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

What is the area of the polygon ?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

C)  99 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

you can divide this shape by drawing a horizontal line to create a 4x12" rectangle and a trapezoid with a height of (10-4) in and bases of 12 and 5"

area of rectangle:  12 x 4 = 48

area of trapezoid:  1/2(6)(12+5) = 3(17) = 51

total area = 48 + 51

total area = 99 in²

What is the volume of a cylinder with base radius 222 and height 666? either enter an exact answer in terms of \piπpi or use 3.1
Leno4ka [110]

In this question, it is given that the base radius is 2 , height is 6 and the value of pi is 3.14 .

And we have to find the volume of the cylinder, and for that, we have to use the following formula

V = \pi r^2 h

Substituting the values of pi,r and h, we will get

V = 3.14(2)^2 * 6 = 75.36 \ cubic \ units

find the mean, median, and mode of he data set. round to the nearest tenth. 7, 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 4, 5
SashulF [63]
Hello!

First you need to list the numbers from least to greatest

1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 7

To find the mean you add all the numbers up and divide the sum by the amount of numbers added

1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 7 = 39

39 / 10 = 3.9

The mean is 3.9
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To find the median you find the number in the middle

The median is 4
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mode is the number that appears the most

The mode is 5 

Hope this helps!
