Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If point T is on the line segment SU, then ST + TU = SU.

Given

TU = 4x + 1

SU = 8

ST = 3x

To get TU, we need to get the value of x first. To get x, we will substitute the given parameters into the formula;

3x+4x+1 = 8

7x+1 = 8

subtract 1 from both sides

7x+1-1 = 8-1

7x = 7

divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 7/7

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into the length TU

Since TU = 4x+1

TU = 4(1)+1

TU = 5

Hence the numerical length of TU is 5 units

How do you factor 6x2 + 11x + 3

REY [17]

Answer:

(3x + 1) (2x + 3)

These are the factors of 6x2 + 11x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Math Term Definition. Factor. To factor a number means to break it up into numbers that can be multiplied together to get the original number. EXAMPLES: 6 = 3 x 2 so, factors of 6 are 3 and 2 9 = 3 x 3 so, factors of 9 are 3 and 3 Sometimes, numbers can be factored into different combinations.

Solve the system of linear equations by elimination. 4x - 3y = 8 5x - 2y = -11

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: Solution:

7x=-49

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-3y=8→(1)

5x-2y=-11→(2)

equation(1)×2⇒8x-6y=16

equation(2)×3⇒15x-6y=-33

Substracting ⇒-7x=49

dan is building a circular swimming pool and wants the circumference to be no more than 95 feet what is the largest radius possi

sleet_krkn [62]

The largest radius for the swimming pool is 15.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Circumference of the circular swimming pool built by Dan = 95 feet

We need to determine the largest radius for the pool.

Step 2 :

Circle's circumference is given by 2πr

Where r represents the radius

This shows that the radius is in direct proportion to the circumference. Hence the radius corresponding to the maximum circumference will be the largest possible radius

So we have 2πr = 95

=> r = $\frac{95}{2\pi }$
