Please Help!! This is Geometry.​

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.

One number added to three times another number is 24. Five times the first number added to three times the other number is 36. F
Lera25 [3.4K]
Okay, so the equations would be:
x + 3y = 24
3y + 5x = 36

Imma use Substitution to solve this:
x = -3y + 24

3y + 5(-3y + 24) = 36
3y - 15y + 120 = 36
-12y + 120 = 36
-12y = -84
y = 7

x = -3(7) + 24
x = -21 + 24
x = 3

So the first number (x) would be 3 and the second number (y) would be 7.

I need help with this its confusing me too much
Ann [662]
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Join A and C and B and D. And add numbers to the angles formed on one of the diagonal
In triangles ABC and ADC,
Angle 1 = Angle 4
Angle 3 = Angle 2
AC = AC
Therefore, triangle ABC=ADC
Since, ABC=ADC
Similarly, triangle ABD= triangle CDB
Therefore, AB=CD and BC=DA
