Answer:

x = -8

QR = 6

PR = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Alrighty, this one has a lot of steps. We have to think about this logically.

The length of PR is x + 17, and the length of PQ is 3, and the length of QR is 2x + 22.

The length of PR could also be written as the length of PQ + QR, which gives us the formula PR = PQ + QR. This allows us to put all our information into one formula to solve for x.

PR = PQ + QR

x + 17 = 3 + 2x + 22

17 - 3 - 22 = 2x - x

-8 = x

so x = -8

Now we can use that x and plug it into the other two formulas:

QR = 2x + 22

QR = 2(-8) + 22

QR = -16 + 22

QR = 6

And now we plug x into PR:

PR = x + 17

PR = -8 + 17

PR = 9

Alternatively, we can use our other formula, PR = 3 + QR, which gets us the same answer:

PR = 3 + QR

PR = 3 + 6

PR = 9

Select the 2 pairs of points so that the line between those points has slope 3/4. There are
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

D.

(0,5) and (-4,2)

E.

(-4,4) and (-1,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we apply the slope formula and compare with the known slope to see if the answer tallies;

 Slope  = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}  }{x_{2} - x_{1} }  

A.

(0,5) and (-4,8)

     x₁ = 0       y₁ = 5

     x₂ = -4     y₂  = 8

   Slope  = \frac{8-5}{-4-0}   = -\frac{3}{4}

B.

(6,-1) and (10,2)

     x₁ = 6       y₁ = -1

     x₂ = 10     y₂  = 2

   Slope  = \frac{10-6}{ 2-(-1)}   = \frac{4}{3}

C.

(1,5) and (4,7)

      x₁ = 1       y₁ = 5

     x₂ = 4     y₂  = 7

   Slope  = \frac{7-5}{4-1}   = \frac{2}{3}

D.

(0,5) and (-4,2)

     x₁ = 0       y₁ = 5

     x₂ = -4     y₂  = 2

   Slope  =  (2-5) / (-4-0)  = 3/4

E.

(-4,4) and (-1,7)

      x₁ = -4       y₁ = 4

     x₂ = -1        y₂  = 7

   Slope  = \frac{7-4}{-1-(-4)}   = \frac{3}{4}

KoKo Chocolatiers sells their truffes in rectangular boxes. They are going to start ordering circular boxes, too. The rectangula
lidiya [134]

Answer:

r = 9.61 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a rectangular box = length × width × height

= 21.5 cm × 13.5 cm × 6 cm

= 1,741.5 cm³

Volume of a rectangular box = 1,741.5 cm³

Since,

Volume of a rectangular box = Volume of a circular box

Then,

1,741.5 cm³ = Volume of a circular box

Volume of a circular box = πr²h

1,741.5 cm³ = 3.14 * r² * 6 cm

1,741.5 = 18.84r²

r² = 1,741.5/18.84

r² = 92.436305732484

r = √92.436305732484

r = 9.6143801533163

Approximately,

r = 9.61 cm
