Answer:
RT = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Point S is on line segment
R------------S------------T
RS + ST = RT
Given
ST=3x-8
RT=4x
RS=4x-7,
Step 1
We find x
4x - 7 + 3x - 8 = 4x
4x + 3x -7 - 8 = 4x
7x - 15 = 4x
7x - 4x = 15
3x = 15
x = 15/3
x = 5
Step 2
We find RT
RT = 4x
x = 5
RT = 4 × 5
RT = 20
The numerical length of RT is 20
Well, 18 yards is 54 feet.
Let us assume the first integer to be = x
Then
The second integer will be = x + 1
The sum of the two consecutive integers =185
Then
x + x + 1 = 185
2x + 1 = 185
2x = 184
x = 92
From the above deduction, we can easily conclude that the smallest of the two integers is 92. I hope that the answer has helped you.
