Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ S is the centroid of ΔNLM

∴ S divides NG at ratio 1 : 2 from the base

∴SQ = 1/2 NS

∴3x - 5 = 1/2 (4x)

∴3x - 5 = 2x

∴3x - 2x = 5

∴x = 5

∴ NS = 4 × 5 = 20 cm

Paolo was asked to find the original dimension of an enlarged pentagon. His solution is shown next to the pentagons.
NISA [10]
The correct answer is the second choice.

Paolo made an error when he cross multiplied the proportion. He should have multiplied the 3 and the 8 and also the 12 and the x.

The second line should be:

12x = 24

Can someone help me answer these two questions
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

C) 7=y=5x+11

B) m=-4/5, b=13/5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Problem 1:</u>

A function is linear if its slope is constant and/or its graph is straight (that means 1-degree polynomials only). Therefore, C is the only correct answer.

<u>Problem 2:</u>

Convert to slope-intercept form (y=mx+b):

4x+5y=13

5y=13-4x

y=13/5-4/5x

y=-4/5x+13/5

Now we can see that since the original equation is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), the slope, m, is -4/5, and the y-intercept, b, is 13/5, making option B the correct answer.

How to write slope-intercept form through (-1,3) and a slope of -1
oksian1 [2.3K]

The slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the slope m = -1 and the point (-1, 3). Substitute:

3=(-1)(-1)+b

3=1+b      <em>subtract 1 from both sides</em>

2=b\to b=2

<h3>Answer: y = -x + 2</h3>
