Answer:

RS = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Points R, S, and T are collinear, and S is between R and T, in addition, RS = 2x-4, ST = 3x+2, and RT = 13. Find the value of RS

Hence:

RS + ST = RT

2x - 4 + 3x + 2 = 13

2x + 3x - 4 + 2 = 13

5x - 2 = 13

5x = 13 + 2

5x = 15

x = 15/5

x = 3

To find the value of RS

RS = 2x-4

RS = 2 × 3 - 4

RS = 6 - 4

RS = 2

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

option A)  y > 5/4x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Take any point in the shaded region

( -12 , 1)

y > 5/4 x + 10

1 > 5/4 * (-12) + 10

1 > 5*(-3) +10

1 > -15 + 10

1 > -5

(-12 , 5) satisfies the equation.
