The length of the line segment SR is 15 units.

<h3>How to find the length of a line segment?</h3>

In Δ SRQ as seen in the attached image, we see that;

∠SRQ is a right angle

SQ is the hypotenuse

RT ⊥ SQ

Thus, by triangular rules, we know that;

(RQ)² = TQ × SQ

RQ = 20 units and TQ = 16 units

Thus;

(20)² = 16 × SQ

400 = 16 × SQ

SQ = 400/16

SQ = 25 units

By using Pythagoras theorem in Δ SRQ, we have;

(SR)² + (RQ)² = (SQ)²

RQ = 20 units and SQ = 25 units

Thus;

(SR)² + (20)² = (25)²

(SR)² + 400 = 625

(SR)² = 225

SR = √225

SR = 15 units

The length of the line segment SR is 15 units.

First figure out of it is a arithmetic or geometric sequence, in this case it is a geometric sequence because you have to multiply, not add to find the next number.

Divide one number, I'll pick 324 by the number before it, 108, you get three.

Now divide 36 by 3, you get 12.

To check, multiply 12 by 3, you get 36, multiply that by 3, you get 108, and so on and so forth.

Explain how to use a horizontal number line<br> to order four fractions from least to greatest.
horsena [70]

Answer:

To order fractions from least to greatest, start by finding the lowest common denominator for all of the fractions. Next, convert each of the fractions by dividing the lowest common denominator by the denominator and then multiplying the top and bottom of the fraction by your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for the above problem: We first find the least common denominator by finding the least common multiple for 4, 3, 2, 6, and 8. We find the LCM by the prime factorization method. Next, place the fractions in order from least to greatest.
