Answer:

QR=RS=QS=29    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given QRS is an equilateral triangle, thus all the three sides of the given triangle will be equal.

Also, from the given statement, we have

QR=2x-7, RS=5x-61 and QS=11+X

Now, As all the sides of the triangle are equal, therefore

QR=RS=QS

⇒QR=RS

⇒2x-7=5x-61

⇒-7+61=5x-2x

⇒54=3x

⇒x=18

Thus, the measure of QR=2(18)-7=29,RS=5(18)-61=29 and QS=11+18=29.

Answer: The answer is 29 units.


Step-by-step explanation:  As given in the question and shown in the attached figure, ΔQRS is an equilateral triangle, where the measure of the sides are given in the form of an unknown variable 'x' as follows.

\textup{QR}=2x-7,~~\textup{RS}=5x-61,~~\textup{QS}=x+11.

Since the triangle is an equilateral one, so all the sides must be equal to one another. So, we have

\textup{QR}=\textup{RS}\\\\\Rightarrow 2x-7=5x-61\\\\\Rightarrow 5x-2x=61-7\\\\\Rightarrow 3x=54\\\\\Rightarrow x=18.

Therefore,

\textup{QR}=2x-7=2\times 18-7=36-7=29.

Since, QR = RS = QS, so measure of each side is 29 units.

Thus, the answer is 29 units.

Are the graphs of the lines in the pair parallel? Explain.<br><br> y = 5x + 6<br> –18x + 3y = –54
raketka [301]
I hope this helps you



y=5x+6 this lines slope= -5


-3 (6x-y)= -54


6x-y= 18

y= 6x-18 this lines slope= -6


parallel lines slopes equal

-5 is not equal -6 not parallel

Graph the linear equation and answer each of the following questions. y=-2x-3
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Part 1) The y-intercept is the point (0,-3)

Part 2) The slope in fraction form is m=-\frac{2}{1}

Part 3) The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=-2x-3

Part 1) What is the y-intercept?

Remember that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

so

For x=0

substitute in the linear equation and solve for y

y=-2(0)-3\\y=-3

The y-intercept is the point (0,-3)

Part 2) What is the slope (in fraction form)?

we have

y=-2x-3

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept

so

m=-2

In fraction form is

m=-\frac{2}{1}

The slope is negative, that means, is a decreasing function (as the x-values increases the y-values decreases)

Part 3) Graph the line

To graph the line we need two points

From the y-intercept (0,-3) use the slope to find your next point

The slope is -2, so you will rise -2 (2 units down) and run 1 (1 unit to the right).

The next point is (0+1,-3-2) -----> (1,-5)

so

Plot the points (0,-3) and (1,-5), connect them and graph the line
