Answer:

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ABCD and JKLM are similar triangles.

           AD = 3 m  , CD = 4 m  and ML = 6 m

To find: Perimeter of rectangle JKLM.

If two rectangles are similar then their corresponding sides are in equal ratio.

⇒ \frac{AD}{JM}=\frac{CD}{LM}

So, \frac{3}{JM}=\frac{4}{6}

JM=\frac{3\times6}{4}

JM = 9/2

JM = 4.5 m

Perimeter of rectangle JKLM = 2 ×( JM + LM ) = 2 × ( 4.5 + 6 ) = 2 × 10.5 = 21 m

Therefore, Option A is correct.

So the man's age is divisible by 3, 5, and 7 but not by 2, 4, 6, or 8.

3 * 5 * 7 = 105
105 is not divisible by 2, 4, 6, or 8.
Not sure if any lower ages are there, but since the man is 105 years old, you would receive $105.

svp [43]
Your answer is: $3.15 each.

Here are the steps:

First, I added $2.82 and $1.43. Then, I subtracted the sum ($4.25) from $20. Lastly, I divided the difference($15.75) by five because there were five pineapples. Which gave me the answer: $3.15.

To amend U.S. Constitution, 3/4 of the 50 states must approve the amendment. If 35 states approve an amendment, will the Constit
Elodia [21]
To answer the question we need to know if 35 out of 50 states is equal or greater than 3/4 if that is the case, the Constitution will be ammended, and that is represented like this:
35/50 >= 3/4
that inequality is saying that 35 states out of 50 is equal or greater than 3/4, lets simplify and modify the fractions to compare easily:
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>now we need to find the least common multiplier of 10 and 4 to take the fractions to a common denominator and compare easy. Lets multiply numerator and denominator for a correct number to get the fractions to denominator common 20, the lcm:
7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>(2/2)(7/10) >= (5/5)(3/4)
2*7/2*10 >= 5*3/5*4
14/20 >= 15/20
we can see that the inequality does not hold, so,
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>does not hold either, therefore the Constitution cannot be ammended

Write an equation of the line shown. Then use the equation to find the value of x when y=112
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

y = 8x + 16

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points on the line (0, 16) and (3, 40), an equation for the line can be written using the slope-intercept line equation which takes the format y = mx + b.

Where,

m = slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

b = y-intercept or the point at which the line cuts the y-axis.

Let's find slope (m) using the slope formula:

Let,

(0, 16) = (x_1, y_1)

(3, 40) = (x_2, y_2)

slope (m) = \frac{40 - 16}{3 - 0}

slope (m) = \frac{24}{3}

slope (m) = 8

Find b. Substitute the values of x = 0, y = 16, and m = 8 in the slope-intercept formula to find b.

y = mx + b

16 = 8(0) + b

16 = 0 + b

16 = b

b = 16

Plug in the values of m and b into the slope-intercept formula to get the equation of the line.

y = mx + b

y = 8x + 16

Let's use the equation to find x when y = 112.

y = 8x + 16

Substitute y = 112 in the equation

112 = 8x + 16

112 - 16 = 8x

96 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8

12 = x

x = 12
