Congruent means they are the same length.
Set both lines equal to each other and solve for x:
x + 5 = 2x -10
Subtract x from both sides:
5 = x -10
Add 10 to both sides:
x = 15
Now you have a value for x, replace x in the equation of the line and solve:
QR = x +5 = 15 +5 = 20
Yes, this is all correct!
Answer:
The slope in the equation is -1/2
<span>A) 4x − 2y − z = −5
B) x − 3y + 2z = 3
C) 3x + y − 2z = −5
Looking at ALL 4 solutions, x =0 in all of them.
So, let's say x = 0, eliminate the "x's" and just keep equations B and C
</span>
<span>B) -3y + 2z = 3
C) y − 2z = −5
</span>Add B) and C)
-2 y = -2
y = 1
<span>1 − 2z = −5
</span>-2z = -6
z = 3
and x = 0
