Answer:

x = 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

QM = angle bisector of angle PQR

Angle PQN = 7x + 15

Angle NQM = 4x

x =?

Since QM is the angular bisector, it means that it bisect PQR into two equal angle i.e 45° each.

See attachment for diagram.

Thus, we can obtain the value of x as follow:

7x + 15 + 4x + 45= 90° (angle in a right angle triangle)

7x + 4x + 15 + 45= 90

11x + 60 = 90

Collect like terms

11x = 90 – 60

11x = 30

Divide both side by 11

x = 30/11

x = 2.7

Therefore, the value of x is 2.7

<h2>Greetings!</h2><h3>When multiplying two roots together, you can rearrange the equation so that the roots are next to each other and so are the whole numbers:</h3>

2 x 3 x \sqrt{3} x \sqrt{12}

<h3>This means that 2 x 3 is simple, = 6,</h3><h3>But when multiplying \sqrt{3} x \sqrt{12} you simply multply the two numbers and put them in a square root:</h3>

\sqrt{3} x \sqrt{12} = \sqrt{36}

<h3>But this can be square rooted to 6, which then means that the equation is now:</h3>

2 x 3 x 6 = 36

<h3>So the simplified form is 36.</h3>

Total socks = 4 + 7+ 11 = 22
Red = 4
White = 7

P(red, then white) = (4/22)(7/21) = 2/33
