Answer:

ST = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Line segment RS and segment ST must add up to line segment RT

Step 1: Define

RS = 17

ST = x + 6

RT = 3x - 5

Step 2: Set up equation

mRS + mST = mRT

17 + x + 6 = 3x - 5

Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>

x + 23 = 3x - 5

23 = 2x - 5

28 = 2x

x = 14

Step 3: Find mST

ST = x + 6

ST = 14 + 6

ST = 20

Whats the solution of x^2+4x-4=8
denpristay [2]

Answer:

x = 2, x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+4x-4=8

Subtract 8 from both sides.

x^2+4x-4-8=8-8

Simplify.

x^2+4x-12=0

Solve with quadratic formula.

a = 1

b = 4

c = -12

I do not have time to show work for quadratic formula parts.

I am so sorry for this inconvenience.

No, because you can simplify it even more if you divide by 2.
2/2=1
and 6/2=3

2/6 in simplest form is 1/3.

Express .32 as a fraction
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 8/25

Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.32 is thirty-two hundredths so we can write 0.32 as 32/100.

Since 32/100 is not in lowest terms, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4 and we get the equivalent fraction 8/25.

This means that 0.32 can be written as the fraction 8/25 which is in lowest terms.
