Answer:  PR = 38

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since Q is the midpoint of PR, then PQ = QR

6x + 25 = 16 - 3x

9x + 25 = 16             added 3x to both sides

9x         = -9             subtracted 25 from both sides

 x         = -1              divided both sides by -1

PQ = 6x + 25               QR = 16 - 3x

     = 6(-1) + 25                   = 16 - 3(-1)

     = -6 + 25                      = 16 + 3

     = 19                               = 19

Use the Segment Addition Postulate to find PR:

PR = PQ + QR

     = 19  +  19

     = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

If Q is the midpoint of PR

Then PQ + QR = PR

(6x + 25) + (16 - 3x)

group the same terms and add them

(6x - 3x) + (25 + 16)

Hence PR = (3x + 41)

But to find the value of PR....If Q is the midpoint....then PQ = QR...since they are both half lengths of PR;

; 6x + 25 = 16 - 3x

; 6x + 3x = 16 - 25...;9x = -9

Hence the value of...x = -1

Then substitute the value of x into the equation of PR....3x + 41

;3(-1) + 41

;-3 + 41

Hence PR = 38

Complete the sentence.<br><br><br> 7 is 35% of _________.
Sonbull [250]
<span>Okay, pretend the number equals X,
so x is 35%, and that would equal 7, so then 
x is still 35/100 = 7 
x = 7 which is 100/35 
x = 700/35 
x = 20 
then you get the number = 20 
I hope this was helpful, and good luck! :P</span>

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

1. a

2. f^{-1} (x)=\frac{x}{2} +2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since there is one value of y for every value of x in (−1,0),(−4,5),(3,2),(−3,5), this relation is a function.

2. To find the inverse, interchange the variables and solve for y.

f^{-1} (x)=\frac{x}{2} +2

What is the range of possible sizes for side x?
faust18 [17]
0.5 < x < 16.5 given: Two sides of triangle: 8.0 units and 8.5 units
Measure of third side = x
According to the triangle's inequality,
Sum of any two sides > third side. (i)
Difference between the sides < third side. (ii)
If x is the third side, then
x < 8+8.5 [Using (i)]
i.e. x< 16.5
Also, x > 8.5-8 [Using (ii)]
i.e. x> 0.5
Hence, Range of possible sizes for side x would be 0.5 < x < 16.5.
