Answer:

JL = 78

Step-by-step explanation:

MN is a midsegment. Based on the midsegment theorem,

MN = ½(JL)

MN = 5x - 16

JL = 4x + 34

Plug in the value

5x - 16 = ½(4x + 34)

5x - 16 = ½*4x + ½*34

5x - 16 = 2x + 17

Collect like terms

5x - 2x = 16 + 17

3x = 33

Divide both sides by 3

x = 11

✔️JL = 4x + 34

Plug in the value of x

JL = 4(11) + 34

JL = 44 + 34

JL = 78

Find the slope of line passing through the two points, (7, 1) and (-2, 1).

Mamont248 [21]

Answer: m = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = y2 - y1/,x2 - x1 : meaning increase in y divided by increase in x . it can also be written as ∆y/∆x

y1= 1, y2 = 1, x1 = 7, x2 = -2

Substitute for those values in the equation above

m = 1 -1/-2 - 7

= 0/-9

Therefore,

m = 0

The slope of the line passing through those coordinates = 0

The expression πr² is used to determine the area of a circle, where r is the length of the radius. What does the expression π(5b

Monica [59]

The answer is c because all you are doing here is subbing the variable r for 5b.

Find the value of k so that the graph of 13y + kx = 4 and the line containing the points (5, -8) and (2, 4) are parallel.

guajiro [1.7K]

the graph of 13y + kx = 4 and the line containing the points (5, -8) and (2, 4) are parallel.

We find the slope of parallel line using two given points

(5, -8) and (2, 4)

Slope formula is

$slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$slope = \frac{4-(-8)}{2-5}$

$slope = \frac{12)}{-3}=-4$

so slope = -4

Slope of any two parallel lines are always equal

Lets find the slope of the equation 13y + kx = 4

Subtract kx on both sides

13 y = -kx + 4

Divide both sides by 13

$y= \frac{-kx}{13} + \frac{4}{13}$

Now slope = -k/13

We know slope of parallel lines are same

So the slope of 13y + kx = 4 is also -4

Hence we equation the slope and find out k

$\frac{-k}{13}=-4$

Multiply by 13 on both sides and divide by -1

k = 52

the value of k = 52
