Given that PS is a median of triangle PQR, find RQ
A.6
B.12
C.19
D.38
1 answer:
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)

(x-2) + (x-1) + x + (x+1) + (x-2) + (x+3) = 447
6x + 3 = 447
6x = 447 - 3
6x = 444
x = 444/6
x = 74
16 - 7 is 9
9 x 2 is 18
His weekly allowance is 18
Answer:
all real numbers less than or equal to –3
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the y-values that the graph shows. There are none greater than -3. Any value of -3 or less is possible.
Answer: -18
<u>Explanation:</u>
Average rate of change is slope:
. Need to find the y-coordinates:
g(x) = -x² - 4x
g(6) = -(6)² - 4(6)
= -36 - 24
= -60
⇒ (6, -60)
g(8) = -(8)² - 4(8)
= -64 - 32
= -96
⇒ (8, -96)
m = 
= 
= -18
