Answer:

The numerical length of JL is 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to determine the numerical length of JL

Mathematically;

JL = JK + KL

2x + 8 = 5x + 7 + 4

2x + 8 = 5x + 11

5x -2x = 8-11

3x = -3

x = -1

But JL = 2x + 8

JL = 2(-1) + 8 = -2 + 8 = 6

In your own words, explain why when we multiply terms that have the same bases, we add the exponents.
Doss [256]

When multiplying exponents, remember the first rule: when multiplying similar bases, add powers together. 52% + 56% =? The bases of the equation remain unchanged, while the exponents' values are added together. Adding the exponents is only a quick way to get at the answer. Simply add the exponents to multiply exponential expressions with the same base. Simplify. The product rule applies because the base of both exponents is a. With a common basis, add the exponents.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the number of hours worked at the donut shop

y----> the number of hours worked at the school bookstore

we know that

x+y=20

x=20-y -----> equation A

10.25x+8.75y=196 -----> equation B

Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

10.25(20-y)+8.75y=196

205-10.25y+8.75y=196

10.25y-8.75y=205-196

1.5y=9

y=6 hours at the school bookstore

You're flying from Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) to an undisclosed location 115 km south and 112 km east. Mt. Rainier is locat
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

  5 minutes 4.8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can work this problem several ways. One is to determine the component of the distance from JBLM to the mountain that is in the direction the plane is flying. We can do that by finding the dot product of the vector to the mountain with the normalized direction vector of the airplane:

  JA = JR•(JP/|JP|) . . . . . . where JR = (56, -40) and JP = (112, -115)

  = (56, -40)•(112, -115)/√(112² +115²)

  JA = 10872/√25769 ≈ 67.7268 . . . . km

__

At a speed of 800 km/h, this distance will be covered in ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (67.7268 km)/(800 km/h) = 0.0846585 h

That's about 5 minutes, 4.8 seconds.

_____

In the attached diagram, J represents JBLM, R represents Mt. Rainier, A represents the point of closest approach, and P would represent the location of the airplane after 1 hour of flying time, (112, -115). In the above, we have used the names of these line segments/vectors.
