Question not well presented

Point S is on line segment RT . Given RS = 4x − 10, ST=2x−10, and RT=4x−4, determine the numerical length of RS

Answer:

The numerical length of RS is 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

RS = 4x − 10

ST=2x−10

RT=4x−4

From the question above:

Point S lies on |RT|

So, RT = RS + ST

Substitute values for each in the above equation to solve for x

4x - 4 = 4x - 10 + 2x - 10 --- collect like terms

4x - 4 = 4x + 2x - 10 - 10

4x - 4 = 6x - 20--- collect like terms

6x - 4x = 20 - 4

2x = 16 --- divide through by 2

2x/2 = 16/2

x = 8

Since, RS = 4x − 10

RS = 4*8 - 10

RS = 32 - 10

RS = 22

Hence, the numerical length of RS is calculated as 22

Simplify the expression. (8 + 7a) + 4 7a
agasfer [191]
For this one I'm going to assume that 4 7a means 4 * 7a...

(8 + 7a) + 4 * 7a =
8 + 7a + 28a =
8 + 35a

If I read it wrong and 4 7a is actually 47a then...

(8 + 7a) + 47a =
8 + 54a =
2(4 + 27a)
