Given that ABC~LMN What is the length of AC?

Mathematics

Answer:

B. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Find the value of x

The side lengths of two similar triangles are always proportional.

Given that ∆ABC ~ ∆LMN, therefore:

\frac{AB}{LM} = \frac{AC}{LN}

AB = 5

LM = 10

AC = x + 5

LN = 3x + 3

Plug in the values

\frac{5}{10} = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 3}

Cross multiply

5(3x + 3) = 10(x + 5)

15x + 15 = 10x + 50 (distributive property)

Collect like terms

15x - 10x = -15 + 50

5x = 35

Divide both sides by 5

x = 7

✔️Find AC

AC = x + 5

Plug in the value of x

AC = 7 + 5

AC = 12

I think, I'd go with A) Always true. As 2 points is always the line. If you add third one, it will be collinear.

Solutes in the bloodstream enter cells through osmosis, which is the diffusion of fluid through a semipermeable membrane. Let C
kow [346]

Answer:

since the rate at  which concentration inside the cell is proportional to the difference in the concentration of the solute in the blood stream and the concentration within the cell, then the rate of change of concentration within the cell is equals to K(L-C).

Thus, the  required differential equation is Δc/Δt = K( L - C ).

What is the area of the figure? <br> /Users/macuser/Downloads/MS_IMB-1401012-1100604.jpg
xeze [42]
Given:
Shapes: Trapezoid and Triangle.

Trapezoid: Upper base = 14mm ; lower base = 18mm
Triangle: base = 18mm ; height = 12mm
Total height of the figure is 17 mm

Area of a trapezoid = (upper base + lower base)/2  * height
A = (14mm+18mm)/2  * (17mm-12mm)
A = 32mm/2 * 5mm
A = 16mm * 5mm
A = 80 mm²

Area of a triangle = (height * base) ÷ 2
A = (12mm * 18mm) ÷ 2
A = 216mm² ÷ 2
A = 108 mm²

Total area of the figure = 80 mm² + 108 mm² = 188mm²
