Based on the angle bisector QS, the value of x is 4

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The given parameters are:

QS bisects <PQT
QP and QR are opposite rays.
m<PQT = 60
<PQS = 4x + 14,

Because QS bisects <PQT, then

PQT = 2 * <PQS

This gives

4x + 14) * 2 = 60

Divide by 4

2x + 7 = 15

Subtract 7 from both sides

2x = 8

Divide by 2

x = 4

Hence, the value of x is 4

Tom rode his horse for 4/6 mile. Liz rode her horse for and equal distance. what is an equivalent fraction that describes how fa

Tpy6a [65]

I saw the images that accompanied this problem.

2 circles: circle 1 has 6 slices ; circle 2 has 3 slices

Circle 1 is for Tom: you can shade 4 slices out of the 6 slices.
Circle 2 is for Liz: you can shade 2 slices out of the 3 slices.

4/6 is equal to 2/3 because when 4 and 6 are both divided by 2, they give quotient of 2 and 3, respectively.

4 ÷ 2 = 2
6 ÷ 2 = 3

Which number line represents the solution set for the inequality 2x- 6>6 (x-2)+8

kirill [66]

Answer:

The inequality is

2 x - 6 > 6(x -2) +8

To solve the inequality we will first use distributive property with respect to multiplication over subtraction

And then bring constant on one side and variable on another side keeping the inequality maintained

2 x -6 > 6 x -12 + 8

2 x -6 > 6 x - 4

6 x - 2 x< -6+4

4 x < -2

Dividing both sides by 2

x < $\frac{-1}{2}$

Now i will draw the graph of above function.

How do I graph the inequality of this equation.<br><br> y > x + 2

ZanzabumX [31]

-- For just a minute, make it an Equality . . . y = x + 2 .

-- Graph the Equality. That graph is a straight line.

-- The INequality says that 'y' is LESS than x+2,
and THAT's everything UNDER the line.
(But not the points on the line itself.)
