Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that T is the midpoint of line PQ, segments PT = 5x + 2, and TQ = 7x - 6 that are formed would be equidistant or congruent. PT = TQ.

Therefore:

5x + 2 = 7x - 6

Let's find the value of x

Rearrange the equation, so that the terms having x would be on your left, while those without x would be on your right.

5x - 7x = - 2 - 6

-2x = -8

Divide both sides by -2

x = 4

Plug in the value of x into the expression, 5x + 2, to find PT.

PT = 5(4) + 2 = 22.

Elena-2011 [213]
The graph is misleading because it appears to be showing a huge increase, however, it is showing this increase over a huge time span of 13 years, which is actually quite a small amount for only a few hundred customer increase.

Alice earned $622.50 in interest on her savings in the bank before interest the account had $12,450 what is the approximate perc
In-s [12.5K]
If we take 12450 to be the 100%, what is 622.50 off of it in percentage then?  let's check.

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
12450&100\\
622.50&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{12450}{622.50}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{622.50\cdot 100}{12450}

Find the total surface area of the square pyramid in the figure.
Scilla [17]

The total surface area of the square pyramid (SA) = 144 yd².

<h3>What is a Square Pyramid?</h3>

A square pyramid is a solid shape that has a square base and four rectangular lateral faces.

<h3>How to Find the Total Surface Area of a Square Pyramid?</h3>

The total surface area of a square pyramid is the sum of the area of its square base and four rectangular lateral faces. To find the total surface area, the following formula is used:

Total surface area of a square pyramid (SA) = A + 1/2(Pl), where:

  • Area of base = A
  • Perimeter of base = P
  • Slant height of pyramid = l

Given the following:

Area of base (A) = 8² = 64 yd²

Perimeter of base (P) = 4(8) = 32 yds

Slant height of pyramid (l) = 5 yds

Plug in the values

Total surface area of a square pyramid (SA) = 64 + 1/2(32)(5)

Total surface area of a square pyramid (SA) = 64 + 80

Total surface area of a square pyramid (SA) = 144 yd².
