Answer:
KM = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The point of the segment addition postulate is that the combined length of segments laid end-to-end is the sum of their individual lengths.*
KL +LM = KM
(5x +1) +(3x +3) = 5x +4
8x +4 = 5x +4 . . . .simplify
3x = 0 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5x+4
x = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then the length of KM is ...
KM = 5x +4 = 5·0 +4 = 0 +4
KM = 4

* Sometimes it seems that geometrical theorems simply state the obvious. Some interesting math arises from systems of geometry in which this is not true. We usually don't study those in high school.
Answer:
the slope is rise over run in a graph
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
140°
Step-by-step explanation:
The other angle inside is 40 so 180-40 is 140°
We are looking for k in the equation
(x+4)(x+k/4) = x^2+7x+k
The left hand side expands to:
x^2+(4+k/4)x+k = x^2+7x+k
Comparing coefficients for the linear terms, we have the equation
(4+k/4)=7
Solving for k:
16+k=28
k=12
Thus the number to be subtracted is 15-k=15-12=3
