Answer:
<h2>
QS = 42</h2><h2>
</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
R is midpoint
|<---------------- QS -------------------->|
Q---------------------R--------------------S
8x - 51 3x - 6
find: QS
QR = RS
8x - 51 = 3x - 6
8x - 3x = 51 - 6
5x = 45
x = 45/5
x = 9
QS = QR + RS
QS = (8x - 51) + (3x - 6)
plugin the value of x=9 into the equation above:
QS = (8(9) - 51) + (3(9) - 6)
QS = 72 - 51 + 27 - 6
QS = 42
Hello there!
3x - y = 3
-x + y = 3
We need to solve 3x - y = 3 for y
Let start by adding -3x to both sides
3x - y = 3
3x - 3x - y = 3 - 3x
-y = 3 - 3x
We cannot leave the variable with a negative sign. We must multiply both sides by -1
-y * -1= (3 - 3x)-1
y = 3x - 3
Substitute 3x -3 for y in -x+y=3
-x + y = 3
-x + 3x - 3 = 3
2x - 3 = 3
2x = 3 + 3
2x = 6
x = 6/2
x = 3
Now substitute 3 for x in y=3x -3
y = 3x - 3
y = 3(3) - 3
y= 9 - 3
y= 6
Thus,
The answer is x=3 and y=6
