Answer:

<h2>Pete played 1.5 times the number of matches that Jack played.</h2><h2 />

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Pete played 18 tennis matches in a week.</u>

P = 18

<u>Jack played 6 fewer matches than Pete. </u>

J = P - 6

J = 18 - 6

J = 12

<u>How many times the number of matches pete played is the number of matches jack played?</u>

<u />

18 / 12 = 1.5

Pete played 1.5 times the number of matches that Jack played.

Answer:

Pete played 1.5 times the amount of matches Jack did.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, first find the number that Jack played. Since he played 6 fewer than Pete we can solve by subtracting 6 from Pete's number.

18 - 6 = 12

Now to find how many more times higher it is, divide the number Pete does by Jack's number. 18/12 = 1.5

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: $x^{-a} = \frac{1}{x^a}$

a. $4^{-3} = \frac{1}{4^3} = \frac{1}{64}$

b. $13^{-2} = \frac{1}{13^2} = \frac{1}{169}$

c. $(-3)^{-2} = \frac{1}{-3^2} = \frac{1}{9}$

JKLM is a rhombus. KM is 6 and JL is 8. Find the perimeter of the rhombus. image of rhombus JKLM with diagonals JL and KM inters

VLD [36.1K]

If a quadrilateral is a rhombus then:

i) all its sides have equal length,

and

ii) the 2 diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other.

The 2 diagonals of rhombus JKLM intersect at N.

Then m(MNJ)=90°, |JN|=4 and |NM|=3 units

thus, by the Pythagorean theorem,

$|MJ|= \sqrt{ 3^{2} + 4^{2} }= \sqrt{9+16}= \sqrt{25}=5$

The perimeter of the rhombus is 4*5 units=20 units.

Answer: 20 units
