Answer:

  • 112 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • AB = 192 cm
  • AC : CB = 1 : 3
  • CD = BC/12
  • The distance between midpoints of AD and CB = x

<u>Find the length of AC and CB:</u>

  • AC + CB = AB
  • AC + 3AC = 192
  • 4AC = 192
  • AC = 192/4
  • AC = 48 cm

<u>Find CB:</u>

  • CB = 3AC = 3*48 = 144 cm

<u>Find the length of CD:</u>

  • CD = BC/12 = 144/12 = 12 cm

<u>Find the length of AD:</u>

  • AD = AC - CD = 48 - 12 = 36 cm

<u>Find the midpoint of AD:</u>

  • m(AD) = 36/2 = 18 cm

<u>Find the midpoint of CB:</u>

  • m(CB) = AC + 1/2CB = 48 + 144/2 = 48 + 82 = 130 cm

<u>Find the distance between the midpoints:</u>

  • x = 130 - 18 = 112 cm

Find the value of that makes m ll n.
Alja [10]

Answer: x = 108

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're given a diagram and

we're asked to find the value of x that would make m ll n.

We can see that the angles that are marked in the diagram

are same-side interior angles since they lie on the same side

of the transversal and they lie on the interior of lines m and n.

Therefore, in order for line m to be parallel to line n,

these angles must be supplementary.

In other words, they must add to 180 degrees.

So we can setup the equation x + 72 = 180.

Subtracting 72 from both sides gives us x = 108.

So the value of x that would make line m ll n is 108.

In March, Your Co. will collect 20% of January's sales, 30% of February's sales, and 50% of March's sales:

  .20×50 +.30×40 +.50×60 = 10 +12 +30 = 52

Similarly, in April, collections will be ...

  .20×40 + .30×60 + .50×30 = 8 +18 +15 = 41
