Answer:

ZM = 8

WM = 12

XZ = 7

XN = 21

LZ = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of the midpoint of the each of the three sides of a triangle. The centroid of a triangle is located inside the triangle and it is known as the center of gravity.

The centroid theorem for a triangle states that the centroid of a triangle is located at 2/3 of the distance from the vertex of the triangle of the middle of the opposite side.

ZM = (2/3)WM (centroid theorem)

Therefore: WZ = (1/3)WM

WM = 3WZ = 3 * 4 = 12

ZM = (2/3) * WM = 2/3 * 12 = 8

ZN = (2/3)XN (centroid theorem)

XN = (3/2)ZN = 3/2 * 14 = 21

XN = 21

XZ + ZN = XN

XZ + 14 = 21

XZ = 7

LZ = (2/3)LY (centroid theorem)

Therefore: ZY = (1/3)LY

LY = 3ZY = 3 * 10 = 30

LZ = (2/3) * LY = 2/3 * 30 = 20

$75 to $25 show your work
Vilka [71]

Answer:

decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

the percent change measures FROM the first value. A change from 50 to 75 is a change of 50% (25 is the difference between the two numbers, and 25 is 50% of 50). A change from 75 to 50 is a change of -33.3% (25 is still the difference between the two. 25 is 33.3% of 75

The equation shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun, A, in ast
gayaneshka [121]

If planet Y is k times the mean distance from the sun as planet X,

mean distance from the sun is A

T^2= A^3

k times the mean distance, we multiply A^3 with k^3

Multiply both sides by k^3

k^3T^2= k^3A^3

k^3T^2= (kA)^3

we need to get whole square on the left side to make the equivalent equation

k^3 is k^{\frac{3}{2})^2

So we replace k^3 by fractional exponent

(k^{\frac{3}{2})^2T^2)= (kA)^3

(k^{\frac{3}{2})T)^2= (kA)^3

Hence factor is k^{\frac{3}{2}}
