Answer:

JL = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question that K is the midpoint of JL.

So, JK = KL ......... (1)

Now, given that, JK =3x - 1 and KL = 2x + 8

Therefore, from equation (1), we can write

3x - 1 = 2x + 8

⇒ x = 9

So, JK = 3x - 1 = 3(9) -1 = 26 and KL = 2x + 8 = 2(9) + 8 = 26

Hence, JL = JK + KL = 26 + 26 = 52. (Answer)

Find the angle between 0° and 360° that is coterminal with a 443° angle.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

If you rotate an angle 360 degrees around, your final angle will be facing the same direction

Thus, the coterminal angle is $443^\circ-360^\circ=83^\circ$

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 25x +100

y- is the total money spent on the phone

x-is the number of months you had service

the relationship between x and y is proportional ( if x grows, y grows)

For example: after 2 months you would had payed $100 for the phone + the $25 each of the 2 months. y= 25*2 +100 = $150

The school that Lisa goes to is selling tickets to the annual talent show. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 4 se

kakasveta [241]

Let:
x = cost of senior citizen ticket
y = cost of student ticket

4x + 5y = 102
7x + 5y = 126

4x + 5y = 102
4x = 102 - 5y
x = (102 - 5y)/4
x = 102/4 - 5y/4

7x + 5y = 126
7(102/4 - 5y/4) + 5y = 126
(714/4 - 35y/4) + 5y = 126
-35y/4 + 5y = 126 - 714/4

note:
-35y/4 = -8.75y
714/4 = 178.5

-8.75y + 5y = 126 - 178.5
-3.75y = -52.5
y = -52.5/-3.75
y = 14

x = 102/4 - 5y/4
x = 102/4 - 5(14)/4
x = 8

x = cost of senior citizen ticket = $8/ea
y = cost of student ticket = $14/ea

A plan that costs $29.99 another company $19.99 and $0.35 during nights and weekends for what numbers of night and weekend does

Masja [62]

Answer:

29 minutes more

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent minutes

changing the statement to algebra, since the second company charges a different rate at night and weekend we have the equation below;

$19.99 + $0.35m > $29.99

Subtract 19.99 from both sides to isolate m and we have;

$19.99 -$19.99 + $0.35 > $29.99 - $19.99

= $0,35m > $10.00

Divide both side by 0.35 to obtain the value of m;

$\frac{0.35m}{0.35}$ > $\frac{10}{0.35}$

= m > 28.57

m ⩾ 29 minutes

The second company's will be twenty nine minutes or more costlier than the first company
