Using the proportionality theorem, the length of the missing segment is 25 units.

<h3>What is the Proportionality Theorem?</h3>

According to the proportionality theorem, the middle segment in the diagram given divides the two sides it intersects proportionally.

Therefore, we would have:

x = missing segment

36/21 = (35 + x)/35

Cross multiply

35(36) = 21(35 + x)

1,260 = 735 + 21x

1,260 - 735 = 21x

525 = 21x

525/21 = x

x = 25

The missing segment is: 25 units.

If 3t - 7 = 5t, then 6t = A. 21 B. -7 C. -21 D. -42

podryga [215]

Answer:

C. -21 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for t. Isolate the variable t in the first equation, then use the number gotten to solve the second equation.

3t - 7 = 5t

First, subtract 3t from both sides

3t (-3t) - 7 = 5t (-3t)

-7 = 5t - 3t

-7 = 2t

Isolate the variable (t). Divide 2 from both sides

(-7)/2 = (2t)/2

t = -7/2

t = -3.5

Plug in -3.5 for t in the second equation

6(t) =

6(-3.5) =

6(-3.5) = -21

C. -21 is your answer

Solve for h h - 3h - 8 = 14 H=?

sweet [91]

The initial step that must be taken before solving almost any problem is to understand what the problem is asking for us to do and what is provided to us to complete that goal. Looking at the problem statement, we can see that we are being requested to solve for h and we are provided an expression to do so. Let's begin solving the expression by combining like terms.

Combine like terms

$h - 3h - 8 = 14$

$(h - 3h) - 8 = 14$

$(- 2h) - 8 = 14$

Just a quick explanation on what combine like terms means, it basically just means to combine the coefficients of the numbers associated with the same variables. Like in this example we can combine h and -3h because they have have the variable h associated with them.

Add 8 to both sides
