Answer:

438 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :R is the midpoint of QS , QR = 8x - 51 and RS = 3x-6

To Find : What is QS?

Solution:

Since R is the Mid Point of QAS

So, QR = RS

8x - 51=3x-6

8x - 3x=51-6

5x=45

x=9

QS = QR+RS

QS= 8x-51+3x-6

QS= 11x-57

x = 45

QS= 11(45)-57

QS= 438

Hence the length of QS is 438 units .

If R is the midpoint, then R splits QS into 2 equal sections. Therefore, QR = RS.

8x - 51 = 3x - 6
8x - 3x = -6 + 51
5x = 45
x = 45/5
x = 9

so QR = 8(9) - 51 : 72 - 51 = 21 and RS = 3(9) - 6 = 27 - 6 = 21
so QS = 21 + 21 = 42 <==

Answer:

<em>a:b:c=8:12:15</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Combined Ratio</u>

We are given the ratios:

a:b=2:3

b:c=4:5

The combined ratio a:b:c will include all three variables in one single expression.

Before finding it, we must have a common number for the common variable (b). Since b is 3 in the first ratio and 4 in the second ratio, we must equate both by finding the LCM of 3 and 4=12, thus both ratios will be amplified as follows:

a:b=2:3=(2*4):(3*4)=8:12

b:c=4:5=(4*3):(5*3)=12:15

Now there is a common factor in both ratios, we can combine them removing the common factor:

a:b:c=8:12:15
