The diagram is showing the length of each line segment.

• NM has length 110 + 4x

• ML has length x + 103 (this is the one you have to find)

• LK has length 70

• NK has length x + 243

The segment NK has length equal to the sum of the lengths of NM, ML, and LK. So we have

x + 243 = (110 + 4x) + (x + 103) + 70

Solve this equation for x :

x + 243 = (110 + 103 + 70) + (4x + x)

x + 243 = 283 + 5x

x - 5x = 283 - 243

-4x = 40

x = 40/(-4)

x = -10

Now solve for x + 103 by adding 103 to this result:

x + 103 = -10 + 103 = 93

So ML has length 93.

X+56=88 what would x be???

Vanyuwa [196]

Subtract $56$ from both sides to get

$x+56-56=88-56$

$x=88-56$

$x=32$

8) through: (-3, -2), perp. to y = x – 1 A) y=-5x – 1 B) y=-4x – 5 C) y=-x – 5 D) y=-5x – 4

Answer:

The equation through (-3, -2) and perpendicular to y = x – 1 is y = -x -5 and option c is correct.

Solution:

Given, line equation is y = x – 1 ⇒ x – y – 1 = 0. And a point is (-3, -2)

We have to find the line equation which is perpendicular to above given line and passing through the given point.

Now, let us find the slope of the given line equation.

$\text { Slope }=\frac{-x \text { coefficient }}{y \text { coefficient }}=\frac{-1}{-1}=1$

We know that, product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.

So, 1 $\times$ slope of perpendicular line = -1

slope of perpendicular line = -1

Now let us write point slope form for our required line.

$\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{y}_{1}=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}_{1}\right)$

y – (-2) = -1(x – (-3))

y + 2 = -1(x + 3)

y + 2 = -x – 3

x + y + 2 + 3 = 0

x + y + 5 = 0

y = -x -5

Hence the equation through (-3, -2) and perpendicular to y = x – 1 is y = -x -5 and option c is correct.
