Answer: NP= 16 cm

Explanation:

As we shown in the figure below :

Since P is the midpoint of MN and  NQ

So, We consider ΔMNP and ΔPQR,

∠MPN=∠QPR  (∵ Vertically opposite angles are equal)

MP=PR  (∵ P is the mid point of MR)

NP=PQ  (∵P is the midpoint of NQ)

So, ΔMNQ ≅ ΔPQR  (∵By SAS congruence )

∴ 26=6x+2 \text{(By CPCT )}\\26-2=6x\\24=6x\\\frac{24}{6}=x\\4=x

So, NP=3x+4=3\times 4+4=12+4=16 cm

Solve 6y2-5y-6 = 0 using the quadratic formula.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Ay=3 over 2 or y=-2 over 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the quadratic formula: y={-b±√(b²-4ac)}/2a

In the equation 6y²-5y-6= 0, a=6, b=-5, c= -6

Substituting for the values in the formula we get:

{-(-5)±√[(-5²)-4(6)(-6)}/2(6)

{5±√169}12

={5±13}/12

(5+13)/12=3/2 or (5-13)/12= -2/3

Hey!

----------------------------------------------

Solution:

Remember to follow PEMDAS!

= 3 + 2 ⋅ [(2 + 1) ⋅ 5 + 8]

= 3 + 2 ⋅ [(3) ⋅ 5 + 8]

= 3 + 2 ⋅ [(15) + 8]

= 3 + 2 ⋅ [23]

= 3 + 46

= 49

----------------------------------------------

Answer:

49
