Answer:

<h2>JL is 70 units long.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • K is the midpoint of JL. Where JL = 11x + 26.
  • JK = KL by midpoint definition.
  • JK = 9x - 1  by given.
  • KL = 2x + 27 by given.

Replacing each expression, we have

JK = KL

9x - 1 = 2x + 27

9x - 2x = 27 + 1

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4

Replacing this value in JL expression.

JL = 11x + 26

JL = 11(4) + 26

JL = 44 + 26

JL = 70 units.

Therefore, JL is 70 units long.

Answer:

JL = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Since K is the midpoint of JL then JK = KL and

JL = JK + KL = 9x - 1 + 2x + 27 = 11x + 26

solve for x using JK = KL

9x - 1 = 2x + 27 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

7x - 1 = 27 ( add 1 to both sides )

7x = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 4, hence

JL = 11x + 26 = (11 × 4 ) + 26 = 44 + 26 = 70

Graph the system. Tell whether the system has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. y = –2x + 1 y = –2x – 3
Alchen [17]
Let's try the actual solution of the system

<span>y = –2x + 1
y = –2x – 3

Note that the slopes of the graphs of these two lines are the same:  -2.

That means that the lines are parallel to one another.

Only the y-intercepts (1 and -3) are different.

Since the 2 lines never intersect, the system has no solution.

Please help me! I need help on this question!
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

C and A

Step-by-step explanation:

expand the things in parentheses so for C

1/2(x + 16) = 1/2(x) + 1/2(16) = 1/2 x + 8

same process for A

Alex wants to sew a pillow in the shape below. How many square yards of fabric are needed to sew the pillow? Fabric is only sold
r-ruslan [8.4K]

The shape is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached, the diameter of the inner semi - circle is 0.5 yards while the length of each side of the pillow is 0.2 yards.

Thus, for us to find the length of the seam which is along the edges of the pillow, we will calculate the perimeter of the outer semicircle, then add the perimeter of the inner semicircle and also add the sides too.

Now, due to the fact that the length of the sides of the pillow are 0.2 yards each, the diameter of the outer circle would be;

0.5 + 0.2 + 0.2 = 0.9 yards. So, the perimeter of the outer semicircle is,

P0 = πd/2 = π × 0.9/2 =0.45π yds

The perimeter of the inner semicircle would be given as;

PI = πd/2 = π × 0.5/2 =0.25π yds.

Thus, we can calculate the total perimeter of the pillow as;

PT = P0 + PI + 0.2 + 0.2

PT = 0.45π + 0.25π + 0.2 + 0.2

PT ≈ 2.6 yards

Alex will need 2.6 yds

What’s the equation of the line that passes through (2,3) and is parallel to the line 12x-5y=2
TiliK225 [7]

12x-5y=2

-5y=2-12x

y=-2/5+12/5x

should know the m=12/5

and (2,3) bring them to the line equation:

3=12/5x2+b

6/5+b=3

b=3-6/5

b=9/5

y=12/5x+9/5

Which means the answer is not in the choices.
