Answer: The weight of blue marlin= 252 pounds

The weight of amber-jack = 21 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the weight of blue marlin and y be the weigh of amber-jack.

According to the give question , we have the following system of equations :

x=12y------------(1)\\\\x+y=273----------(2)

Substitute the value of x from equation (1) in (2), we get

12y+y=273\\\\ 13y=273

Divide both sides by 13 , we get

y= 21

Put value of y in (1), we get

x=12(21)=252

Hence, the weight of blue marlin= 252 pounds

The weight of amber-jack = 21 pounds

Can someone please help me with the questions in the images. if they are correct i will mark as brainliest

Answer:

6) x=9.75

10) Triangle OMN ~ Triangle ODK; SSS ~

11) SSS ~ theorem

12) SSS ~ theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

For #6, since the polygons are similar, then it must mean AD is congruent to JM and CD is congruent to LM. Now we can set up the proportion 39/20=x/5 and solve. Solving for x gets us x=9.75, so C is the correct choice

For #10, there's no information about angles whatsoever in the diagram, so B and C must be wrong. D must be wrong as well because if the triangles weren't similar, then why is OJ ~ JM and OK ~ KN? So thus, the triangles are similar by SSS.

For #11, this is sort of a no-brainer because there's no mention of angles, so D must be correct.

For #12, same concept, no mention of angles, all sides are similar to their respective sides of the different triangles, so A is correct.

For a circle with a diameter of 6 meters, what is the measurement of a central angle (in degrees) subtended by an arc with a len
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{\theta=150^{\circ}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

\text{Arc length}=r\cdot \theta

where,

r = radius,

θ = central angle in radian.

Given,

diameter = 6 m, so radius = 3 m.

\text{Arc length}=\dfrac{5}{2}\pi

Putting the values,

\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{2}\pi=3\theta

\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{5}{2\times 3}\pi

\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{5}{6}\pi=\dfrac{5}{6}\times 180^{\circ}=150^{\circ}
