Answer:
XQ = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question it asks for XQ instead of x, but you need to find x first.
1. Find x.
XQ is half of MQ so this statement is true: 3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)
Solve for x.
3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)
Distribute 2.
3x - 3 = 4x - 12
Isolate x.
3x = 4x - 9
-x = -9
Divide -1 out.
x = 9
Now solve for XQ, which the equation is given.
XQ = 2(9) - 6
XQ = 18 - 6
XQ = 12
Answer:
Approximately 55% of enrolled students are women.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percentage of a given set of data, you need to divide the number of actual students by the total number of students. In this case, they are wanting the percentage of just women students at the university:
x 100 = 55%
Answer:
-18.4 + 35.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the method keep; change; flip.
Keep the negative -18.4
Change the minus sign to a plus sign
Flip the -35.4 to a positive 35.4
Even though the equations are different the answer is still the same.
Hope this helps!
Square have 4 equal sides length = a
A = 255
A = a^2
255 = a^2 |sqrt
15 = a
P = 4a
P = 4*15 = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll do the first one as an example.
"What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from K(-5,-4) to L(5,1) that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3 to 2?"
Let's call the point we're trying to find P. Ratio of 3 to 2 means that the distance from K to P divided by the distance from P to L is 3/2.
KP / PL = 3 / 2
Which also means the horizontal distances and vertical distances between the points have a ratio of 3:2.
KxPx / PxLx = 3 / 2
KyPy / PyLy = 3 / 2
First, let's use the x coordinates:
(x − (-5)) / (5 − x) = 3 / 2
(x + 5) / (5 − x) = 3 / 2
2 (x + 5) = 3 (5 − x)
2x + 10 = 15 − 3x
5x = 5
x = 1
And now with the y coordinates:
(y − (-4)) / (1 − y) = 3 / 2
(y + 4) / (1 − y) = 3 / 2
2 (y + 4) = 3 (1 − y)
2y + 8 = 3 − 3y
5y = -5
y = -1
So the point P is at (1,-1).
