Given segments JM and LM, if we visualize this, we have J--L--M forming a long segment of JM. To find the length of JL, we must find the difference between the length of JM and LM. Thus, JL = (JM - LM) = (5x - 8) - (2x - 6) = 5x - 8 - 2x + 6 (3x -2). Hence, answer is (3x - 2)<span>. </span>

nignag [31]

Answer:

shortest side = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a bit ambiguous. Do you mean (3/4) x or do you mean 3/(4x)?

I'll take it to be the first one.

(x + 3) + 4(x - 13) + (3/4)x = 3x + 6    Remove the brackets on the left

x + 3 + 4x - 52 + 0.75 x = 3x + 6      Combine

5.75x - 49 = 3x + 6                           Subtract 3x from both sides.

2.75x - 49 = 6                                     Add 49 to both sides

2.75x = 55                                          Divide by 2.75

x = 55/ 2.75

x = 20

Now for the shortest side

x + 3 = 23

4(x - 13) = 4(20 - 13) = 4*7 = 28

(3/4)*20 = 15

The shortest side = 15

Find the measures of the indicated angle
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin ? = 32/33

Taking the inverse sin of each side

sin ^-1( sin ?) = sin^-1 (32/33)

? =75.85888

To the nearest degree

? = 76

4/5z=16 solve equation (that's a fraction )
Assoli18 [71]
So we need to isolate the variable. In order to do that, we need to multiply both sides by 5/4.
Why? That's so that 4/5z will be canceled out when multiplied by 5/4 to get just z.
And so, we would get 20 as our answer.

What is the value of the expression, below, when x = 2 and y = 4?
allochka39001 [22]

Solution:

\frac{4x + y}{2y - x}

Numerator - 4x + y = 8 + 4 = 12

Denominator - 2y - x = 8 - 2 = 6

Final Answer:

12/6 = 2
