Let P = perimeter

P = 3x + 5

Let x = 10

P = 3(10) + 5

P = 30 + 5

P = 35

Point K is on line segment JL. Given JK = 2x – 2, KL

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

KL = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

JK + KL = JL

2x – 2 + x – 9 = 2x + 8

Combine like terms

3x -11 = 2x+8

Subtract 2x from each side

3x-2x -11 = 2x+8-2x

x-11 = 8

Add 11 to each side

x-11+11 = 8+11

x = 19

KL = x – 9

= 19-9

= 10

Luigi is an urban planner. As an independent contractor, he charges a $140 fee plus $25 per hour for

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Function: $y=140+25x$

Amount earned for 10 hours of work: $\$390$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of hours worked on a project and "y" the total amount Luigi charges for a project.

Based on the data given in the exercise, you can identify that:

$140 is a fixed amount.
For each hour worked on the project, Luigi charges $25. This can be expressed as: $25x$

Then, the total amount he charges for a project is the sum of $140 and $25x$ . This can be represented with the following function:

$y=140+25x$

To calculate the amount of money earned for 10 hours of work, you must substitute $x=10$ into the function and evaluate. Then:

$y=140+25(10)\\\\y=390$

Help ASAP!!<br><br> i need help finding out the pattern of 3 and 4

melomori [17]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For 3, we have:

1, 3, 6, ___, 15, 21, _____, 36, _______

Let's try to determine the pattern. From 1 to 3, we added 2.

From 3 to 6, we added 3.

So, it seems that the fourth term would be to add 4, and then add 5. Let's try it:

6+4=10

10+5=15.

So, it seems we're correct. So, we will add 6, then 7, and then 8, etc. Therefore, our correct sequence would be:

1 (+2), 3 (+3), 6 (+4), 10 (+5), 15 (+6), 21 (+7), 28 (+8), 36 (+9), 45

For 4, we have:

100, _____, 64, ______, 36, 25, _______

Notice that these all are perfect squares. 10 squared is 100, 8 squared is 64, etc. Thus, we can rewrite this as:

10², _____, 8², ______, 6², 5², ______

Therefore, our blanks would be:

10², 9², 8², 7², 6², 5², 4².

Evaluated, this woul be:

100, 81, 64, 49, 36, 25, 16.

And we're done!
