Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-(x+1)=5-2x

distribute

5x-x-1 = 5-2x

4x-1 = 5-2x

add 2x on each side

4x-1+2x = 5-2x+2x

6x -1 = 5

add 1 on each side

6x-1+2 = 5+1

6x = 6

divide by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1

QS¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ bisects ∠PQR . If m∠PQS = 5x and m∠RQS = 2x + 6, then what is m∠PQR ? m∠PQR is

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

$PQR = 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bisector: QS

$PQS = 5x$

$RQS = 2x + 6$

Required

Determine PQR

Since PQR is bisected to PQS and RQS, we have that

$PQS = RQS$

Substitute expressions for PQS and RQS

$5x = 2x + 6$

Collect Like Terms

$5x - 2x = 6$

$3x = 6$

Divide both sides by 3

$x = 2$

Solving for PQR;

$PQR = PQS + RQS$

$PQR = 5x + 2x + 6$

$PQR = 7x + 6$

Substitute 2 for x

$PQR = 7 * 2 + 6$

$PQR = 14 + 6$

$PQR = 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each triangle is an equilateral triangle all side are the same length. Thus, one side is 15/3=5 inches. The perimeter of the entire figure would then be 3x6=18 since there are 6 sides.
