9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property does not appear to be involved in this question.

Let n represent the number of Noah's pencils. Then Andrew's total is ...

  3n +5 = 17

  3n = 12 . . . . . subtract 5 from both sides

  n = 4 . . . . . .  divide both sides by 3

Noah has 4 pencils.

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. The length of LM is 3√3 cms.

<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. The sum of all the angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°.

The triangle formed by MN, MO, and NO is an equilateral triangle, with the length of each side of the triangle equal to the radius of the triangle. Therefore, the length of MN will be,

MN = r

Now, the length of arc MN can be written as,

2 × π × r × (60° /360°) = π

r = 360 / (60 × 2)

r = 3 cms

Further, the radius of the circle can be written as,

LO = ON = OM = MN = Radius = 3 cms

Since, the triangle formed in a semicircle is a right-angle triangle, therefore, using the Pythagorean theorem we can write,

LM² + MN² = LN²

LM² + MN² = (LO + ON)²

LM² + r² = (r+r)²

LM² + r² = 4r²

LM² = 3r²

LM² = 3(3²)

LM = √27 cms

LM = 3√3 cms

Hence, the length of LM is 3√3 cms.
