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

See image, finding the height of a triangle with law of sines
djyliett [7]

Answer:

height of the Eiffel tower ≈ 300.0 m(nearest tenth of a meter)

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle TDE is not a right angle triangle. Angle TDE can be gotten by subtracting 63° from 180°. Angle on a straight line is 180°. Therefore, 180° - 63° = 117

°.

angle TDE = 117°

angle DTE = 180° - 117° - 31° = 32°

DE = 346.4 m

Side TD can be find using sine law

346.4/sin 32° = TD/sin 31°

cross multiply

346.4 × 0.51503807491  = 0.52991926423TD

178.409189149  = 0.52991926423TD

divide both sides by 0.52991926423

TD = 178.409189149/0.52991926423

TD  =  336.672397461

TD ≈ 336.67 m

The side TD becomes the hypotenuse of the new right angle triangle formed with the height of the Eiffel tower.

Using sin ratio

sin 63° = opposite/hypotenuse

sin 63° = h/336.67

cross multiply

h = 336.67 × 0.89100652418

h = 299.975166498

height of the Eiffel tower  ≈ 300.0 m(nearest tenth of a meter)

The amount​ (in megawatts) of energy generated in a country from wind power can be modeled by the function ​W(t)equalsw0​(1.90​)
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

W(t)=W_0(1.90)^t

Where t corresponds to the year 2000=0

a.W(0)=2540MW

Substitute the values

2540\times 10^6=W_0(1.90)^0=W_0

W_0=2540MW

b.In  2004

t=4

W(4)=2540(1.90)^4

W(4)=33101.534 MW

c.In 2013

t=13

W(13)=2540(1.9)^{13}=10.68\times 10^6MW

What is the difference between the number of solutions for a two-step equation and for a two-step inequality
Sophie [7]

Answer:

A two-step equation is something like:

A*X + B = C

In this case, like in a linear equation, we have only one solution that can be found as:

A*X = C - B

X = (C - B)/A

In the case of a two-step inequality, we have something like:

A*X + B > C

Solving this we get;

A*X >  C - B

X > (C - B)/A

In this case, any value of X that is larger than  (C - B)/A is a solution, so in this case, we have infinite solutions.

That is the difference between the number of solutions for each case, in a two-step equation we have only one, while in the case of the inequality we have infinite.
