You can do this by drawing one line through parallel to PQS to meet RQ at T

Now calculate length of RT:-

cos 70 = RT / 70 giving RT = 23.94m

sin 70 = ST/70 giving ST = 65.78 m

draw a line from S perpendicular to PQ to meet PQ at U.

PU = 110 - 65.78 = 44.22 m

tan 50 = SU / 44.22 giving SU = 52.70 m

TQ = SU = 52.70 m

So x = TQ + RT = 52.70 + 23.94 = 76.6 m to 1 dec place.

Points A,M and P are collinear with M in between A and P. If AP=29, AM =5x-3 and MP=8x+6, what does MP=?
charle [14.2K]

The length of MP is 22 units.

<h3>What is a Line Segment?</h3>

A line segment is defined as a measured path between two places. Line segments can make up any polygon's sides because they have a set length.

The figure is given below shows a line segment AP, where the length of line segment AP refers to the distance between its endpoints, A and P.

Given that Points A, M and P are collinear with M in between A and P.

AP=29, AM =5x-3 and MP=8x+6,

A______________M______________P

⇒ AP = AM + MP

Substitute the values of AP = 29, AM =5x-3 and MP=8x+6,

⇒ 29 = 5x - 3 + 8x+6,

Rearranging the terms in the above equation,

⇒ 5x + 8x = 29 + 3 - 6

⇒ 13x = 26,

⇒ x = 26/13,

⇒ x = 2

So MP = 8x+6

Substitute the value of x = 2 in the above equation,

⇒ MP = 8(2) + 6

⇒ MP = 22

Hence, the length of MP is 22 units.

You have a poster that is 5 feet by 3 feet. You want to put a frame, with a uniform width, around the picture. The poster and th
Semenov [28]

Please don't give me credit, but I want to say that;

1. You need a picture attached to this

2. Make sure you add if 5 feet is the length or width, in addition to the 3 feet

3. The width can't be a negative value, so eliminate the negative answers

4. For the second answer, why is there a coma preceding another value? The width can can only be one value

You can add all these elements

A credit card states that your payment will be a minimum of $15 plus 1% of your unpaid balance. Your unpaid balance is $2,365.Wh
Pachacha [2.7K]
Alright, to get 1% of his unpaid balance, we can make 1% = 0.01 by moving the decimal place 2 places over. Multiplying 0.01 by 2365 gets 1% of your unpaid balance=23.65. Since we have to add 15 as a base value, we have
