MN and KL are parallel. If JM=9, MK=45, and LN=40, what is NJ?

Mathematics

6 0

Answer: NJ = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In triangle JKL , MN is a line segment parallel to KL intersects the other sides into two distinct points at M and N.

The basic proportionality theorem says that a line is parallel to a side of a triangle which intersects the other sides into two different points then the line divides those sides in proportion.

So by basic proportionality theorem we have :-

\frac{JM}{MK}=\frac{NJ}{LN}\\\\\Rightarrow\frac{9}{45}=\frac{NJ}{40}\\\\\Rightarrow NJ=\frac{40}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow NJ=8

The graph shows the velocity f(t) of a runner during a certain time interval:
omeli [17]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

  • (0,2)
  • (6,8)
  • (8,0)

Slope

  • m=8-2/6
  • m=6/6=1

And

  • m=0-8/8-6
  • m=-8/2
  • m=-4

These are acceleration

Y intercept is (0,2) as x coordinate is 0

This is initial velocity 2m/s

The runner stopped at 8s
