Mathematics

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, the correct question is:

If B is between A and C, and AB=3x+1, BC=2x-7, and AC=24, then find the value of x and the value of AB

Answer: The line segment addition postulate states that if a point B is placed between a line segment with end points A and C, then the distance between the points can be expressed by the equation:

AB + BC = AC

But AB=3x+1, BC=2x-7, and AC=24, Hence:

3x + 1 + 2x - 7 = 24

3x + 2x + 1 - 7 = 24

5x - 6 = 24

5x = 24 + 6

5x = 30

x = 6

AB = 3x + 1 = 3(6) + 1 = 18 + 1 = 19

BC = 2x - 7 = 2(6) - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5

If mRS=x then write an equation that could be used to solve for x and find the value of x
Fed [463]

Answer:

a) x = 30°

b) mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

Question:

The complete question as found on Chegg website:

In the diagram below, secants PT and PU have been drawn from exterior point P such that the four arcs

intercepted have the following ratio of measurements:

mRS : mST :MTU : mUR=1:4:4:3

(a) If mRS = x, then write an equation that could be used to solve for x

and find the value of x.

(b) State the measure of each of the four arcs.

mRS =

mST =

MTU

MUR =

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the diagram related to the question

mRS : mST : mTU : mUR = 1:4:4:3

Since mRS = x

Writing the ratios of the measure of angle in terms of mRS:

mST = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mTU = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mUR= 3× mRS = 3×x = 3x

The sum of measure the 4 measures of arc = 360° (sum of angle in a circle)

mRS + mST + mTU + mUR = 360°

x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360

12x = 360

x = 360/12

x = 30°

b) The measure of angle

mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°
