The answer is x=6, y=9.

EXPLANATION

Segments QT and ST are congruent to each other because the diagonals meet at point T, which bisects them. Segments RT and PT are also congruent.

Deriving from this, we say

QT = ST
PT = RT

Choose one of these diagonals, so we can simply find one value of x we can substitute for another diagonal.

So, in this case, we use first PT = RT

PT = RT
2x = y+3
x=(y+3)/2

Now, we will plug in the value of x to the equation showing the congruence of segments QT = ST.

QT = ST
3x = 2y
3(y+3)/2 = 2y
3y+9/2 = 2y
(3y+9/2 = 2y)2
3y+9 = 4y
y = 9

Now, we have the value of y, substitute it to any of the two equations we had for the two diagonals.

2x = y+3
2x = 9+3
2x = 12
x = 6

 An athlete runs an equal distance 2 days a week. The other 5 days of the​ week, he runs a total of 11 miles. Write an equation
katovenus [111]
Ok since the athlete an equal distance of 2 days a week and he runs a total of 11 miles in 5 days you will need to think back so before he had 11 miles done next weak he had a total of 19 miles so you will start at 11 then count up to 19.

Use a number line to show how many days it took for the athlete to get 19 miles.

Then once you do the number line count the lumps and that’s how many days it took for the athlete to get 19 miles.

Hope this helped.

I FOUND YOUR COMPLETE QUESTION IN OTHER SOURCES.

 PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.

 For this case the area is given by:

 A = (22 + x) * (28 + x) = 722

 Rewriting we have:

 616 + 22x + 28x + x ^ 2 = 722

 x ^ 2 + 50x + 616 - 722 = 0

 x ^ 2 + 50x - 106 = 0

 Solving the polynomial we have:

 x1 = 2.04

 x2 = -52.04

 We take the positive root:

 x = 2.04 inches:

 Answer:

 The width of the border to the nearest inch is:

 x = 2inches
