A line segment has two endpoints and you can measure them, as shown in the picture with endpoints A and B.

Whereas, A ray is a part of a line that has one endpoint and goes on infinitely in only one direction. You cannot measure the length of a ray. (second picture with the arrow)

Graph.<br><br> y+4=2/5(x−3)<br> plz help

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use DESMOS to make the graph. You can either rearrange the equation to put it in the form y = mx + b, or leave it as written. The attached graph, has bot, and they overlap.

y+4=2/5(x−3)

y = (2/5)x-5.2

The area of a plot of land is 2496 square meters. A small part of the land is fenced. The ratio of the area of the plot of land

AfilCa [17]

My late response (haha): First, you would write a proportion.

Step 1: 2496 over 48 = x over 31
(x represents the area of the land that is not fenced).

Step 2: Cross multiply
2496 times 31 and x times 48

Step 3: Calculate
77376 = 48x

Step 4: Divide both sides by 48
77376/48 = 1612
48x/48 = x

Step 5: Write it as a sentence
The area of the land that is not fenced is 1612 squared meters.

Hope that helped! Good luck! :]

Will mark as brainliest (must show work)

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

With those problems if you are not given a picture is good we draw one.

Because an angle bisector forms 2 congruent angles and because is given that < XVY ≅ < YVW then

m < XVY = m < YVW

2x+7 = x+15 , subtract x and 7 from both sides to isolate the like terms

2x-x = 15-7, combine like terms

x = 8

From the picture and the given we see that

m < XVW = m < XVY + m < YVW

m < XVW = 2x+7 + x+15 , combine like terms

m < XVW = 3x + 22, substitute x for 8

m < XVW = 3*8 + 22

m < XVW = 46

Check our work:

m < XVY = 2x+7 = 2*8 +7 = 16 +7 = 23

m < YVW = x+15 = 8 +15 = 23

m < XVW = m < XVY + m < YVW = 23+23 =46

In ΔUVW, w = 3 inches, ∠W=23° and ∠U=73°. Find the length of u, to the nearest 10th of an inch.

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

<h2>7.4inches</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the attachment for the diagram. Sine rule will be used to get the unknown side of the triangle.

According to the rule;

$\frac{u}{sinU} = \frac{v}{sinV} = \frac{w}{sinW}\\\frac{u}{sinU} = \frac{w}{sinW}$

Given w = 3 in, ∠W=23° and ∠U=73°, on substituting into the equation above to get u we have;

$\frac{u}{sin73^{0} } = \frac{3}{sin23^{0} }\\usin23^{0} = 3sin73^{0}\\u = \frac{3sin73^{0} }{sin23^{0} }\\u = \frac{2.87}{0.39} \\u = 7.358\\u = 7.4in$

The length of u is 7.4inches to nearest 10th of an inch
