Given: l║m, M ∉ l, M ∉ m. The distance between point M and line l is 4 cm, The distance between M and line m is 3 cm. Find the d

Answer: The distance between m and I can 7 cm or 1 cm.

Explanation:

According to the question, distance between point M and line m= 3 cm

Distance between point M and line I=4 cm

Since, according to the given data there can be two cases possible.

M can be a point between these two lines

In this case the distance between m and I = distance between point M and line m + distance between point M and line I=  3+4=7 cm

M can be the point above the line m(where line m is above the line I)

In this case the distance between m and I= Distance between point M and line I- distance between point M and line I= 4-3=1 cm

Note: we can not take the case in which M is the point above the line I  where line I is above the line m because in that case distance between M and m must be greater than 3 which can not be possible.

Claire is putting up a fence around her rectangular garden. The length is four less than double the width. The perimeter is 22 f
Doss [256]

Answer:

The dimensions are 6 by 5 feet.

Length = 6 feet.

Width = 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = L

Let the width = W

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

L = 2W - 4 ........equation 1

22 = 2L + 2W .......equation 2

Substituting the value of "L" into equation 2, we have;

22 = 2(2W - 4) + 2W

22 = 4W - 8 + 2W

22 + 8 = 6W

30 = 6W

W = 30/6

Width, W = 5 feet.

To find the length, L

Substituting the value of "W" into equation 1, we have;

L = 2W - 4

L = 2(5) - 4

L = 10-4

Length, L =6 feet

Therefore, the dimensions of the garden are 6 by 5 feet.

Evaluate twenty-five minus three x for x equals zero, one, two, three, and four. Which of the following correctly describes the
laiz [17]

Answer:

You take turns plugging in each number for your answers. I’ll list them below.

6(0) - (0)2 = 0

6(1) - (1)2 = 4

6(2) - (2)2 = 8

6(3) - (3)2 = 12

6(4) - (4)2 = 16

6(5) - (5)2 = 20

6(6) - (6)2 = 24

The pattern I’ve noticed is every time you increase the value from the previous meaning for x, the solution increases by 4. I hope this helps and let me know if I’m right.

Please answer this multiple choice question CORRECTLY for 30 points and brainliest!!
JulijaS [17]

Solve the inequality for x:

5x - 3 ≤ 7x +7

Subtract 7x from each side:

-2x -3 ≤ 7

Add 3 to each side:

-2x ≤ 10

Divide both sides by -2, also when dividing  both sides of an inequality you flip the direction of the inequality sign:

x ≥ -5

The dot will be on -5, because the inequality includes equal to, the dot is solid and is greater than, the arrow will point to the right.

The correct answer is D.
