Answer:

<h2>perimeter of △SMP = 25</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the triangle △SMP is the sum of al the sides of the triangle.

Perimeter of △SMP = ||MS|| + ||MP|| + ||SP||

Note that the triangle △LRN, △LSM, △MPN and △SRP are all scalene triangles showing that their sides are different.

Given LM=9, NR=16 and SR=8

NR = NP+PR

Since NP = PR

NR = NP+NP

NR =2NP

NP = NR/2 = 16/2

NP = 8

From △LSM, NP = PR = MS = 8

Also since LM = MN, MN = 9

From △SRP, SR = RP = PS = 9

Also SR = MP = 8

From the equation above, perimeter of △SMP = ||MS|| + ||MP|| + ||SP||

perimeter of △SMP = 8+8+9

perimeter of △SMP = 25

−10x+3y=5 ASAP x=y−4 x ? y?

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

x = 1 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use substitution because you know that x = y - 4, and plug this into the first equation to get -10(y - 4) + 3y = 5, or -10y + 40 + 3y = 5. This is -7y = -35 so y = 5. Plug this into the 2nd equation to get that x = 1 and y = 5.
