By the transversal theorem, if segments on a transversal cut by parallel lines are equal, then similar segments cut by the same parallel lines on another transversal are also equal.
Therefore
JK=KL=LM=5
=>
JM=3*5=15

The captain of a boat knows that a lighthouse on the coast is 100 ft

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Height of the light house $=7.5\ feet$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance of light house from boat = 100 ft

Angle of elevation from boat to the top of light house = 2°

Height above water while taking measurement = 4 ft

The figure of the situation is shown below.

For Δ ABC

$\tan2\°=\frac {AB}{BC}$

$\tan2\°=\frac {AB}{100}$

$0.035=\frac {AB}{100}$

Multiplying both sides by 100.

$100\times 0.035=100\times\frac {AB}{100}$

$3.5=AB$

∴ $AB=3.5$

Height of the light house $=3.5+4=7.5\ feet$

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Ten times a number minus 3 is greater than three times the number plus eleven

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the inequality

10x-3 > 3x+11

Let

x ----> a number

As a word problem will be

10x -----> Ten times a number x

+ ----> plus

-3 -----> negative 3

> greater than

3x ----> three times a number x

11 ----> eleven

therefore

Ten times a number minus 3 is greater than three times the number plus eleven
