To find the answer, we need to first understand the feature of similar triangle, where the sides of two triangle would be of the same ratio.

In this case, the equation that can be set to show that they have the same ratio:

MN/ON = LM/OP

LM and OP are used to find the ratio as they are given.

MN/12 = 42/14

MN = (42/14) x 12

MN = 36cm

Therefore, the answe is 36cm.

Hope it helps!

Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 6+30

The greatest common factor between 6 and 30 would be 6, but I need to see the problem on the original piece of paper of a picture to understand the distributive property part of your question.

A runner ran 2/3 of a 5 kilometer race in 21 minutes. They ran the entire race at a constant speed.

alekssr [168]

A)
distance covered
5*2/3 = 3.333
time taken = 21min
this means it takes
5*6.306 = 31.53 to covers 5 km
b) 21min/3.33 = 6.306 time taken to ran 1 km

Simplify the function c(x)=x^2+4x-5 over x+5

kolbaska11 [484]

x2 + 4x = 5. x2 + 4x = 5. x2 + 4x – 5 = 0

I think, but I may be wrong.

Find the missing value for log4 9- log4 11= log 4 [ ]

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there,

To get started, recall the logarithm rules. For this question, we can use the log rule specifically when subtracting two log functions that have the same base:

$log_b\alpha -log_b\beta =log_b[\frac{\alpha }{\beta } ]$

In this prompt, our base is 4, so b in the above formula. Using this formula, we can find the missing argument (the number inside of the log, what we are asked to solve for):

$log_49-log_411=log_4[\frac{9}{11} ]\\$ hence the missing argument is 9/11

At this point, there is no easier say to simplify, unless you wish to approximate 9/11 as 0.818. If you wish to solve for the exponent, you will have to use common log or natural log to do so.
