Line YZ is the midsegment of triangle QRS because it connects the midpoints of lines QR and RS. We would solve for x by appying the midsegment theorem which states that the midsegment is half the length of the third side or base. This means that

YZ = 1/2(QS)

x + 2 = 1/2 * (3x - 8)

2(x + 2) = 3x - 8

By opening the parenthesis, we have

2x + 4 = 3x - 8

Collecting like terms, we have

3x - 2x = 4 + 8

x = 12

Option C is correct

The displacement (in meters) of a particle moving in a straight line is given by the equation of motion
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

  • -2/a³ m/s
  • -2 m/s
  • -1/4 m/s
  • -2/27 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity is the derivative of position:

  v = ds/dt = (d/dt)(t^-2) = -2t^-3

For t=a, the velocity is

  -2a^-3 = -2/a³ . . . . meters per second

For t=1, the velocity is ...

  -2·1³ = -2 . . . . meters per second

For t=2, the velocity is ...

  -2·2^-3 = -2/8 = -1/4 . . . . meters per second

For t=3, the velocity is ...

  -2·3^-3 = -2/27 . . . . meters per second
