Answer:

A. 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AB is parallel to A'B', therefore,

CB/CB' = CA/CA'

CB' = 7

CB = CB' + BB' = 7 + BB'

CA' = 6

CA = CA' + AA' = 6 + 3 = 9

Plug in the values

(7 + BB')/7 = 9/6

(7 + BB')/7 = 3/2

Cross multiply

2(7 + BB') = 7(3)

14 + 2BB' = 21

Subtract 14 from both sides

2BB' = 21 - 14

2BB' = 7

Divide both sides by 2

BB' = 7/2

BB' = 3.5

3/(x+2) = 2/x

multiply both fractions by x(x+2) to cancel out the bottoms

so it becomes 3x = 2x+4

ow subtract 2X from both sides and you get

x = 4

so it took Juan 4 hours

 it took Yumi 2 hours more so 4+2 = 6 hours

Can someone explain this step by step? I'm very confused on how to solve it. Thanks!
Rashid [163]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

I will show each step algebraically. If you need further explanation, feel free to ask questions :)

\frac{x}{2} +7=3\\                     Rewrite

\frac{x}{2} =-4                        Subtract 7

x =-8                        Multiply by reciprocal (2/1)

I hope this helps!

LM = 9, NR = 16, SR = 8. Find the perimeter of triangle LRN.
sweet [91]
<h2>D. 50 units</h2>

Hi, I’m Lena and I will be answering your question to the best of my ability. If you have any further questions after my answer, do not hesitate to ask me! ツ

♡ Let’s look at the main important thing(s) that will lead you in the correct path.

♥ The perimeter is the outside, it is <em>around</em> the figure. When you see those inner triangles, do not pay attention to them! They are just there to make your overthink the question.

♡ Let's solve!

♥ To begin, let's take LM. It already gives you half the segment, so all you need to do is double the number. 9*2=18.

♥ Now, let's take a look at NR. They already give you the segment as a whole, so you do not need to worry about it!

♥ Look at SR. You do the same thing as you did to LM, double the number. 8*2=16.

Now, we add all the numbers to get our final answer.

18+16+16=50.
