Answer:
4.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the termites: 5 pounds
After the termites: 1/4 of a pound
Amount that the termites took: x
5 - x = 1/4
Add x to both sides of the equation
5 = 1/4 + x
Subtract 1/4 from both sides of the equation
4 3/4 = x
4 3/4 = 4.75
The termites took 4.75 pounds from the log
Hope this helps :)
I think that It will be symmetric about x axis
Answer: BC = 54 <kjm=44
Step-by-step explanation:
1st 0ne-
if you look at it as 2 triangles with D being the shared side- I can determine that the angles are congruent (by SSA theorem)
so
6x=9x-27 (by corresponding parts of congruent Theorem)
-3x=-27
x=9
BC- 9(9)-27= 81-27=54
2nd one-
J bisects KJM
4x+6=3x+10
x=4
3(4)+10= 22
4(4)+6= 22
KJM= 22+22= 44
I believe the answer is 5
