Answer: segment MN is not parallel to segment KL.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Converse of basic proportionality theorem says that if a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side.

Given: In triangle JKL, where line segment MN is dividing JK and Jl at M and N respectively.

Now,

\frac{JM}{MK}=\frac{9}{2}=4.5\\\\\frac{JN}{NL}=\frac{11}{3}=3.66666666667

Thus, \frac{JM}{MK}\neq\frac{JN}{NL}

⇒ segment MN is not parallel to segment KL [by converse of basic proportionality theorem]

If someone sleeps 8 hours a day for 75 years how many hours did that person sleep in his lifetime?
ra1l [238]
The person sleeps 8 hours a day.

There are 365 days in a year and 366 days in a leap year.

A leap year occurs every 4 years.

If we divide 75 by 4, we get 18.75. This number represents how many leap years occurred in 75 years. So, the person experienced approximately 19 leap years.

19 leap years has 6954 days.

The other 56 years, which have 365 days each year, have a total of 20,440 days.

That's a total of 27,394 days.

27,394 × 8 = 219,152 hours

This is approximately 24 years or 9,131 days.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

53.2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

let 't' = tank

t + t + t/2 = 266

5/2t = 266

multiply each side by 2/5 to get:

t = 106.4

the two larger tanks can each hold 106.4 gallons

the smaller tank can hold 53.2 gallons

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (5,0) and has a slope<br> of -1
erica [24]

Answer:

y = -x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

X, Y, and B is given using fomula y = m(x) + b

Subsitute those variables.

0 = -(5) + b

Solve for m.

0 = -5 + b

+5  +5

b = 5.

Then plug in the b and take out the x and y.

y = -x + 5

Z1 and Z2 are vertical angles. Z2 has measure of 93° what is the measure of Z1? enter your answer in the box.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

m∠Z1 = 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical Angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross.

They are congruent (the same as each other).

Therefore, m∠Z1 = m∠Z2, so if  m∠Z2 = 93° then m∠Z1 = 93°
