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
Complete Question:
Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.
Write an equation using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x.
How far are Ava's feet from the balloon?
Answer:
Ava's feet is 17ft away from the balloon
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


The attached image represents the scenario
Using Pythagoras theorem (from the attachment), we have:



Take square roots of both sides


C. The first is a solution, but the second is not.
5x - y/3 = 13 ; (2,-9)
substitute the letters:
5(2) - (-9/3) = 13
10 - (-3) = 13 : note that deducting a number with a negative sign turns both sign as positive.
10 + 3 = 13 ;
13 = 13
5x - y/3 = 13 ; (3,-6)
5(3) - (-6/3) = 13
15 - (-2) = 13
15 + 2 = 13
17 = 13 not equal. not a solution
hope i could help
Hello.
First of all, let the number be t.
8 times t can be written like this:

Notice that the number is before the variable and the times sign (×) is not there.
We can write it as 8×t, but we usually write it as 8t.
The sum of means we add:
8t+21
Now, "less than" is "<" :

Therefore, the answer is

I hope it helps.
Have a nice day.

Answer:
11.9375 and just round it
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 8 pounds to 16 to get ounces and then add three and 60(5 x 12) and then add all of it together and then divide it to 16 to get 11.94 pounds or however you want to round it. If you need more a more deeper explanation just ask.
