<h3>Answer: MN = 7</h3>

Explanation:

LM + MN = LN by the segment addition postulate. This says we can break up a segment into smaller pieces, and have those pieces add back up to the original length.

Plug LM = 5 and LN = 12 into the equation and isolate MN to get

LM + MN = LN

5 + MN = 12

MN = 12-5

MN = 7

Answer:

c is the answer since you are trying to make the ys number (-/+) of the value the other y contains

(3) so you will multiply the first equation by -3 to be able to eliminate y

Answer: $f'(1)=\dfrac{4}{2y+1}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the tangent, you need to find the derivative with respect to x.

Then substitute x = 1 into the derivative.

Given: 0 = 2x² - xy - y²

Derivative: 0 = 4x - y' - 2yy'

Solve for y': 2yy' + y' = 4x

y'(2y + 1) = 4x

$y'=\dfrac{4x}{2y+1}$

$\text{Substitute x = 1:}\quad y'(1)=\dfrac{4}{2y+1}$

What is the length of side BC if AC is 5 square root 2 m?

Jet001 [13]

This is a right triangle, so AC is a hypotenuse. The other angles are each 45 degrees, so the legs AB and BC are equal length. a^2 + b^2 = c^2 a = b 2a^2 = (5sqrt2)^2 = 50 a^2 = 25 a = 5 Answer: 5
