The temperature of a hot steak starts
at 140° F and decreases at 5° F per minute.
What will the temperature be of this
steak after a certain number of minutes?

answer: we have from thales theorem that because the 2 triangles are similar, jm/jk=jn/jl. we have that jn=x, jl=x+24 and that jm=7 and jk=28. substituting, we get:

x/(x+24)=7/28.

hence, x/(x+24)=1/4. this leads to 4x=x+24, 3x=24, x=8. we have solved for x=jn and this is equal to 8.

step-by-step explanation:

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units

step-by-step explanation:

correct answer is option b.

step-by-step explanation:

the true statement about geometric figure is option b that is one line can be drawn through all three points.

if three points are on the same plane, they can be connected by a line.

47 - 90 = 43

43 - 180 = x

x = 137
