I need some help please! K is the midpoint or segment JL. JL=3x-15 JK=18 Find x.

1 answer:

4 0

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.

The length of a rectangle is 1 more than 3 times the width. 5 times the length is 45 more than the perimeter. Find the dimension

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

width = w

length= 3w+1

perimeter= 5(3w+1) -45

perimeter = 2(l+b)

5(3w+1) -45 = 2{(3w+1)+w}

15w - 40 = 8w+2

6w = 42

w =7

therefore width = 7

length= 3w+1 = 22

perimeter= 65

blagie [28]

Answer:

Catherine is not correct (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

the two points from the graph are

(4,40) and (7,70)

substitute the values in the formula

$m=\frac{70-40}{7-4}\\m=\frac{30}{3}\\m=10$

therefore

4. The side lengths of a square are each 5p. By adding 1 to the length and subtracting 1 from the width, a rectangle is made. Wh

Vilka [71]

Answer:

D. 25p² - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Each side length of a square = 5p

Length of rectangle = 5p + 1

Width of the rectangle = 5p - 1

Area of rectangle = Length × Width

Area of rectangle = (5p + 1)(5p - 1)

= 5p(5p - 1) +1(5p - 1) (distributive property)

= 25p² - 5p + 5p - 1

Area = 25p² - 1
