Mathematics
1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

  7

Step-by-step explanation:

The arrows on the diagonal lines mean those lines are parallel. That means the triangles are similar, so corresponding sides have the same ratio.

There are many ways we can write the proportion expressing that fact. It is convenient to do so with the variable in the numerator:

  (3x -6)/12 = 10/8

Multiplying by 4, we have ...

  x -2 = 5

  x = 7 . . . . . . add 2

The figure below is half of a figure with its line of symmetry shown. Which figure below will combine with
Leokris [45]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation: A is not possible because the shape and the way it is drawn is nearly the same as the figure given. The shape of B is different from the given shape. C is a little too flat to  be considered symmetrical to the figure. Which leaves only option D.

Hope this helped :D

In circle O, what is m∠MAJ?
ira [324]

we know that

The measure of the interior angle is the half-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite.

so

<u>Find the measure of the angle LAM</u>

m∠LAM is equal to

\frac{1}{2}*[arc\ KJ+arc\ LM]= \frac{1}{2}*[170+80]\\\\=125\ degrees

<u>Find the measure of the angle MAJ</u>

we know that

m∠LAM+m∠MAJ=180° ------> by supplementary angles

m∠MAJ=(180-125)

m∠MAJ=55°

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The measure of the angle MAJ is 55\ degrees

a line is perpendicular to y = 3/7x - 2 and intersects the point (3,3). What is the equation of this perpendicular line?
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

y = -7/3x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the slope of the perpendicular line

Do this by taking the negative inverse of the first line

m = -7/3

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

y = mx + b

y = -7/3x + b

3 = -7/3(3) + b

3 = -7 + b

b = 10

You should get y = -7/3x + 10 as your final answer.
