Answer:
RS = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a segment joining the midpoints of 2 sides of a triangle then it is half the length of the third side, that is
- 5x + 44 = (18 + 4x) ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )
- 10x + 88 = 18 + 4x ( add 10x to both sides )
88 = 18 + 14x ( subtract 18 from both sides )
70 = 14x ( divide both sides by 14 )
5 = x
Then
RS = - 5x + 44 = - 5(5) + 44 = - 25 + 44 = 19

Input is the same as the x-term and output is the same as the y-term.
For example, take a look at the image provided with thee table.
Looking at the first box of our table, notice that if we subtract 5 from 1, we get -4 and if we subtract 5 from 2 we get -3 and if we subtract 5 from 3, we get -2. Notice that in each case, we're subtracting 5 from the input to get the output.
I attached a table so you can practice if you'd like to. All you have to do is subtract 5 from each input and you will end up with the output. The first few are done for you. I also provided an answer key in the next image so you can check your work.
The last one might be a little trick. In the input, we have n which is a variable that represents any number. If we want to find the nth term, we simply subtract 5. So we have n - 5.
First image is practice if you'd like and the second is the key.
If you don't want to do it, no worries.
