Find the length of each hypotenuse such that KMN = LMN

Mrac [35]3 years ago

If triangle KMN is congruent with triangle LMN, then:
1) KM must be congruent with LM→KM=LM→
x+2y=3x-y→x+2y-x-2y=3x-y-x-2y→0=2x-3y→2x-3y=0   (1)

2) KN must be congruent with LN→KN=LN→
5x+3y=8x-7→5x+3y-5x-3y+7=8x-7-5x-3y+7→7=3x-3y→3x-3y=7  (1)

We have a system of two equations and two unkowns:
(1) 2x-3y=0
(2) 3x-3y=7

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2)
(3x-3y)-(2x-3y)=7-0
3x-3y-2x+3y=7
x=7

Replacing x=7 in equation (1)
(1) 2x-3y=0→2(7)-3y=0→14-3y=0→
14-3y+3y=0+3y→14=3y→14/3=3y/3→14/3=y→y=14/3

The length of the hypotenuse is:
KN=5x+3y=5(7)+3(14/3)=35+14→KN=49
or
LN=8x-7=8(7)-7=56-7→LN=49

Answer: Option C. 49

Find the common difference for the sequence shown 1/4,5/16,3/8
Vladimir79 [104]
<span>common difference for the sequence = 1/16

cause
1/4 = 4/16
and
3/8 = 6/16

so
4/16 + 1/16 = 5/16
5/16 + 1/16 = 6/16

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1) The store selling for 1.1 per 3 lbs

2) $6.24

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

1.1/3 = 0.37

0.78/2 = 0.39

0.37 is cheaper so it's a better deal

2)

\frac{0.78}{3} =\frac{x}{24} \\\\3x=18.72\\x=6.24
