QP=24 cm

RS=11.25 cm

QS=18.75 cm

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that TQ bisects <RTP

therefore(1)

consider ΔRQS and ΔRPT

QS||PT,RP and RT are transversals

(alternate angles)(2)

comparing (1) and (2)

and triangle SQT is isocelus

Therefore SQ=ST(sides opposite to equal angles in an isocelus triangle)

Therefore <RQS=<RPT(corresponding angles)

<RSQ=<RTP(corresponding angles)

therefore by AA criterion for similarity

ΔRQS~ΔRPT

According to the property of similar triangles

RQ/RP=RS/RT=QS/PT9/RP=X/30=QS/50\\9/RP=X/30=(30-X)/50\\X/30=(30-X)/50\\50X=30(30-X)\\50X=900-30X\\50X+30X=900\\80X=900\\X=900/80=11.25\\RS=11.25 cm\\QS=30-X=30-11.25\\QS=18.75 cm\\9/RP=X/30\\9/RP=11.25/30\\9*30/11.25=RP\\RP=24 cm

Consider the equation y = -2x + 5. Create a table of five ordered pairs that satisfy the equation. What is the y-intercept of th
Tatiana [17]

Answer: option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a table of five ordered pairs that satisfy the equation, you need to give values to the variable "x" and substitute these into the function to find the corresponding value of "y":

For x=-2

y = -2(-2) + 5=9

For x=-1

y = -2(-1) + 5=7

For x=0

y = -2(0) + 5=5

For x=1

y = -2(1) + 5=3

For x=2

y = -2(2) + 5=1

Then, you can make the table:

<em><u>x</u></em><u>   </u><u>-2  -1  0  1  2</u>

<em><u>y   </u></em><u> </u><u>9  7  5  3  1</u>

To find the  x-intercept, substitute y=0 into the function and solve for "x". Then:

0 = -2x + 5\\\\x=\frac{-5}{-2}\\\\x=\frac{5}2}

This is: (\frac{5}{2}, 0)

To find the  y-intercept, substitute x=0 into the function and solve for "y". Then:

y= -2(0) + 5\\\\y=5

This is: (0,5)
