2x+1=5x-44 that would be your equation

next start to simplify 

subtract 1 from both sides so you are left with 2x=5x-45

then subtract 5x from both sides and you have -3x=-45

then finally divide -3 from -45 to get x=15

Answer:

PQ=31\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem Q is the midpoint of PR

so

PQ=QR

we have

PQ=2x+1 -----> equation A

QR=5x-44 -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

2x+1=5x-44

solve for x

5x-2x=1+44

3x=45

x=15

Find the value of PQ

PQ=2x+1 ------> PQ=2(15)+1=31\ units

Drupady [299]
Each kid ticket will cost 12.25 dollars because 18.50 times 12 equals 222 dollars. You subtract 222 from 344.50 to get the total amount for 10 kids which is 122.50 dollars. 122.50 divides by 10 is 12.50.

Write a simplified expression using exponents that represents the area of the square.
olganol [36]

Answer:

The area of the square is 25d^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given square, the length of the side = 5d.

Area of a square = side × side

Given: Side = 5d

Now plug in side 5d in the above area formula, we get

Area of the square = 5d × 5d

= 25d^{2}

Therefore, the answer is 25d^{2}.
