Answer:

w = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

ST = w + 6,

PR = w

From the diagram given, we can deduce that PR is the midsegment of ∆QST. Therefore, according to the midsegment theorem:

PR = ½ of ST

Plug in the values into the equation and solve for w.

w = \frac{1}{2}(w + 6)

w = \frac{w}{2} + 3 (distributive property of equality)

w - 3 = \frac{w}{2} (subtraction property of equality)

2(w - 3) = \frac{w}{2}*2 (multiplication property of equality)

2w - 6 = w

2w - 6 - 2w= w - 2w (subtraction property of equality)

- 6 = - w

Divide both sides by -1

6 = w

w = 6

-104=-8(k+8) <br><br> K = ?<br> Solution please if can?
maksim [4K]

Let's solve this question by step by step.

Layout equation.

−104=−8(k+8)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−104=−8(k+8)

−104=(−8)(k)+(−8)(8)(Distribute)

−104=−8k+−64

−104=−8k−64

Step 2: Flip the equation.

−8k−64=−104

Step 3: Add 64 to both sides.

−8k−64+64=−104+64

−8k=−40

Step 4: Divide both sides by -8.

-8k/-8=-40/-8

The answer for this problem is k=5.
