Answer: JL = 25
Step-by-step explanation: Segment JM is the total measure of the line segment and it equals 45.
Suppose first segment JK measures d.
The total ratio is the sum of each part
d + 4d + 4d = 9d
The sum of each part corresponds to the total measure of the line segment. Then:
9d = 45
d = 5
Segment JL is
JL = d + 4d
JL = 5d
JL = 5.5
JL = 25
Segment JL measures 25 units.
Answer:
60 seconds, 7715 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Plane A and B start out 615 feet apart, and we find this by subtracting the height of plane A from plane B, getting 5000-4385=615. Now we have to find how many more feet of altitude plane A is gaining per second over plane B.
To find this we subtract 45.25 from 55.5 and get 10.25 feet per second. Now to find out how many seconds until they'll be at the same altitude we simply divide 615 by 10.25, getting 60 seconds.
For the second part, to find the altitude at this point, we simply multiply the altitude gain of one of the planes per second by the time of 60 seconds to get how much altitude they gained over that time, and add it to the starting altitude. Doing this with plane B we get 45.25*60=2715, and we add that to 5000 to get the final answer of 7715.
24 divided by 3 = 8
but thers two third so 8+8=16

Hope this helps!
1. Place your compass point on X and measure the distance to point Y. Swing an arc of this size above (or below) the segment.
2. Without changing the span on the compass, place the compass point on Y and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc.
3. Label the point of intersection as the third vertex of the equilateral triangle.
4. Use you straight edge and connect the points.
The only math term I can think of is geometry and it means when a solid is cut through parallel to the base.
EDIT: After further research since it was all I could think of. This is the only math term for what you are looking for.
