(x-4)² + (x-2)² = x²
(x² - 8x + 16 ) + (x² - 4x + 4) = x
2x² -12x + 20 = x
2x²-12x + 20 - x = 0
2x² - 13x + 20 = 0
(2x-5) (x-4) = 0
2x-5 = 0
2x = 5
x = ⁵/₂
x-4 = 0
x = 4
so x₁ = ⁵/₂ , and x₂ = 4
Answer:
for m∠SRQ x = 3
for m∠QRP x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 6x +2. 6 is being multiplied by a number so to find that number we do teh opposite
6x/2 = 3
drop the x then u have x = 3
2. 2x+10. 2 is being muliplied by a number so to find that number we do teh opposite
10/2x = 5
drop the x then u have x = 5
