Answer:

x=-0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

ok you have to visualize this line

P                         Q                           R

O---------------------O-----------------------O

        3x+14                    7x-10

so to make the equation of PR you would add PQ and QR together.

3x+14+7x-10

add your like terms

10x+4

solve for x

10x+4=0

subtract 4 from each side

10x=-4

divide both sides by 10

x=-2/5       fraction

x=-0.4       decimal

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

A midpoint is the middle point of a line segment, therefore it is equal distances from both ends of the segment.

This means that PQ and QR have the same length. So all we have to do is set each value equal to each other, and then solve for X.

3x+14=7x-10\\3x+24=7x\\24-4x\\x=6

Answer:

The answer is C. 6.4 X 8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale factor from the original to the trimmed photo is 5:4

The statement above just means the scale of the old dimension is 5 while the scale of the new dimension is 4.

To get the new dimensions, multiply each of the old dimensions by 4/5

4/5 X 10 = 8

4/5 X 8 = 6.4

Therefore the new dimension is 6.4 X 8 in

The depth of a local river averages 20 ft, which is represented as |−20|. In January, it measured 6 ft deep, or |−6|, and in Jul
mr_godi [17]

The computation shows that the difference in depth is 16 feet

<h3>How to calculate the value?</h3>

From the information, in January, it measured 6 ft deep, or |−6|, and in July, it was -22.

Therefore the difference between the depth will be:

= -6 - (-22)

= -6 + 22

= 16

Therefore, the difference in depth is 16 feet
