How to find rapidly the coordinates of Q:
since Q is the center of gravity of the triangle ABC, so we have the following vector relationship
vecQA +vecQB +vecQC =<span>vec0
</span><span>vecQA=(x-3, y+2)
</span><span>vecQB=(x-1, y+5)
</span><span>vecQC=(x-7, y+5)
</span><span>vec0=(0, 0)
</span>
so, vecQA +vecQB +vecQC =<span>vec0 is equivalent to 

</span>x-3 +x-1+x-7 =0, and y+2+y+5+<span>y+5=0 so 3x-11=0 implies x=11/3
</span><span>and 3y+12=0 implies y=-12/3

finally the </span><span>the coordinates of point Q is (11/3, -4)</span><span>

Answer:

x = 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar means that the figures are proportional to each other. Because of this, we can form a problem. \frac{9}{5} (the short side lengths) = \frac{x}{8} (the long side lengths). Now we can solve this by cross-multiplying. If we multiply 9 · 8 we get 72, and 5 · x is 5x. 72 = 5x. Now divide both sides by 5. 72 ÷ 5 = 14.4. Therefore, x should be equal to 14.4. Does this make sense?

Shelly is trying to improve her running time for a track race she ran the first race in 43.13 seconds her time was 43.1 seconds
lesantik [10]
I we consider her running times as an arithmetic series with common difference:
43.13 - 43.1 = -.03/2 = -.015, Shelly's time in the fourth race will be 43.1 - .015 = 43.085.
