the next number is 17 thank you
(-7x + 2)^1/3 = (4 + 3x)^1/3
take the cube of both side to eliminate the 1/3 power
so you get
-7x+2=4+3x
combine like terms
-10x=2
solve for x
x=-1/5
Answer:
Option b.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
is right angled triangle . An altitude is drawn from point R to point T on side S Q to form a right angle. The length of S T is 9 and the length of T Q is 16. The length of S R is x.
In the figure,
and RT is perpendicular to SQ.
We know that in a right angled triangle if a perpendicular is drawn from the vertex of the right angle to the hypotenuse then triangles on both sides of the perpendicular are similar to each other and to the whole triangle .
Therefore , 
Also, we know that if two triangles are similar then their sides are proportional .

So, option b. is correct
Convert the 5 6/8 into a fraction
46/8
3/8+46/8=49/8
or
6 1/8
