Sorry I'm late, here are the equations, just solve for x! Treat the inequalities like an = sign and solve!!
The value of x is 2 because the centroid of the triangle divides each median in the ratio of 2:1 option (C) is correct.
<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>The triangle can be defined as a three-sided polygon in geometry, and it consists of three vertices and three edges. The sum of all the angles inside the triangle is 180°.
The question is incomplete.
The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.
We have:
RQ = 3x+2 ,QN = 2x and SM=3x
In the figure, the TM, Rn, and SL are medians of the triangle SRT and Q is the centroid.
The centroid of the triangle divides each median in the ratio 2:1
RQ/QN = 2/1
(3x+2)/2x = 2/1
After solving:
3x + 2 = 4x
x = 2
Thus, the value of x is 2 because the centroid of the triangle divides each median in the ratio of 2:1 option (C) is correct.
