Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since T is mid point of PQ

PT=TQ

$4x + 5 = 8x - 7 \\ 5 + 7 = 8x - 4x \\ 12 = 4x \\ x = 12 \div 4 \\ x = 3 \\$

$pt = 4x + 5 \\ = 4(3) + 5 \\ = 12 + 5 \\ pt = 17$

Answer:

PT = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since T is the midpoint of PQ, then

PT = TQ , substitute values

4x + 5 = 8x - 7 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5 = 4x - 7 ( add 7 to both sides )

12 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )

3 = x

Thus

PT = 4x + 5 = 4(3) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17

A number is decreased by 40% to 525. what is the original amount?

zhenek [66]

Answer:

875

Step-by-step explanation:

lets assume the original amount X

the new amount = X - ( X × 40% )

525 = (60 × X) ÷ 100

X = ( 525 × 100 ) ÷ 60

0.2 repeating is 0.2222222222...
so you have to put the repeating digit(s) divided by 9's
Then it will be 2/9 which yields 0.222222222.....
