<span>Since RT bisects QS, we have QT congruent to ST. Bisect means it cuts QS in half. The we have RT congruent to RT since it is the same. By SSS, we have triangle QRT congruent to triangle SRT since QT is congruent to ST, RT is congruent to RT, and QR is congruent to SR. Each side is congruent to its respective side in the other triangle and that is SSS (side, side, side).</span>
Let x=the amount of roses that Brad buys. (x+3)=the number of daisies that Brad buys.
x+(x+3)=33
Simplify this problem to find the amount of roses:
2x+3=33
2x=30
x=15
So, Brad buys 15 roses and 18 daisies.
Since roses cost $3, 15*3=45.
The roses cost $45.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x = -1 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Get everything to one side of the equation so it's set equal to zero..
-x² + 4x = x - 4 becomes...
-x² + 3x + 4 = 0 (subtract x and add 4 to both sides)
x² - 3x - 4 = 0 (divide both sides by -1, we want the x² term to be positive)
(x - 4)(x + 1) = 0 (factor)
so
x - 4 = 0, then x = 4
and
x + 1 = 0, then x = -1
(3,3.87),(6,7.74)
slope = (7.74 - 3.87) / (6 - 3) = 3.87 / 3 = 1.29
