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

Solve 2x + 4y = -8 and 4x + 8y = 5 by elimination. Please show work on how to get the answer.
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two equations are 2x+4y= -8 and 4x+8y= 5

These two lines are parallel They don't have a solution because they do not meet .

Multiply the first equation by 2 we get 4x+8y = -16

the other equation is 4x+8y= 5 clearly these two are parallel .

To prove by elimination method we have subtract those two equations we get 21≠0 which is not possible.

Therefore there is no solution to the given set of equation.

Find how many quarts of 6% butterfat milk and 1% butterfat milk should be mixed to yield 75 quarts of 3% butterfat milk.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

30 gallons of 6% milk, and 45 gallons of 1% milk.

x=quarts of 6% butterfat

First, write an equation.

0.06x+0.01(75-x)=0.03*75

Multiply both sides by 100.

0.06x*100+0.01*100(75-x)=100*0.03*75

Simplify

6x+75-x=3*75

6x+75-x=225

Solve

5x=225-75=150

5x=150

x=30

75-30=45

So, we need 30 gallons of 6% milk, and 45 gallons of 1% milk.
