Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

JK =5x+17,

KL = x -1,

JL=7x-9

We need to find the range of possible values for x.

It can be assumed that K is a mid point of JL.

JL = JK + KL

Putting all the values,

7x-9 = 5x+17 + x -1

Taking like terms together,

7x-5x-x = 17-1+9

x = 25

So, the value of x is 25.

Answer:

if they are similar then their sides are proportional and the following would be true:

40/30 = 48/36

reduce both sides:

4/3 = 4/3

so, yes, they are similar.

What information do you need to find the area of a triangle using trigonometry?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Formula of the area of triangle
A=(1/2)a*b*sin(C)
a, b - sides
C- an angle between sides a and b.
Probably, this question means that you need to know sin of the angle.

An article gave the following summary information for fracture strengths (MPa) of n = 196 ceramic bars fired in a particular kil

Oliga [24]

Answer:

54.80 MPa to 55.92 MPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample mean fracture strength (x) = 55.36 MPa

Sample standard deviation (s) = 3.99 MPa

Sample size (n) = 196.

The upper and lower bounds for a 95% confidence interval are given by:

$U=x+1.960*\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} \\L=x-1.960*\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

The upper and lower bounds of the confidence interval are;

$U=55.36+1.960*\frac{3.99}{\sqrt{196}}\\U= 55.92\\L=55.36-1.960*\frac{3.99}{\sqrt{196}}\\L= 54.80\\$

The 95% confidence interval for true average fracture strength is 54.80 MPa to 55.92 MPa
