The measure of the side SQ from the given diagram is 19/6

<h3>Similar shapes</h3>

Similar shapes are shapes that has equal length and equal side measures and angles.

From the given diagram, the measure of the sides TSis congruent to SP and the measure of MS is congruent to SQ.

Using the expression below to determine the value of x

MS/ST = SQ/SP

Given the following parameters

MS =30

ST = 10

SQ = 6x-1

SP =  3 - 2x

Substitute the given parameters into the formula to have:

30/10 = 6x-1/3-2x

Cross multiply

10(6x-1) = 30(3-2x)

Expand

60x - 10 = 90 - 60x

60x + 60x = 90 + 10

120x = 100

x = 10/12

x = 5/6

Determine the measure of SQ

SQ = 6x - 1

SQ = 5(5/6) - 1

SQ = 25/6  - 1

SQ = 19/6

Hence the measure of the side SQ from the given diagram is 19/6

Meredith has 8 pages of homework to do. If she can finish of a page in one hour, how
Damm [24]

Answer: 8 Hours to finish her homework.

Step-by-step explanation: We know each page, or 1 page takes 1 hour to finish. We want to know how many hours it would take to take finish 8 pages of homework. To find this, simply multiply 1 by 8. (1 hour per page, or 1 hour for each of the 8 pages.)

1 x 8 = 8.

So it will take Meredith 8 hours to finish her homework.

Someone please Solve 3 (x - 1) = 6. Thank you
kramer
We have an equation with parentheses. To make our lives easier, first get rid of the parentheses. We do this by using the distributive property.

It is used like this: a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Use the distributive property on the left-hand side.

3(x - 1) = 6
3x - 3 = 6

Now we have an equation that is easier.

The x variable is being multiplied by 3 and added to -3.
Reverse all of these operations with their inverse operation.

3x - 3 = 6
3x = 9 <--- I got rid of the -3 term by using the inverse of subtraction. Addition.
                  And I did the same for both sides to keep the equation true.
x = 3 <--- The inverse of multiplication is division.
                So, I divided both sides by 3.

So, x is equal to 3.
