<u>Given</u>:
Given that the triangle PQR is similar to SQT.
The length of PS is (x + 5)
The length of SQ is 8.
The length of ST is (x - 9)
The length of PR is 21.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
Using the similar triangles property, we shall determine the value of x.
Hence, we have;

Substituting the values, we get;


Cross multiplying, we get;



The value of x can be determined using the quadratic formula.
Thus, we have;






Since, x cannot take negative values, then x = 16.
Hence, the value of x is 16.
<span>We know that
there is no universal acceptance meaning of a percentile. When someone told you
that you are in the 80th percentile, the meaning of that is you
have achieved the lowest score that is greater than 80 percent of the score. It is calculated by using the formula <span>R = P/100 x (N + 1)</span></span>

It depends on the quality of the balls. It also depends on where you are buying them. Do you have any more details?
If the coefient in front of the squared term is positive, it opens to the right or up
if it is in front of x^2, it opens up
if it is in front of y^2, it opens right
opens to the right
