3x^2 / 4 = 48
Multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the four on the left.
3x^2 = 192
Divide both sides by 3
x^2 = 64
The square root 64 to get x
Remember there are two answers
x = 8 and x = -8
Answer:
42 units
Step-by-step explanation:
If R is the midpoint of QS, then by definition, QR = RS. Since QR = 8x - 51 and RS = 3x - 6, set these equal to solve for x:
QR = RS
8x - 51 = 3x - 6
5x = 45
x = 9
Now that we know x = 9, we can plug this back into one of the expressions for QR or RS to find its length:
QR = 8x - 51 = 8 * 9 - 51 = 72 - 51 = 21
Since half of QS is 21, then the whole of QS is twice that:
2 * 21 = 42
The answer is thus 42 units.

So, XZ= 7x+1 and PZ= 4x-1. To figure out XP we have to subtract those two.
(7x+1)-(4x-1)
3x-2
3(8)-2
24-2
22
XP=22
Hey there!
The answers to your question is 8 and 9.
We can look at all the addends of 17, and see what 2 multiply to 72.
Have a great day hope it helps!
