The correct answer is A) It established rules that all of the Pilgrims had to follow.

The Mayflower Compact was an important document for the Plymouth Colony because it established rules that all of the Pilgrims had to follow.

The Mayflower was the name of the ship that the Puritans and other English people used to travel to the North America territory. They wanted to arrive at the coast of Virginia but strong winds and difficult weather conditions made them arrive at Cape Cod. Massachusetts, where they founded the colony of Plymouth. During the trip, the Puritans elaborated a document later called the Mayflower compact, that represented the first series of rules and regulations that people need to follow to succeed in the new territory.

<em>Minnesota, constituent state of the United States of America. It became the 32nd state of the union on May 11, 1858. A small extension of the northern boundary makes Minnesota the most northerly of the 48 conterminous U.S. states. (This peculiar protrusion is the result of a boundary agreement with Great Britain before the area had been carefully surveyed.) Minnesota is one of the north-central states. It is bounded by the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario to the north, by Lake Superior and the state of Wisconsin to the east, and by the states of Iowa to the south and South Dakota and North Dakota to the west. </em>

Therefore, the correct answer is option B

Is the perpendicular bisector of . Find KJ.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

x = 25

Explanation:

HK is the perpendicular bisector of GJ. What is KJ?

The complete question is attached.

Solution:

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows the equality between two expressions.

A perpendicular bisector is a line that divides another line perpendicularly (at 90 degrees) into two equal parts.

Since HK is the perpendicular bisector of GJ, HK divides line GJ into two equal parts which is GK and KJ. hence:

GK = KJ, also GK + KJ = GJ

Since GK = KJ:

2x + 10 = 3x - 15

collecting like terms:

3x - 2x = 10 + 15

simplifying gives:

x = 25
