Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that SV is the angle bisector of ∠RST, then

∠RSV = ∠TSV, thus

∠RSV + ∠TSV = ∠RST ← substitute values

2x + 8 + 2x + 8 = 6x - 26, that is

4x + 16 = 6x - 26 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- 2x + 16 = - 26 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

- 2x = - 42 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = 21

A line with a slope of 2 passes through the points (0,4) and (-6,v). What is the value of v?
krok68 [10]

To solve this problem, we should create an equation using the given information.  To do this, we should calculate the slope between the two points as if they were regular points, giving us:

change in y/change in x = (v-4)/(-6-0) = (v-4)/(-6)

Since we know that the slope is 2, we can set our calculated value for the slope of the line for the equation (v-4)/(-6) equal to 2, as shown below:

(v-4)/(-6) = 2

To solve this equation, we should multiply both sides of the equation by -6 to get rid of the denominator on the left side of the equation.

v-4 = -12

Next, we should add 4 to both sides of the equation to get the variable v alone on the left side of the equation, as shown below:

v = -8

Therefore, v =-8 is your answer.

Hope this helps!

There are 45 children in a class. If
Dovator [93]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total = 45

Absentees = 9

Percentage  = (No. of absentees / total) × 100

                    = 9 / 45 × 100

                    = 0.2 × 100

                    = <u>20%</u>
