Answer:
XQ = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question it asks for XQ instead of x, but you need to find x first.
1. Find x.
XQ is half of MQ so this statement is true: 3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)
Solve for x.
3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)
Distribute 2.
3x - 3 = 4x - 12
Isolate x.
3x = 4x - 9
-x = -9
Divide -1 out.
x = 9
Now solve for XQ, which the equation is given.
XQ = 2(9) - 6
XQ = 18 - 6
XQ = 12
The answer would be X =90
9x-3x-5-3=2x-12
12x -8 =2x-12
-2x. -2x
10x. -8. =-12
+8. +8
10x. = -4
X = -0.4
It is not a function and that is becuase a vertical line would pass through it twice
The slope of the green line if the lines are perpendicular is -1/4
<h3>Perpendicular lines</h3>
For two lines two be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1. Let the slope of the red and green line be m1 and m2.
Given the following
Slope of red line = 4
According the definition
4m2 = -1
m2 = -1/4
Hence the slope of the green line if the lines are perpendicular is -1/4
