Answer:
LM = 33 units

Explanation:
From the drawing:
LM = NP
41 - 2x = 7x + 5
41 - 5 = 7x + 2x
36 = 9x
x = 9

This means that:
LM = 41 - 2x
LM = 41 - 2(4)
LM = 33 units

Hope this helps :)

Richard and Teo have a combined age of 39. Richard is 3 years older than twice Teo’s age. How old are Richard and Teo

damaskus [11]

Answer:

Teo: 12

Richard: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Teo's age = x

Richard = 2x+3 (three years older than twice Teo's age)

If Richard+Teo=39 then x+2x+3=39

solve

3x=36

x=12

If Richard is 2x+3 then do 12*2+3=27

HELP PLEASE<3 <br> Find the missing angle <br> Btw its trigonometry

ira [324]

Answer:

x = 16.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the measure of an acute angle (31 degrees) of a right angle triangle, and of the side opposite to the angle (10), and we need to find the measure of the adjacent side "x", we use the tangent function:

$tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan(31^o)=\frac{10}{x}\\x=\frac{10}{tan(31^o)} \\x \approx 16.64279$

which rounded to one decimal is

x = 16.6
