<h3>Answer: QS is 37 units long</h3>
=========================================
Explanation:
PN = 24 and NR = 14 are pieces of the chord PR. The two pieces multiply to some value. At the same time, the other two pieces QN = 21 and NS = 2x-4 also multiply to that same value. In short, the chord pieces multiply to the same number. This is known as the intersecting chord theorem.
PN*NR = QN*NS
24*14 = 21*(2x-4)
336 = 42x-84
336+84 = 42x-84+84 .... add 84 to both sides
420 = 42x
42x = 420
42x/42 = 420/42 ...... divide both sides by 42
x = 10
We know that x = 10 so we can use it to find the length of NS
NS = 2x-4
NS = 2*10-4
NS = 20-4
NS = 16
Therefore,
QS = QN + NS
QS = 21 + 16
QS = 37
--------
note: as a check,
PN*NR = QN*NS
24*14 = 21*16
336 = 336
we get a true equation, so we have the proper values
Answer:
Shirt: $7.5
Sweater: $17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
25/2=12.5
Shirt is 5 less than Sweater
12.5-5=7.5
Add 5 to sweater cost
12.5+5=17.5
Shirt=7.5 Sweater=17.5
17.5+7.5=25
Answer:
a. Current: 5 units/hour. Previous: 4.4 units/hour
b. Increase
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Current period productivity is 200 / 40 = 5 units/hour
Previous period productivity is 132 / 30 = 4.4 units/hour
b. As this week's productivity = 5 units/hours which is larger than last week's productivity = 4.4 units/hour. The worker's productivity for this week has increased.

Answer:
12 and 7 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is 84 square meters and the width is 5 meters less than the length. 12 is the length and 7 is the width. 7 is 5 less than 12, and 12*7=84.
The length is 12 and the width is 7
