Answer:

B. PQ = 23, QR = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In segment PR,

Q is the point between points P and R,

That is, PR = PQ + QR,

We have, PR = 40 unit, PQ = 5x - 2 and QR = x + 12,

By substituting the values,

40 = 5x - 2 + x + 12

40 = 6x + 10

30 = 6x

⇒ x = 5

Hence, PQ = 5(5) - 2 = 25 - 2 = 23 unit,

And, QR = 5 + 12 = 17 unit

OPTION B is correct

6/7 of 1 3/4......turn the mixed number to an improper fraction...and " of " means multiply
6/7 * 7/4 = 42/28 = 1 1/2...so a compact car weighs 1 1/2 tons or 1.5 tons

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow. (7x - 3) (12x -7) Solve for x.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x-3)(12x-7)

we are solving for x and we are multiplying.

we start with the x's 7x*12x=  84x

-3*-7=21

so now we have

84x+21=0

the 0 is a placer for answering the question

we minus 21 to both sides

84x=-21

now we divide

84/-21= -4

x=-4

The length of a rectangle is 3 inches more than its width. If the perimeter is 42 inches, find the dimensions of the rectangle.​
aalyn [17]

P = 2w + 2l where w is the width, and l is the length. We know the length (l) is 3 inches longer than it's width (or l = w+3). Substitute w +3 into Perimeter equation. P = 2w + 2(w+3).

(3.8 x 10 ^ -6) x (2.37 x 10 ^ -3)<br><br> Enter the answer in science notification
Black_prince [1.1K]

Multiply the coefficients and the powers of 10 with each other:

(3.8 \times 10^{-6}) \times (2.37 \times 10^{-3}) = (3.8\times2.37) \times (10^{-6} \times10^{-3})

The numeric part simply yields

3.8\times2.37 = 9.006

As for the powers of 10, you have to add the exponents, using the rule

a^b \times a^c = a^{b+c}

So, we have

10^{-6} \times10^{-3} = 10^{-6-3} = 10^{-9}

So, the final answer is

9.006\times 10^{-9}
