Answer:

9.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shapes are similar, we can write a proportion. Let x be the length of MN.

9/12 = 7.2/x Write a proportion.

9x = 12(7.2) Use cross products.

9x = 86.4 Multiply.

x = 9.6 Divide both sides by 9.

Side MN is 9.6 cm.

<h3>Answer:   -6/5</h3>

Explanation:

The blue diagonal line goes through the two points (0,2) and (5,-4). These are shown as the dark blue enlarged points. You can pick any other points you want that are on the diagonal line, though these are the easiest as they stand out the most.

Use the slope formula to find the slope through these points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-4-2)/(5-0)

m = (-6)/(5)

m = -6/5

The negative slope means the line goes downhill as you move from left to right along the diagonal line.

which of the following ordered pairs is a solution of the equation -2y + 9 = -x? A.(2,5) B.(-3,15) C.(4,-1)
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-2y + 9 = -x

x - 2y = -9

Plug in each set of points and see if the equation holds true.

A. 2 - 2(5) = ?

B. -3 - 2(15) = ?

C. 4 - 2(-1) = ?

I don't think that any of them work.
