Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the midsegment theorem we can conclude that

QR = \frac{1}{2} NP

Using QR = 3x + 2 and NP = 2x + 16, then

3x + 2 = \frac{1}{2}(2x + 16) = x + 8 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x + 2 = 8  ( subtract 2 from both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

As a check

QR = 3x + 2 = 3(3) + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11

NP = 2x + 16 = 2(3) + 16 = 6 + 16 = 22

Thus QR is one half NP is confirmed

Answer:

<h2>C.  QR=1/2NP  ;  x=3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

QR=1/2NP ⇔ NP=2QR ⇔ 2x+16=2(3x+2) ⇔ 2x+16=6x+4 ⇔ 12=4x ⇔ x=3

Verdich [7]

Answer:

b = $4000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the bonus amount.

Then the bonus, b, less the three deductions, is represented by

b - 0.30b - 0.30b - 025b, and this comes to $600.  Find the value of b.

b - 0.85b = $600, or

0.15b = $600

Then b = $4000
