The number of outcomes will be the numerator and the total will be the denominator.

Pink  36/69 = 52.17%

Brown  33/69 = 47.82%
