(2x + 10)(x - 9)
2x(x - 9) + 10(x - 9)
2x(x) - 2x(9) + 10(x) - 10(9)
2x² - 18x + 10x - 90
2x² - 8x - 90
Answer:
Use SAS to show that triangles PRQ and PRS are congruent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since PR bisects angle QPS, angles QPR and SPR are congruent. By reflexive property of congruence, PR is congruent to itself. Since PQ is congruent to PS, we can use SAS to show that the two triangles are congruent. By CPCTC, QR is congruent to SR.
Because ABCD is a rectangle, the length of CD is 12 cm.
We need to determine the length of DE. If we can do that, then the sum of the lengths of CD and DE represents the unknown: the length of CE.
To find the length of CE, we have to "solve" the upper triangle.
Here's an outline of what to do:
1. Show that BC=AD and find the length.
2. Note that angle CAD is 60 degrees. Why?
3. Note that angle EAD is 30 degrees. Why?
4. Find the length of ED
5. Add ED and DC, that is, ED + 12 cm. This is your answer.

Answer:
Bryce's speed (slow speed I might add) is 3
miles per hour.
Explanation:
s
/d=
t
where
s
= speed d= distance t = time.
Solving for
gives:
s
= 1/3 / 1/9
s= 9/3
s= 3 miles per hour
