#7) M is the Midpoint of JK. Since there is no segment through M, then there is no segment bisector.

JM = 7x + 5, MK = 8x (Given)

JM ≡ MK (definition of midpoint)

JM = MK (definition of congruency)

7x + 5 = 8x (substitution)

5 = x (subtraction property of equality)

JM = 7x + 5 → JM = 7(5) + 5 → JM = 35 + 5 → JM = 40

#8) M is the Midpoint of JK. the line passing through M is line <em>l</em>, so line <em>l</em> is the segment bisector.

JM = 3x + 15, MK = 8x + 25 (Given)

JM ≡ MK (definition of midpoint)

JM = MK (definition of congruency)

3x + 15 = 8x + 25 (substitution)

15 = 5x + 25 (subtraction property of equality - subtracted 3x)

-10 = 5x (subtraction property of equality - subtracted 25)

-2 = x (division property of equality)

JM = 3x + 15 → JM = 3(-2) + 15 → JM = -6 + 15 → JM = 9

Leah is building a slide for her kids. if the latter is 7 feet tall and she wants the bottom of the slide to be 4 feet from the
nadezda [96]

The line needs to be 8.06 m long

Explanation

Given that the ladder is 7 feet tall and the bottom of the slide should be 4 m away from the ladder.

The ladder,slide and the ground connecting them makes the sides of a right angled triangle with ladder as the height and ground as the base.

base=4m

height=7m

hypotenuse can be determined using pythagoras law

b^{2} +h^{2} =H^{2} \\x^{2} 4^{2}+ 7^{2}= H^{2} \\16+49=H^{2} \\H=\sqrt{65} \\=8.06 m

Yochanan walked from home to the bus stop at an average speed of 5 km / h. He immediately got on his school bus and traveled at
kari74 [83]

Answer: 5 km walking and 30 km by bus

Step-by-step explanation:

Yochanan walked from home to the bus stop at an average speed of 5 km / h. He immediately got on his school bus and traveled at an average speed of 60 km / h until he got to school. The total distance from his home to school is 35 km, and the entire trip took 1.5 hours. How many km did Yochanan cover by walking and how many did he cover by travelling on the bus?

walking - 5km/h                                         bus - 60km/h

distance walking - d₁                                 distance bus - d₂

time walking - t₁                                         time bus - t₂

d₁ + d₂ = 35

t₁ + t₂ = 1.5

v = d/t

vwalking = d₁/t₁

5 = d₁/t₁ ⇒ d₁ = 5t₁

vbus = d₂/t₂

60 = d₂/t₂ ⇒ d₂ = 60t₂

d₁ + d₂ = 35 ⇒ 5t₁ + 60t₂ = 35

_________________________

5t₁ + 60t₂ = 35

t₁ + t₂ = 1.5  (*-5)

5t₁ + 60t₂ = 35

-5t₁ -5t₂ = -7.5   (+)

__________________________

55t₂ = 27.5

t₂ = 27.5/55 = 0.5 h

t₁ + t₂ = 1.5 ⇒ t₁ = 1.5 - 0.5 = 1h

d₁ = 5t₁ ⇒ d₁ = 5.1 = 5 km

d₂ = 60t₂ ⇒ d₂ = 30.0.5 = 30 km
