Answer:

  PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution

Step-by-step explanation:

The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...

  LP + PR = LR

This corresponds to the last choice.

_____

<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>

On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...

  PL + LR = PR

The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...

  LP + LR = PR

and by the commutative property, ...

  LR + LP = PR.

Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.

Indicate which sets are disjoint to the given set
marysya [2.9K]

If the intersection of two sets is a null set or an empty set, then two sets A and B are disjoint sets. The intersection of a set is therefore empty.

<h3>Explain about the disjoined set?</h3>

Disjoint sets are a pair of sets that do not share any elements. For instance, the sets A=2,3 and B=4,5 are not connected sets. However, set C=3,4,5 and set C=3,6,7 are not disjoint since 3 is a common element in both sets C and D.

Now that we are clear on the disjoint set's definition, let's go on to talking about some more important topics, such the notation and Venn diagram related to it. A B = is the notation used for this particular set. As an illustration, suppose A = 1, 2, 3, and B = 4, 5, 6, 7. A + B = then.

6x - 2y = 26<br><br> 2x + 3y = 5<br><br> Solve for X and Y
Softa [21]

Answer:

y is equal to -1

x is equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you would do is multiply the bottom equation by a negative 3. You will get - 6x - 9y = -15. Keep the top equation the same. Both of the 6x's cancel. You then get -11y = 11 so y is equal to negative 1.

Since you have Y, you can now plug that in to any equation to find the value of x. -6x - 2(-1) = 26. You're left with 4. Plug both of the values into each equation to double check.

Whats the answer to 3,000(6-2) + 3,000
yuradex [85]
The answer is 15000

3000 \times ( 6 - 2) = 12000  + 3000 = 15000
3000*6=1800
3000*-2=-6000
18000-6000=12000
12000+3000=15000
