Answer:

Option D. y= 36

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure there are two triangles ΔMPO and ΔMNL

If two sides OP and LN are parallel and lines MN, ML are transverse respectively.

Then ∠MPO =∠MNL [ corresponding angles ]

and ∠MOP = ∠MLN [ corresponding angles ]

and ∠M is common to both the triangles.

Now by the property of AAA, ΔMPO & ΔMNL are similar

Now we know in similar triangles corresponding sides are in same ratio.

\frac{MP}{MN}=\frac{MO}{ML}

\frac{y}{y+18}=\frac{28}{28+14}=\frac{28}{42}=\frac{2}{3}

By cross multiplication

3y = 2(y + 18)

3y = 2y + 36

y = 36

Option D. y = 36 is the answer.

Answer:  The correct option is (D) 36.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the value of 'y' that would make OP parallel to LN.

MO = 28 units, OL= 14 units, Pl = 18 units and MP = y = ?

From the figure, we have

if OP ║ LN, then we must have

∠MOP = ∠MLN

and

∠MPO = ∠MNL.

Since ∠M is common to both the triangles MOP and MLN, so by AAA postulate, we get

ΔMOP similar to ΔMLN.

We know that the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional, so

\dfrac{MO}{ML}=\dfrac{MP}{MN}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MO}{MO+OL}=\dfrac{MP}{MP+PN}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{28}{28+14}=\dfrac{y}{y+18}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{28}{42}=\dfrac{y}{y+18}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{y}{y+18}\\\\\\\Rightarrow 2y+36=3y\\\\\Rightarrow y=36.

Thus, the required value of 'y' is 36.

(D) is the correct option.

true or false: the points (6, 13), and (21, 33) and (99, 137) all lie on the same line. th equation of the lines is y + /3x + 5.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

point A (6,13) lies on the equation.  True

given point  B(21,33) lies on the equation.  True

given point  C (99, 137) lies on the equation.  True

The equation that was given was  y = 4/3x + 5

Now,check the given equation for the given points.

1)  A (6,13)

Substitute x = 6 in the given equation y = 4/3x +5

y = 4/3(6) + 5 = 4(2) + 5 = 8+5 = 13

y=13

the given point A (6,13) lies on the equation.

2)  B  (21,33)

Substitute x = 21 in the given equation y=4/3x+5

y=4/3(21) + 5 = 4(7) + 5=28+5=33

y = 33

the given point  B(21,33) lies on the equation.

3)  C (99, 137)

Substitute x = 99 in the given equation y = 4/3x + 5

y=4/3(99) + 5 = 4(33) + 5 = 132 + 5 = 137

y = 137

the given point  C (99, 137) lies on the equation.

There is your answer

A rental car company charges $53.75 per day to rent a car and $0.12 for every mile driven. Jaya wants to rent a car, knowing tha
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality would have to indicate that the cost of renting a car has to be less than or equal to $230. The cost to rent a car is equal to the cost per day for the number of days plus the price per mile for the number of miles, which is:

53.75x+0.12y≤230, where:

x is the number of days the car is rented

y is the number of miles driven

As the statement says that she plans to drive 125 miles, you can replace "y" with this value and solve for x:

53.75x+0.12(125)≤230

53.75x+15≤230

53.75x≤230-15

53.75x≤215

x≤215/53.75

x≤4

According to this, the answer is that Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.

Can a remainder in a division problem equal the divisor
Rufina [12.5K]
Well the answer is No.A remainder will always be smaller than the divisor ,because the divisor is the one that used to divide the dividend and the remaining number that cannot be divided by the divisor is called the remainder.
