Ok so for number 5, AB is proportional to BC just like PQ is proportional to QR. AB = 9, BC = 15, PQ = 3, and QR = x. 9/15 = 3/x. Cross Multiply: This gives you - 9x = 45. Divide both sides by 9, and you get x = 5. QR = 5
Short answer: C
Remark
Since b is all by itself in equation 2, Substitute it into equation 1.
2a + 3b = 5
b = a - 5 Put this result in equation 1. Be sure and use brackets.
2a + 3(a - 5) = 5 Remove the brackets.
2a + 3a - 15 = 5 Notice the -5 inside the brackets becomes - 15
Combine like terms on the left.
5a - 15 = 5 Add 15 to both sides
5a = 5 + 15
5a = 20 Divide by 5
a = 20/5
a = 4
So far, c is the only possible answer.
b = a - 5
b = 4 - 5
b = - 1
I don't know if this is right but don't get mad I think it would be -5
The sum (addition) of n and 5
n + 5
Answer:
m<B=m<K=100
m<A=m<J=133
m<L=m<C=41
m<M=m<D=86
Step-by-step explanation:
Since
, the corresponding angles are congruent.
This implies that:

m<L=41=m<C
m<M=86=m<D
The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.
m<B+133+41+86=360
m<B+260=360
m<B=360-260
m<B=m<K=100
