Solution: For finding QR we need to apply Pythagoras Theorem
What is Pythagoras Theorem ?
ans : Pythagoras Theorem is the sum of square of two sides which is equal to the third side or the hypotenuse. This formula is valid oy incase of Right-Angled Traingle because one of three angles here is 90°
According to this law let's apply it in the diagram shown here.
- (Hypotenuse)² = (Adjacent)² + (Opposite)²
- (5x - 2)² = (QR)² + (3x - 1)²
- (QR)² = (5x - 2)² - (3x - 1)²
After factorising both of them we get
- (QR)² = 25x² - 20x + 4 - (9x² - 6x + 1)
- (QR)² = 25x² - 20x + 4 - 9x² + 6x - 1
So, QR is √(16x² - 14x + 3)
Answer:
10.5 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
4(5y−8−2)=185−15
(4)(5y)+(4)(−8)+(4)(−2)=185+−15(Distribute)
20y+−32+−8=185+−15
(20y)+(−32+−8)=(185+−15)(Combine Like Terms)
20y+−40=170
20y−40=170
20y−40+40=170+40
20y=210
20y/20=210/20
y=21/2
y=10.5

Answer:
1200 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent one way distance.
We have been given that a plane averaged 800 mph on a trip going east, but only 400 mph on the return trip.
The time taken while going east would be
.
The time taken while returning back would be
.
Since the total flying time in both directions was 4.5 hr, so we will equate sum of both times with 4.5 as:

Make a common denominator:







Therefore, the one-way distance was 1200 miles.
