X + y = 8
x - y = 12
--------------add
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10
x + y = 8
10 + y = 8
y = 8 - 10
y = -2
ur numbers are 10 and -2
Answer:
<h2>PT</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on a circular arc.</em>
The line PQ and QS are radiuses since they are a point from the center to the arc.
The lines PR is considered a diameter since it starts from an arc, runs through the center and ends at another arc.
The reciprocal of 1/10 is 10/1 or 10. For 16 it is 1/16. To make it easier you just flip or switch the denominator and numerator. Hope I was helpful.
X + 3x + 4x = 56
8x = 56
x = 7
The shortest piece is 7 inches
The middle piece is 7*3 = 21 inches.
The longest piece is 4*7 = 28 inches
Check
7 + 21 + 28 = 56 It does check and the lengths are correct.
