Given that Z is the centroid of a triangle RST. This means that Z is the point of intersection of the three medians of the triangle.

So,W is the midpoint of RSV is the midpoint of RTWe are given that:RV = 4x + 3 and VT = 2x + 9

Since V is the midpoint, then:RV = VT4x + 3 = 2x + 94x - 2x = 9 - 32x = 6x = 3

Now put the value of x in WS = 5x-1WS = 5x-1WS = 5(3) - 1 WS = 15 - 1 = 14WS = 14

Since W is the midpoint of RS, therefore RW = WSand WS = 14Therefore:
RW = 14

On which number line do the points represent negative seven and one over two and +1?
MaRussiya [10]
A number line is used in the mathematical positioning of real numbers that include the numbers from positive infinity to negative infinity. This includes rational, irrational, fractions, and whole numbers. In this case, we are given with an expression that we have to reduce to lowest terms: negative seven and one over two and +1. The first one is equal to -7.5 while the other one is equal to +1. Positive numbers lie on the right side of zero (center of the line) while negative numbers lie on the left on the other hand. -7.5 lies between -8 and -7 while +1 lies exactly between 0 and 2. Both of which are positive numbers.
