Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram

PR + RQ = PQ

PR + RQ = 38

PR = 38 - RQ

using similar triangle;

KQ/RQ = KP/PR

45/RQ = 50/38-RQ

Cross multiply

50RQ = 45(38-RQ)

50RQ = 1710 - 45RQ

50RQ + 45RQ = 1710

95RQ = 1710

RQ = 1710/95

RQ = 18

Hence the length of RQ is 18

At 106°F, a certain insect chirps at a rate of 67 times per minute, and at 108°F, they chirp 83 times per minute. Write an equat

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$y=8x-781$

Here, $x$ represents temperature and $y$ denotes rate of chirping per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ represents temperature and $y$ denotes rate of chirping per minute.

At $106$ °F, a certain insect chirps at a rate of $67$ times per minute.

Take $(x_1,y_1)=(106,67)$

At $108$ °F, they chirp $83$ times per minute.

Take $(x_2,y_2)=(108,83)$

Slope intercept form:

$y-y_1=(\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1})(x-x_1)$

$y-67=(\frac{83-67}{108-106})(x-106)\\\\y-67=(\frac{83-67}{108-106})(x-106)\\\\y-67=(\frac{16}{2})(x-106)\\\\y-67=8(x-106)\\y-67=8x-848\\y=8x+67-848\\y=8x-781$
