Answer:
ST = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Line segment RS and segment ST must add up to line segment RT
Step 1: Define
RS = 17
ST = x + 6
RT = 3x - 5
Step 2: Set up equation
mRS + mST = mRT
17 + x + 6 = 3x - 5
Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>
x + 23 = 3x - 5
23 = 2x - 5
28 = 2x
x = 14
Step 3: Find mST
ST = x + 6
ST = 14 + 6
ST = 20
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If the average wasn't shifted at all, that means the third value must've been the same as the average to not shift it.
First way: x * 1.05
This computes directly what 105% of x will be.
Second way: x + (x * 0.05)
This takes x (which is 100%) and adds 5% of x to it.
