If PR=40, what are PQ and RQ

Mathematics
2 answers:
AleksAgata [21]4 years ago

PR = PQ + QR = 40

Substitute PR and QR into the equation above

40 = 5x - 2 + x + 12

Combine like terms

40 = 6x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides

30 = 6x

Divide both sides by 6

5 = x

PQ = 5x - 2= 5(5) - 2 = 23

Remember, PR = PQ + QR

40 = 23 + QR

Subtract 23 from both sides.

17 = QR

PQ = 23

A recipe for sparkling water juice calls for 1 1/2 quarts of sparkling water and 3/4 quart of grape juice
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

You would need 18 quarts of sparkling water to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/2 ---------> 3/4

x --------------> 9

We clear the value of x:

x = ((9) / (3/4)) * (1 1/2)

Rewriting we have:

x = ((9) * (4/3)) * (1 1/2)

x = (36/3) * (1 1/2)

x = (12) * (1 1/2)

x = (12) * (3/2)

x = 18

Find volume of sphere in cubic yards whose radius is 5 yard<br><br> Use pi = 3.14​
enyata [817]

Answer:

523.333 cubic yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is  \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3} where r is the radius.

The radius of the given sphere is r=5 yards and \pi =3.14.

Therefore, we can substitute in the radius and solve:

V_{sphere}= \frac{4}{3}\*\times3.14\times  5^{3} =523.333 cubic yards
