The length of SR is 10 inches ⇒ answer B
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of a triangle is the segment drawn from one vertex to
the mid-point of the opposite side to this vertex
In Δ PQR
1. QS is a median
2. RT is a median
We need to find the length of SR
∵ QS is a median in Δ PQR
∵ PR is the opposite side to vertex Q
∴ S is the mid-point PR
∴ PS = SR
∵ PS = 4x - 2
∵ SR = 2x + 4
∴ 4x - 2 = 2x + 4
- Subtract 2x from both sides
∴ 2x - 2 = 4
- Add 2 to both sides
∴ 2x = 6
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 3
Substitute the value of x in the expression of SR
∵ SR = 2x + 4
∵ x = 3
∴ SR = 2(3) + 4
∴ SR = 6 + 4
∴ SR = 10 inches
The length of SR is 10 inches

Answer:
The height of the lamp is 18.33 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We can think in two triangle rectangles, one with cathetus of:
5.5ft and 6ft (the one formed by the woman ad her shadow)
And another triangle with cathetus equal to:
6ft + 14ft (the distance between the end of the shadow and the lamp)
And the other cathetus is the height of the lamp, H.
As bot triangles will share an angle (the one formed by the end of the shadow and the hypotenuse) then the triangles are equivalent, so the quotient between their cathetus will be equal, this is:
H/(6ft + 14ft) = 5.5ft/6ft
H/(20ft) = 5.5ft/6ft.
H = (5.5ft/6ft)*20ft = 18.33 ft
Answer:
A. y = 3x/4
Step-by-step explanation:
a proportional relationship between x and y is a straight line passing through the origin (0, 0).
The equation must be in the form y = kx.
y = 3x/4
y = 3/4x
Answer:
(0, 7.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Compare the equation to the standard-form equation of a circle:
(x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2 . . . . . . . center at (h, k); radius r
You will notice that ...
h = 0
k = 7.5
The center is (h, k) = (0, 7.5).
