The median triangle is a line segment that connects the vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. Therefore, in the given, we can say that RS = QS

Equating RS and QS, we will find the value of X

RS = QS 
5x-11 = 2x+7
5x-2x = 7+11    ⇒ combine like terms
3x = 18             ⇒ divide both sides by 3 to get the x value 
x = 6

Find the value of RS and QS, in this, we will show that two are equal

5(6)-11 = 2(6)+7
19 = 19  ⇒ correct

Therefore RQ is the sum of RS and QS or simply twice the length of either segment

RQ = 19 x 2 = 19 + 19 = 38 (D)

Is |4x+2|+6=0 no solution, all real numbers, 0, and 2
algol [13]

                                        <u>|4x + 2| + 6 = 0</u>

Subtract  6  from each side:  |4x + 2| = -6

But the absolute value of a number is always positive.
No value of 'x' can ever make  |4x + 2|  negative.

So the equation has <em>no solution</em>.

Paraphin [41]
"Understand the problem" might rightly consist of
• Perform this step first
• Identify what you are being asked to solve or find.
• Identify the important words or numbers in the problem
• Identify any instructions that you are supposed to follow

_____
One of my professors always insisted we start the solution of any problem by writing down what was Given, and what we had to Find, using those headers for the sections of the paper we turned in. Only after those were listed were we allowed to write the Solution. Solution papers that didn't have that format were tossed in the trash, and no credit was given. Harsh, but effective.
