Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose J, K, L, M, N are points on the same line.


MK = MN + (-KN) = MN - KN = 9x - 11 - x - 3 = 8x - 14


Since LK = MK and LK = 7x - 10, then


7x - 10 = 8x - 14


8x - 7x = -10 + 14


x = 4


LJ = MK + KJ


MK = LK = 7x - 10 = 7(4) - 10 = 28 - 10 = 18


LJ = 18 + 28 = 46

Answer:

LJ=46

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose J,K,L,M,N are all point lie on the same line

We are given tha LM=MK

LK=7x-10

KN=x+3

MN=9x-11

KJ=28

We have to find LJ

MK=MN+NK=MN+(-KN)=MN-KN

MK=9k-11-x-3

MK=8x-14

LK=MK=8x-14

7x-10=8x-14

14-10=8x-7x

x=4

LJ=LK+KJ

Substitute x=4

LJ=7(4)-10+28=46

Hence, LJ=46

Show that in any group of 101 people there are at least two persons having the same number friends (It is assumed that if a pers
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that if possible in the group of 101, each had a different number of friends.  Then the no of friends 101 persons have 0,1,2,....100 only since number of friends are integers and non negative.

Say P has 100 friends then P has all other persons as friends.  In this case, there cannot be any one who has 0 friend.  So a contradiction.  Hence proved

Part ii: EVen if instead of 101, say n people are there same proof follows as

if different number of friends then they would be 0,1,2...n-1

If one person has n-1 friends then there cannot be any one who does not have any friend.

Thus same proof follows.

-4k + 2(5k − 6) = −3k – 48
nalin [4]

Answer:

k = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-4k + 2(5k − 6) = −3k – 48

Distribute on the left side.

-4k + 10k - 12 = -3k - 48

Combine like terms on the left side.

6k - 12 = -3k - 48

Add 3k to both sides.

9k - 12 = -48

Add 12 to both sides.

9k = -36

Divide both sides by 9.

k = -4

Using the quadratic formula, what is the value of x for x^2-4+5=0​
PSYCHO15rus [73]

value of x is: x= i and x= -i

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of x from x^2-4+5=0​ using quadratic formula.

The term is: x^2+1=0​

The quadratic formula is:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\

Where a = 1, b=0,c=1

Putting values:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\frac{0\pm\sqrt{(0)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}\\x=\frac{\pm\sqrt{-4}}{2}\\x=\frac{\pm2i}{2}\\x=\pm i

So, value of x is: x= i and x= -i

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

See below ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

19.

  • \frac{x-1}{2} - \frac{x-3}{5} - \frac{x-7}{10} + \frac{x-2}{5}
  • \frac{5(x-1)-2(x-3)-(x-7)+2(x-2)}{10}
  • \frac{5x-5-2x+6-x+7+2x-4}{10}
  • \frac{4x+4}{10}
  • \frac{2x+2}{5}

20.

  • \frac{2x+3}{2x} + \frac{x+3}{4x} - \frac{18x+6}{8x^{2} }
  • \frac{4x(2x+3)+2x(x+3)-(18x+6)}{8x^{2} }
  • \frac{8x^{2} +12x+2x^{2} +6x-18x-6}{8x^{2} }
  • \frac{10x^{2}-6}{8x^{2} }
  • \frac{5x^{2}-3}{4x^{2} }
