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

F(x) = x 2+ 6 and g(x) = 2x - 1<br><br> g[f(x)] =
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Given,

f(x)=x^2+6

g(x)=2x-1

Now,

g[f(x)]=g(x^2+6) since f(x)=x^2+6

=2(x^2+6)-1 since x > x^2+6

=2x^2+12-1

=2x^2+11

What are the eight-digit grid coordinates for benchmark 86 (circled in red)?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

An eight-digit grid coordinate gives a precision to the nearest 10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Grid coordinates are meant to accurately direct to  a specific location, using a map that comes with vertical and horizontal lines of equal spacing and numbers attached to each line to map out a location. The crossing vertical  and horizontal lines have unique numbers and form small squares known as grid squares.

The more digits in the coordinate of a point the increase in precision an eight- digit gives a precision to the nearest 10 meters
