Answer:
RQ = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
KR is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other two sides, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
45(38 - x) = 50x ← distribute left side
1710 - 45x = 50x ( add 45x to both sides )
1710 = 95x ( divide both sides by 95 )
18 = x
That is RQ = 18
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
This implies
x+2=4
and
-(x+2)=-4.
x+2=4 implies x=2 since subtract 2 on both sides gives us x=2.
Solving -(x+2)=-4 should give us the same value.
Multiply both sides by -1:
x+2=4
It is the same equation as the other.
You will get x=2 either way.
Let's check:
Put both sides into your calculator and see if you get the same thing on both sides:
Left hand side gives 256/81.
Right hand side gives 256/81.
Both side are indeed the same for x=2.
Given:
The graph of line.
To find:
The gradient of the line using rise/run method.
Solution:
We know that the gradient of a line is also known as slope.
Consider the two intercepts, then rise is distance between origin and y-intercept and run is the distance between origin and the x-intercept. But rise must be negative because the value of y decreased from 3 to 0.
Now,
The gradient of the line is .
Therefore, the correct option is C.
