Question not well presented
Point S is on line segment RT . Given RS = 4x − 10, ST=2x−10, and RT=4x−4, determine the numerical length of RS
Answer:
The numerical length of RS is 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
RS = 4x − 10
ST=2x−10
RT=4x−4
From the question above:
Point S lies on |RT|
So, RT = RS + ST
Substitute values for each in the above equation to solve for x
4x - 4 = 4x - 10 + 2x - 10 --- collect like terms
4x - 4 = 4x + 2x - 10 - 10
4x - 4 = 6x - 20--- collect like terms
6x - 4x = 20 - 4
2x = 16 --- divide through by 2
2x/2 = 16/2
x = 8
Since, RS = 4x − 10
RS = 4*8 - 10
RS = 32 - 10
RS = 22
Hence, the numerical length of RS is calculated as 22
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Time taken by Sam = 3 hours
Sam's rate = 1/3
Time taken : Sam + Laura = 2 hours
Sam's rate + Laura's rate = 1/2
Let time taken by Laura = x
1/3 + 1/x = 1/2
1/x = 1/2 - 1/3
1/x = (3 - 2) / 6
1/x = 1 /6
x = 6
Hencw, it will take 6 hours for Laura alone to rake leaves
The base is 315. Perimeter of base is 72.
Answer:
D)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to subtract 5 from both sides
Now, square both sides
x - 6 = 49
Now, add 6 to both sides
x - 6 +6 = 49 + 6
x = 55
