The centroid of a triangle divides the median of the triangle into 1 : 2
The measure of FQ is 18, while the measure of TQ is 6
Because point T is the centroid, then we have the following ratio
![\mathbf{TQ : FT =1 : 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BTQ%20%3A%20FT%20%3D1%20%3A%202%7D)
Where FT = 12.
Substitute 12 for FT in the above ratio
![\mathbf{TQ : 12 =1 : 2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BTQ%20%3A%2012%20%3D1%20%3A%202%7D)
Express as fraction
![\mathbf{\frac{TQ }{ 12} =\frac{1 }{ 2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7B%5Cfrac%7BTQ%20%7D%7B%2012%7D%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%20%7D%7B%202%7D%7D)
Multiply both sides by 12
![\mathbf{TQ =\frac{1 }{ 2} \times 12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BTQ%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%20%7D%7B%202%7D%20%5Ctimes%2012%7D)
This gives
![\mathbf{TQ =\frac{1 2}{ 2}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BTQ%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%202%7D%7B%202%7D%7D)
Divide 12 by 2
![\mathbf{TQ =6}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BTQ%20%3D6%7D)
The measure of FQ is calculated using:
![\mathbf{FQ = FT + TQ}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BFQ%20%3D%20FT%20%2B%20TQ%7D)
Substitute 12 for FT, and 6 for TQ
![\mathbf{FQ = 12 + 6}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BFQ%20%3D%2012%20%2B%206%7D)
Add 12 and 6
![\mathbf{FQ = 18}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathbf%7BFQ%20%3D%2018%7D)
Hence, the measure of FQ is 18, while the measure of TQ is 6

4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope formula and slope-intercept form y
=
m
x
+
b to find the equation.
I think it is 350(1.2)^t because you take the starting amount (350) and then multiple it by the growth rate (which is 20%, but when added to 100 and the put into a decimal is 1.2) raised by the number of hours (t).
I hope this helps.
The value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D
<h3>How to determine the value</h3>
The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as;
Perimeter = 2 ( length + width)
It is important to note that parallel sides of a rectangle are congruent, that is, they are equal.
Given the sides as;
5y + 6 = 8y -3
collect like terms
5y - 8y = -3 - 6
-3y = -9
Make 'y' the subject
y = 3
Thus, the value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D
