Answer:

n=4

JK=12

KL=13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: JK=3n and KL=5n-7.

It is given that Points J, K, and L are collinear. It means points J, K and L lie on a straight line.

Using segment addition property we get

JL=JK+KL

JL=3n+5n-7

JL=8n-7

(a)

It is given that JL=25.

25=8n-7

Add 7 on both sides.

32=8n

Divide both sides by 8.

\frac{32}{8}=n

4=n

Therefore, the value of n is 4.

(b)

JK=3n

JK=3(4)

JK=12

The value of JK is 12 units.

KL=5n-7

KL=5(4)-7

KL=20-7

KL=13

Therefore the value of KL is 13 units.

Answer:

n=4

JK=12

KL=13

Step-by-step explanation:

Since JL=25 and JL=3n+5n-7

Then

3n+5n-7=25 simplifying we get

8n-7=25 subtracting 7 from both sides

8n=32 dividing both sides by 8

n=4

JK?

JK=3n bt n=4

JK=3*4

JK=12

KL?

KL=5n-7

KL=5*4-7

KL=13

Ben has 2 identical pizzas.
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Let the weight if a whole pizza be x grams

Then 1/4 of a pizza weighs x/4  grams and one eighth weighs x / 8.  The difference is 32 grams so we can make the following equation:-

x/4 - x/8  = 32
x / 8  = 32
Multiplying both sides by 8:-

x = 8*32 =  256 

Answer is 256 grams.

Which is the side length of a cube with a volume of 1331 m3?
suter [353]
Let's remember the equation for the volume of a cube:
V= x^3 where x is the length of one side
Since a cube has equal length for length, width, and height.

Now, use what you're given
V= 1331

And put that in terms of x
x^3 = 1331

Now solve for x!
x= cube root (1331)

Think about it! cube root of 1331 * cube root of 1331 * cube root of 1331... will equal 1331 m^3!

Hope this helps
