Because K is the midpoint of JL and JK = 18, KL must also equal 18. So the equation would be 3x - 15 = 36 because you add 18 + 18. You then add 15 to both sides to get 3x = 51. Then you divide by 3 on both sides to get x = 17.
Answer:
factors of 7: 1, 7
factors of 10: 2, 5
1*-2 = -2
7*-5 = -35
...
-35 + -2 = -37
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the fifth piece is 2 3/4 inches.
Given:
1st piece of wood = 1 1/2 inches
2nd piece of wood = 1 13/16 inches
3rd piece of wood = 2 1/8 inches
f(n) = 1st term + common difference(n-1)
To get the common difference, we need to deduct the fraction from its preceding fraction.
1st piece: 1 1/2 = (2*1 + 1)/2 = 3/2
2nd piece: 1 13/16 = (16*1+13)/16 = 29/16
3rd piece: 2 1/8 = (8*2+1)/8 = 17/8
29/16 - 3/2 = 29/16 - (3/2 * 8/8) = 29/16 - 24/16 = (29-24)/16 = 5/16
17/8 - 29/16 = (17/8 *2/2) - 29/16 = 34/16 - 29/16 = (34-29)/16 = 5/16
Find: 5th piece's measurement
1st term : 1 1/2 or 3/2
common difference : 5/16
f(5) = 3/2 + 5/16 (5-1)
= 3/2 + 5/16 (4)
= 3/2 + (5*4)/16
= 3/2 + 20/16
= (3/2 * 8/8) + 20/16
= 24/16 + 20/16
= (24 + 20)/16
f(5) = 44/16
f(5) = 2 12/16 simplified to 2 3/4 inches.
2/3km........2/3 h
x km............1 h
x=2/(2/3)=6 km/h
Answer:
it's the second option. the second box is the answer. hope this helps
