Answer:
QR = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
PR = PQ + QR
PR = x + 19
PQ = 9
So now put what you know in the equation above.
PR = 9 + 2x + 19
PR also equals x + 19
so
x + 19 = 9 + 2x + 19
x + 19 = 2x + 28
19 - 28 + x = 2x
-9 + x = 2x
-9 = 2x - x
-9 = x
===================
QR = 2x + 19
QR = 2*-9 + 19
QR = -18 + 19
QR = 1
This really is kind of a nasty question. You don't expect to get a minus number of x.

Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
The "x-intercept" occurs when y=0, because it is at this point that the equation touches the x axis. So if you plug in y=0 into the equation you can solve for the x coordinate.
4x-2(0)-8=0
4x-8=0
4x=8
x=2
So the x-intercept is the point (2,0)
