Answer:

PQ = 1 ft

QR = 4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Segment PR has been divided into two parts by a point Q.

Length of segment PR = 5 feet

Length of segment PQ = (15x - 2) ft

Length of segment QR = (5x + 3) ft

Since, PR = PQ + QR

5 = (15x - 2) + (5x + 3)

5 = 20x + 1

20x = 4

x = \frac{4}{20}

x = 0.2

PQ = 15x - 2

     = 15(0.2) - 2

     = 3 - 2

     = 1 ft

QR = 5x + 3

     = 5(0.2) + 3

     = 1 + 3

     = 4 ft

How many solutions does the<br> equation have?<br> 3(7/3 + 4/3) - 2x + 8 = 5x + 12
Finger [1]

Answer: It only has one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3( 7 /3 + 4 /3 )−2x+8=5x+12

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3( 7 /3 + 4 /3 )−2x+8=5x+12

11+−2x+8=5x+12

(−2x)+(11+8)=5x+12(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+19=5x+12

−2x+19=5x+12

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

−2x+19−5x=5x+12−5x

−7x+19=12

Step 3: Subtract 19 from both sides.

−7x+19−19=12−19

−7x=−7

Step 4: Divide both sides by -7.

−7x /−7 = −7 /−7

x=1

Answer:

x=1

I forgot to label the triangle below! I just know that the cos A = 0.48. Based on this information, which angle should be marked
lianna [129]

Answer:

angle 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric mnemonic SOH CAH TOA, we know that cos or cosine is the ratio between the adjacent side and hypotenuse side.

This means that if cos A = 0.48, A is the measure of the angle which it's relative adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle will be around 0.48.

Let's try angle 2, cos (angle 2) = adjacent / hypotenuse = 7.8 / 8.9 = 0.876404494382 ≈ 0.87 ≠ 0.48. Since the proportions are not equal, this angle cannot be the one marked as A.

Since angle 3 is a right angle, the adjacent could be either side so it cannot be correct. Thus angle 1 is correct.
