Answer:

Part a) The value of x is 10

Part b) The perimeter of triangle JKL is 79\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Find the value of x

we know that

The <u>Triangle Proportionality Theorem,</u> states that if a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides of the triangle, then the line divides these two sides proportionally

\frac{3x-5}{3x-5+10}=\frac{28-8}{28}\\ \\\frac{3x-5}{3x+5}=\frac{20}{28} \\ \\(3x-5)(28)=(3x+5)(20) \\ \\84x-140=60x+100\\ \\84x-60x=140+100\\ \\24x=240\\ \\x=10

Part b) we know that

The perimeter of triangle JKL is equal to

P=JK+KL+JL

substitute the values

P=(3x+5)+28+16=3x+49

substitute the value of x

P=3(10)+49=79\ units

If my finger was about 3 inches long, about how many centimeters would it be?
liraira [26]
It would be 7.62 centimeters. Just multiply how many inches you have by 2.54, and you'll have your conversion.

Please Answer Quick 70 Points !
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the first equation because it makes the first equation true

The ordered pair (7, 19) is not a solution to the system because it makes at least one of the equations false

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

2x-y=-5 -----> First equation

x+3y=22 -----> Second equation

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (1,7)

The ordered pair (7,19) lie on the first line, so is a solution of the first equation

see the attached figure

<u><em>Verify each statement</em></u>

case 1) The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the first equation because it makes the first equation true

The statement is true

case 2) The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the second equation because it makes the second equation true

The statement is false, because the ordered pair (7,19) not lie on the second line

case 3) The ordered pair (7, 19) is not a solution to the system because it makes at least one of the equations false

The statement is true

case 4) The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the system because it makes both equations true

The statement is false,because it makes only the first equation true
