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

what are the two major advantages of experimental research over correlational studies? multiple select question. experiments are
Aloiza [94]

The experimental research has two key advantages over correlational studies.

1. The possibility of random assignment

2. Causal connections can be assumed.

<h3>What benefit does experimental research have over correlational research?</h3>

Correlational studies merely examine the data that already exists, whereas experimental studies give the researcher the opportunity to influence the study's factors. Researchers can make inferences about how changes in one variable affect changes in another through the use of experimental investigations.

The factors in a correlation study are out of the control of the researcher or research team. The researcher merely measures the information she discovers in the outside world. She can then determine whether changes in one are related to changes in the other, or if the two variables are correlated. In such a study, experimenters gather existing data and use statistical methods to examine it, such as economic statistics from governments. The findings of correlation studies can lead to hypotheses that can be verified through a more focused experimental one.

The graph of a line goes up and to the right when:
Afina-wow [57]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Option: C is the correct answer.

c) the coefficient of x is positive

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

We know that graph of a line goes up and to the right when the coefficient of x is positive.

Since we know that when a line goes up and to the right this means that the line is increasing and hence we will get a positive slope of the line and we know that the slope intercept of a line is given as:

y=mx+c

as m is positive this means that:

the coefficient of x is positive.

Hence, the correct answer is:

c) the coefficient of x is positive
