Step-by-step explanation:

Let the next number be x

'taking half the number to get the next number. is expressed as;

1/2 of 16 = x

x = 1/2 *16

x = 16/2

x = 8

What is the value of x?<br> 12 units<br> 15 units<br> 20 units<br> 25 units

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The answer is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the figure we see that

$(1).9^2+x^2=SR^2$

$(2).16^2+x^2=RQ^2$ and

$(3).SR^2+RQ^2=(9+16)^2$

Now from equations (1) and (2) we have values for $SR^2$ and $RQ^2,$ so we put those into the equation (3) and get:

$9^2+x^2+16^2+x^2=(9+16)^2$

$\rightarrow 337+2x^2=625$

$\boxed{\therefore x= 12.}$

Therefore the answer is 12 units.

Q=3(r+1)/r<br> Make r the subject of the formula

DiKsa [7]

Distribute the 3 to the parentheses. Q=3r+3/r

Next multiply both sides by r to get rid of the division sign.

Qr=3r+3

Subtract 3r on both sides and you get Qr-3r=3

Since both numbers have an r in it, we can factor out the r

r(Q-3)=3

Then we divide Q-3 on both sides

r=3 / (Q-3)
