5 0

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>
  • RS = 2x - 1
  • ST = 4x + 7
  • RT = 60
  • x= ?
<h3>Solution</h3>

Since S is the point on the line segment RT,

RT = RS + ST, and

  • 60 = 2x - 1 + 4x + 7
  • 60 = 6x + 6
  • 10 = x + 1
  • x = 10 - 1
  • x = 9

<h3>What is a linear equation in two variables ?</h3>

An equation is linear if has highest degree of 1 and it has two variables.Generally they are in x and y.

For example -: 2x + 3y = 10

According to the given question a farmer has some hens and goats. He counts a total of 60 eyes and 86 feet between them.

Let us denote Hens by H and Goats by G.

We know both of them has 2 eyes each and we also know that a Hen has 2 legs and a Goat has 4 legs.

There fore the given data we can form two equations.

2H + 2G = 60 and 2H + 4G = 86.

Solving these two equations we have G = 13 and H = 17.

A general formula for a parabola is y2 = 4px. What is the value of p in the equation y2 = –4x?
oee [108]
Easy

compare
y²=4px vs
y²=-4x

y²=y²
4px=-4x
divide both sides by x
4p=-4
divide both sides by 4
p=-1




p=-1
