Answer:

A.) -9

Step-by-step explanation:

it is observed that triangles ABL and KML are similar triangles

hence the following ratios are valid:

LA / LK = LB/LM = AB/KM

we can see that LA/LK = LB/LM = 1/2

hence the above ratio becomes

1/2 = AB/KM  (rearranging)

KM = 2AB

We are given that KM = (x + 21) and AB = (x + 15)

hence

KM = 2AB

(x + 21) = 2 (x + 15)

x + 21 = 2x + 30

x - 2x = 30 - 21

-x = 9

x = -9

A line includes the points (10, -10) and (1,8). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

y=-2x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(8-(-10))/(1-10)

m=(8+10)/-9

m=18/-9

m=-2

------------------

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-10)=-2(x-10)

y+10=-2x+20

y=-2x+20-10

y=-2x+10

DG¯¯¯¯¯¯ , EG¯¯¯¯¯ , and FG¯¯¯¯¯ are perpendicular bisectors of the sides of △ABC . DG=5 cm and BD=12 cm.
jonny [76]
Given that <span>DG, EG, and FG are perpendicular bisectors of the sides of △ABC, this means that the point of intersection, G, is the circumcenter of the triangle and hence A</span><span>G, BG, and CG are equal.

Given that </span><span>DG = 5 cm and BD = 12 cm, then

BG= \sqrt{DG^2+BD^2}  \\  \\ = \sqrt{5^2+12^2} = \sqrt{25+144}  \\  \\ = \sqrt{169} =13

Since AG = BG = CG, therefore, CG = 13 cm.</span>

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

3,000,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 10^9 = 3 x 1,000,000,000 because if it were 10^1, then there would be 1 zero. Same thing for this. Since it's 10^9, there will be 9 zeroes.
