<h3>Answer:  14</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

\frac{\text{KM}}{\text{NM}} = \frac{\text{KL}}{\text{NO}}\\\\\frac{\text{KN}+\text{NM}}{\text{NM}} = \frac{\text{KL}}{\text{NO}}\\\\\frac{7+x}{x} = \frac{15}{10}\\\\10(7+x) = 15x\\\\

70+10x = 15x\\\\70 = 15x-10x\\\\5x = 70\\\\x = \frac{70}{5}\\\\x = 14\\\\\text{NM} = 14

Side note: The triangles are similar, which allows us to set up the proportion in step 1.

4^2-6(2^x)-16=0<br><br><br>solve for x
ahrayia [7]
Assuming that   <span>4^2-6(2^x)-16=0   is correct, we can rearrange it as:

</span><span>-6(2^x) + 4^2 - 16=0

Are you sure it's not   </span>6(2^x) + 4^2 - 16=0  ?

If   6(2^x) + 4^2 - 16=0    is correct, then

6(2^x) + 4^2 - 16=16 - 16 = 0, that is,   6(2^x) = 0.  Then x = 0 (answer)

marissa [1.9K]
Let  AM be the distance between point A and the right wall and AN be the distance between A and the left wall.
Δ AMB is an isosceles right triangle and  Δ ANC is half of an equilateral triangle.
Length of AM = 30 m. Length of AN = 1/2 · 80 = 40 m.
The distance between the walls is:
30 m + 40 m = 70 m.
