Answer:
QM = 7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Tangents to a circle from an external point are congruent.
The perimeter (P) is the sum of the sides of the triangle, that is
PL + LQ + QM + MR + RN + NP = 42
6 + LQ + QM + 8 + 8 + 6 = 42
LQ + QM + 28 = 42 ( subtract 28 from both sides )
LQ + QM = 14
Since LQ = QM , then
QM = 7
In this problem the amount of kilograms you want to fit ( lets call it x ) has a direct variation with the amount of kg of soil it can fit in ( lets cal it y )
If 2/5x = 1/3y
Now we just need to isolate x or y to discover the proportion that relates them :
You can isolate x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 5/2
2/5x(5/2) = 1/3y(5/2)
x = 5/6 y
So what that means is that 1 kg of soil takes 5/6 of the container!
Awnser : Yes it can !
I hope you understood my brief explanation. And please consider marking this awnser as Branliest. Thank you ! :)
6 / 72 = 13 / z
cross multiply
(6)(z) = (72)(13)
6z = 936
z = 936/6
z = 156 <==
Like A to C, also 6 units for C to B/ B to C.
