Answer:

BC:BN=8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.

Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD

But, BC= BN+NC

Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN

⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3

⇒BC:BN=8:3

Factor 140c + 28 - 14a to identify the equivalent expressions.
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The answer to your question are letters A, C and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor this polynomial we need to look for the common factor of the three terms.

To find it, get the greatest common factor

                        140    28   14     2

                          70    14     7     2

                          35     7     7     5

                            7     7      7     7

                             1     1       1    

Greatest common factor = 2 x 7 = 14  

Factor the polynomial

140c + 28 - 14a = 14 ( 10c + 2 - a)

Factor only 7          7(20c + 4 - 2a)

Factor only 2          2 (70c + 14 - 7a)

Answer:

\theta=1.72  radians

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length and radius is given. So, we need to know the arc length formula for a circle.

That is:

s=r\theta

Where s is the arc length

r is the radius

\theta  is the angle (IN RADIANS)

We have:

s = 15.5

r = 9

Now, we substitute and find the angle:

s=r\theta\\15.5=9\theta\\\theta=\frac{15.5}{9}\\\theta=1.72

The angle, in radians, in 1.72

Identifying a constant of variation question<br><br> R= ?
jek_recluse [69]
Pressure and Volume are inversely related as:

P= \frac{R}{V}

We can also write it as:

PV=R

R is the constant of proportionality. Using the first row of given table, we can write:

2(4.155)=R \\  \\ &#10;R=8.31

Thus, the value of R, the universal gas constant is 8.31

The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Which equation can be used
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the longest side is 6.2 cm, and it is twice the length of the shortest, then we can write an equation as 2x=6.2, where x is the short side length.

Then, since a triangle has 3 sides, the medium side length is 14.5-6.2-x.

Hope that helped,
