Applying BPT theorem in triangle MNP, which states that, If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting other two sides, then it divides the two sides in the same ratio.

\frac{MB}{BP}=\frac{MA}{AN}

\frac{x}{96.6-x}=\frac{80.5-35}{35}

\frac{x}{96.6-x}=\frac{45.5}{35}

35x= 45.5(96.6-x)

35x= 4395.3 - 45.5x

80.5x = 4395.3

x=54.6 meters

On Martin's first stroke, his golf ball traveled \dfrac45 5 4 ​ start fraction, 4, divided by, 5, end fraction of the distance t
makvit [3.9K]

Answer: 0.395 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Martin distance from the hole be X

On first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole. That is 4/5 X

On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 meters and went into the hole

Total distance covered will be

X = 79 + 4/5X

X - 4/5X = 79

X - 0.8X = 79

0.2X = 79

X = 79/0.2 = 395 meters

How many kilometers from the hole was Martin when he started

X = 395/1000 = 0.395 km

The ratio of red tacks to blue tacks on the bulletin board is 3 to 5. There are 50 blue tacks. How many red tacks are there?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

If we want our ratio to stay the same (3 to 5), we'll need to pair a set of 3 blue tacks with every set of 5 red tacks. In a group of 50, we can make 10 groups of 5 red tacks, so we'll also need 10 groups of 3 blue tacks, which gives us a total of 30 blue tacks
