We know that
if PQ <span>is the perpendicular bisector of line MN
then
MQ=QM
and
NP=MP
so
6x+1=10x-17----------> 10x-6x=17+1-----> 4x=18---------> x=18/4----> x=4.5

QN=2x+5-----> QN=2*4.5+5-----> QN=14

the answer is
QN is 14</span>

The product of two consecutive even positive integers is 674 more than the sum of the two integers. Find the integers.

IrinaVladis [17]

$2n(2n+2)=2n+2n+2+674\\
4n^2+4n=4n+676\\
4n^2=676\\
n^2=169\\
n=-13 \vee n=13$
$-13\not\ \textgreater \ 0$

$n=13\\
2n=26\\
2n+2=28$

It's 26 and 28.

Chang is estimating the volume of his bathtub the actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal chang’s estimate is 31 gal find the abs

stepladder [879]

<h3>The absolute error is 6</h3><h3>The percent error is 16.22 %</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal

Estimate is 31 gal

<em><u>Find the absolute error</u></em>

Absolute Error = | Measured Value - Actual Value |

Absolute Error = | 31 - 37 |

Absolute Error = 6

<em><u>Find the percent error</u></em>

$Percent\ error = \frac{\text{estimate - actual}}{actual} \times 100$

Substituting we get,

$percent\ error = \frac{31-37}{37} \times 100\\\\percent\ error = \frac{-6}{37} \times 100\\\\percent\ error = -16.22$

Negative sign means percent decrease

Thus percent error is 16.22 %

The longer leg of a 30,-60,-90 degree triangle is 18: what is the length of the other leg

taurus [48]

Answer:

The other legs are 9 and 9√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The longer side of a 30-60-90 degree rectangle is 18.

The other legs will be

$\frac{x}{2}$

and

$\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{3}$

Where x is the longest side, which is given as 18.

Therefore one leg will be:

$\frac{18}{2} = 9$

and the other leg will be:

$\frac{18}{2} \sqrt{3} = 9 \sqrt{3}$
