Mathematics

Monica [59]3 years ago

Answer:

PQ = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

PT = 3x + 3

TQ = 5x - 9

Midpoint, T

Required

Determine PT

First, the value of x has to be calculated;

Since T is the midpoint, then:

PT = TQ

This implies

3x + 3 = 5x - 9

Solve for x

3x - 5x = -3 - 9

-2x = -12

x = -12/-2

x = 6

Length PQ can then be calculated using:

PQ = PT + TQ

PQ = 3x +3 + 5x -9

Collect Like Terms

PQ = 3x+ 5x +3  -9

PQ = 8x -6

Substitute 6 for x

PQ = 8 * 6 - 6

PQ = 48 - 6

PQ = 42

Assuming you are given a picture of intersecting lines. 

Switch the reasons for b) and c) 
b) the angles form a linear pair , from the picture, so this is linear pair postulate
C) Then the measures add to 180, because they are supplementary. Defn of supplementary. 
E) you have divided both sides of the equation by 2; or multiplied by 1/2; multiplication property of equality 
F) definition of right angle

The drawing is a scale drawing of a house.
Alborosie

Answer: 20.25ft

1. Find what 8 inches in scale equal for the height of the house.

we will do this step by multiplying.

2in=4.5

8=?

to find...

2x4=8

so

4.5x4=18

2. Find what 1 inch on the scale is equal to for the height of the house.

we will do this by dividing 4.5 by 2

4.5/2=2.25

3. Add both the values for step 1 and 2.

we will do this by just adding them both

18+2.25=20.25

<h2>Why is this our answer?</h2>

This is our answer, because first we found the value of 8 inches on the scale, which means that we are finding almost the full value of the 9 inches of the height of the house, then, we found 1 inch because 9-8=1, so if we already found 8, which is a number in the table of 2, we found out 1 so that we can add it with 8 to find the value of 9in on the scale. In this way, after adding, that gives us the value of 9in on the scale!

My gratitude attitude - THANKS!
