Please Help!! This is Geometry.​

Mathematics

If M is the midpoint of PQ, then PM and MQ are equal.

As PM and MQ are given , equal them to each other to solve for x.

7x+8=5x+20

Subtract 5x on both sides to get 2x+8=20

Subtract 8 on both sides to get 2x=12

divide by 2 on both sides to get x=6

Use the value of x=6 and plug it into the equations for PM and MQ to find their value.

PM=7x+8

=7(6) 8 =42 + 8 = 50

(you can already tell MQ is also 50 as PM and MQ are equal, but we still solve for MQ just for the fun of it)

MQ=5x + 20

=5(6) +20=30+20=50

PM=50

MQ=50

PQ= PM + MQ= 50 + 50 = 100

Have a great night.

A line has a slope of -2/3 and passes through the point (–3, 8). What is the equation of the line?
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

y=-2/3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so the formula to find slope is y=mx+b, so we would start off by writing that. M in the equation represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

y=-2/3x+b

y=-2/3x+8

PLEASE HELP ME~! NEED THIS ASAP
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

since y and x vary directly the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use any ordered pair from the list given

using x = 4 when y = - 2, then

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-2}{4} = - 0.5 → B

You distribute the 4 to both x and 5. 4 times x is 4x and 4 times 5 is 20. Divide both sides by 4. X=5
