Side BC is 4 meters long. Side CD is twice the length of the side BC. What is the length of side LM. Explain your reasoning.

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

LM = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

BC = 4

CD is twice that, so CD is 8

Now, remembering that the area of ABCD = 32 and JKLM = 72, divide 72 by 32.

You get 2.25. This is how much bigger JKLM is than ABCD.

Using that, multiply the length of CD (which is 8) by 2.25 to get the length of LM.

You'll get 18.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case each one is an independent event, therefore, the multiplication of each one would be the final probability

We have 5 Red Marbles, 4 Green Marbles, and 3 Blue Marbles, that is, there are 5 + 4 + 3 12 Marbles in total.

Now if I draw a red one, the probability would be: 5/12

When drawing another red, the probability would be: 4/11

When taking the green: 4/10

When removing the blue: 3/9

Finally, the final probability is:

P = (5/12) * (4/11) * (4/10) * (3/9)

P = 0.020

In other words, the probability of this happening is 2%

Answer:

Ф = $\frac{\pi }{4} ,\frac{5\pi}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a bit difficult to input the work here, so I uploaded an image

First we can use the trig identities to change sec²(Ф) to tan²(Ф) + 1
Then we can combine like terms
Then we can factor this as a polynomial function
Then we can set each term equal to zero and solve for Ф
The first term tan(Ф) - 2 = 0 has no solution because tan(Ф) ≠ -2 anywhere
The second term tan(Ф) - 1 = 0 has two solutions of $\frac{\pi}{4}$ and $\frac{5\pi}{4}$ so these are the solutions to the problem
