7c-11=17 what does c equal. Plz show work. Thanks :D

1 answer:

4 0

Since you are subtracting 11 on the side with the variable, you have to add it on the other side. 17+11=28. Then, to solve the problem you are left with, 7c=28. You are multiplying on the side of the variable, so you divide 28 by 7. Your answer to the problem is C=4 i hope this helps

S KM ∥ JN? Why or why not?

Given: We have the given figure through which we can see

LK=16,

KJ=10,

LM=24,

MN=15

To Find: Whether KM || JN and the reasoning behind it.

Solution: Yes, KM || JN because $\frac{16}{10}= \frac{24}{15}$

Explanation:

For this solution, we use the concept of Similar Triangles.

Now, KM || JN if ΔLKM ~ ΔLJN (i.e., if ΔLKM is similar to ΔLJN).

Now, ∠MLK=∠NLJ

To prove similarity of the two triangles, we have to show that the sides are proportional. In other words, LK:KJ = LM:LN

$LK:KJ=LM:LN\\\\ \frac{LK}{KJ} =\frac{LM}{LN}\\\\\frac{16}{26}= \frac{24}{39}\\\\$

which is true as both sides simplify to $\frac{8}{13}$

Thus, we see that ΔLKM ~ ΔLJN (i.e., if ΔLKM is similar to ΔLJN).

Therefore, KM || JN.

To come to the reasoning, notice that

$\frac{LK}{LJ} =\frac{LM}{LN}\\\\\frac{LK}{LK+KJ} =\frac{LM}{LM+MN}\\\\\frac{LK+KJ}{LK} =\frac{LM+MN}{LM}\\\\1+\frac{KJ}{LK}=1+ \frac{MN}{LM}\\\\\frac{LK}{KJ} =\frac{LM}{MN}$
