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)

Answer: 120 seconds

Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the maximum value of a function, you can take the derivative of the function and equalize the result to 0.

f'(x)=(-3x^2 + 12x)'=-6x+12=0

x=2

When x is 2, the function will reach its maximum value.

f(2)=-3(2)^2 + 12.2 = -12 + 24 = 12

The maximum value (f(x)) is equal to 12 and the time passed is 2 minutes which is equal to 120 seconds.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

A) -2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that for a slope, the slope of the line is found by using the equation:

slope = (rise/run).

In this case, find two points. For example, i will use:

(0, 2) & (5, 0). (x = 0, y = 2) ; (x = 5, y = 0)

Note that "rise" = y, and "run" = x. Plug in the corresponding numbers for the corresponding points.

(2 - 0)/(0 - 5) = slope

Simplify

(2)/(-5) = slope

-(2/5) is your answer.

Note that it does not matter where the negative sign is placed.
