If RS is congruent to MN then the value of x in all the parts are 6,4, and 10.

Given RS is congruent to MN.

We are required to find the value of x if RS is congruent to MN.

Congruent lines are those lines whose lengths are equal to each other.

1) RS=x+10, MN=2x+4.

Because the congruent lines have equal lengths so , RS=MN.

x+10=2x+4

x-2x=4-10

-x=-6

x=6

2) RS=3x-2, MN=x+6

Because the length of lines are equal,so RS=MN.

3x-2=x+6

3x-x=6+2

2x=8

x=4

3) RS=5x-10, MN=2x+20

The lengths are equal so RS=MN.

5x-10=2x+20

5x-2x=20+10

3x=30

x=10

Hence if RS is congruent to MN then the value of x in all the parts are 6,4, and 10.

Complete the steps to solve the polynomial equation x3 – 21x = –20. According to the rational root theorem, which number is a po

Answer:

Zeroes : 1, 4 and -5.

Potential roots: $\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$x^3-21x=-20$

It can be written as

$x^3+0x^2-21x+20=0$

Splitting the middle terms, we get

$x^3-x^2+x^2-x-20x+20=0$

$x^2(x-1)+x(x-1)-20(x-1)=0$

$(x-1)(x^2+x-20)=0$

Splitting the middle terms, we get

$(x-1)(x^2+5x-4x-20)=0$

$(x-1)(x(x+5)-4(x+5))=0$

$(x-1)(x+5)(x-4)=0$

Using zero product property, we get

$x-1=0\Rightarrow x=1$

$x-4=0\Rightarrow x=4$

$x+5=0\Rightarrow x=-5$

Therefore, the zeroes of the equation are 1, 4 and -5.

According to rational root theorem, the potential root of the polynomial are

$x=\dfrac{\text{Factor of constant}}{\text{Factor of leading coefficient}}$

Constant = 20

Factors of constant ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20.

Leading coefficient= 1

Factors of leading coefficient ±1.

Therefore, the potential root of the polynomial are $\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20$ .

There is a walking trail at the park. Four laps around the trail is a distance of 1 mile. How many laps does it take to walk 3/4

ira [324]

Pretty Sure it is 3 laps. because if it is 4 laps = 1 mile. then 1/4 = 1 lap 2/4= 2 laps 3/4 = 3 laps and then 4/4 = 4 laps = 1 mile.

Hope this helps :)
