Mark wants to hang four rectangular pictures in a row on a wall so that the horizontal space between each picture is always the

same. Each picture has a length of 8 inches. The wall has a length of 74 inches. If he wants to have 12 inches of horizontal wall space before the first picture and after the fourth picture, how much space should he leave between pictures?

Answer:

18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Mark wants to hang four rectangular pictures in a row on a wall so that the horizontal space between each picture is always same.

Length of  each picture=8 inches

Length of wall=74 inches

Horizontal space before first picture and after the fourth picture=12 inches

We have to find space between pictures.

Let x be the space between pictures

12+12+8+8+8+8+x=74

x+56=74

x=74-56=18

Hence, the distance between pictures=18 inches

Answer: x= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the converse of basic proportionality theorem,

If in ΔABC , DE is a line drawn from AB to AC such that \dfrac{AD}{DB}=\dfrac{AE}{EB}

then, DE is parallel to the third side BC.

Applying converse of basic proportionality theorem, to get NO parallel to KJ, we must have

\dfrac{LO}{OJ}=\dfrac{LN}{NK}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x-4}{x}=\dfrac{x-3}{x+2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ (x-4)(x+2)=x(x-3)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-2x-8=x^2-3x\\\\\Rightarrow\ -2x+3x=8\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8

Hence, the value of x should be 8, so that Line segment N O is parallel to line segment K J.

Roger can run one mile in 18 minutes. jeff can run one mile in 15 minutes. if jeff gives roger a 1 minute head start, how long w
gladu [14]

Alright, lets get started.

Roger can run one mile in 18 minutes.

Jeff can run one mile in 15 minutes.

Suppose in x minutes, they both will catch up.

Roger runs in 18 minutes = 1 mile

So, Roger will run in 1 minute = \frac{1}{18} miles

So, Roger will run in x minutes = \frac{x}{18} miles

Jeff runs in 15 minues = 1 mile

So, Jeff will run in 1 minute = \frac{1}{15} mile

As Jeff gives roger a 1 minute head start, means Jeff will have x-1 minute time to run

So, Jeff will run in (x-1) minute = \frac{x-1}{15}

As both are cathing up means they both runs same distance, means

\frac{x}{18} =\frac{x-1}{15}

Cross Multiplying

15 x = 18x - 18

3 x = 18

x = 6 minutes

So for calculating distance = speed * time

Distance = \frac{1}{18} *6 = \frac{1}{3} miles

It means it will take 1/3 or 0.33 miles before jeff catches up to roger.   :   Answer

Hope it will help :)

What is the value of b?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

30

b =   \sqrt{ {c}^{2}  -  {a}^{ {2} } }

b =  \sqrt{ {34}^{2}  -  {16}^{2} }

b = \sqrt{1156 - 256}

b =  \sqrt{900}

b =  30
