In the diagram, △NPQ ∼ △NLM and PL = 8.

Answer:

x = 14

NP = 3.66

NL = 8.01

Step-by-step explanation:

since △NPQ ∼ △NLM

<L = <P

3x + 18 = 60

3x = 60 - 18

3x = 42

x = 42/3

x = 14

Similarly;

PN/PL = QN/QM

y/8 = 3.2/7

Cross multiply

7y = 3.2* 8

7y = 25.6

y = 25.6/7

y = 3.66

Hence NP = 3.66

Also

NP/NQ = NL/NM

3.66/3.2 = NL/7

3.2NL = 7 * 3.66

3.2NL =  25.62

NL = 25.62/3.2

NL = 8.01

A band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD. The band writes and records ​60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD.
scoray [572]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD and that the band writes and records ​60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD. Therefore, the total songs will be:

= 15 + (60% × 15)

= 15 + (0.6 × 15)

= 15 + 9

= 24 songs.

During the editing​ process, ​75% of the songs are removed. The total number of songs that will be there on the final​ CD will be:

= 24 - (75% × 24)

= 24 - (0.75 × 24)

= 24 - 18

= 6

6 songs will be there on the final CD.

State whether the following statements are true or false, and explain your reasoning.
Masja [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A square is a rectangle.   True

Reason: Property of Rectangle: (i) Opposite sides are equal and parallel. (ii) Each angle is 90 (iii) Diagonals are equal and bisect each other.

A square hold all these properties. A square is  a rectangle.

b) A polygon with 21 sides has 432 possible diagonals. False

Reason: Number of diagonals of a polygon = \frac{n(n-3)}{2}

n --> number of sides of a polygon.

= \frac{21*18}{2} = 189 diagonals

c) All three angles in an Isosceles triangle are equal. False

Reason: In an isosceles triangle, two angles are equal.

If three angles are equal, then that is an equilateral triangle.

d) The measures of the exterior angles of a nonagon, a nine-sided figure, have a sum of 360°. True.

Reason: The sum of measures of the exterior angles  of any polygon is 360
