Answer:
MN = 4 units

Explanation:
1- getting the value of m:
We are given that:
NQ = 4m and NQ = 12
This means that:
12 = 4m
$\frac{4m}{4} = \frac{12}{4}$
m = 3

2- getting MQ:
We are given that:
MQ = 5m + 1
We have calculated that:
m = 3
Therefore:
MQ = 5(3) + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16 units

3- getting MN:
We are given that point N is located somewhere between points M and Q.
This means that:
line MQ can be divided into two portions: MN and NQ
This also means that:
length of MQ = length of MN + length of NQ

We have calculated that:
MQ = 16 units
We are given that:
NQ = 12 units
Therefore:
16 = length of MN + 12
length of MN = 16 - 12
length of MN = 4 units

Hope this helps :)

Leslie has a voucher worth $5 coupon from Wal-Mart.She visits the store and purchases a wallet that amounted to double the price

jasenka [17]

Answer:

The Cost of wallet was $26.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total billed after redeeming voucher = $34.45

Voucher worth = $5

We need to find the cost of Wallet.

Solution:

Let the amount paid for groceries be 'x'.

Now Given:

She purchases a wallet that amounted to double the price she paid for the groceries she bought.

Cost of wallet = $2x$

Now to find the cost of wallet we will consider the amount before redeeming the voucher.

Hence Total bill before redeeming the voucher = $\$34.45+\$5=\$39.45$

Now We can say that;

Total bill is equal to sum of Cost of wallet and Cost of groceries.

framing in equation form we get;

$x+2x=39.45\\\\3x=39.45$

Dividing both side by 3 we get;

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{39.45}{3}\\\\x=\$13.15$

Cost paid for groceries = $13.15

Cost paid for wallet = $2x=2\times 13.15 =\$26.30$

Hence the Cost of wallet was $26.30.

A coin which is tossed straight up into the air. After it is released it moves upward, reaches its highest point and falls back

Helen [10]

Answer:

Answers G, and A

Step-by-step explanation:

the motion of a body is as a result of the various forces acting on it.

As the coin is tossed upwards an upwards force acts on it and this force decreases up to the highest point the coin reaches. at the highest point the force of gravity applies. This force is downwards and constant (9.8m/ $s^{2}$ ).
