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.

Find the missing values in the following figures

jekas [21]

Answer:

15.

x = 40/9 = 4 4/9

z = 24/5 = 4 4/5

17.

x = 50

y ≈ 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

15. Corresponding segments are proportional:

top right side / whole right side = x / 8

5/(5+4) = x/8

x = 8(5/9) = 40/9

x = 4 4/9

right side bottom / right side top = z / 6

z = 6(4/5) = 24/5

z = 4 4/5

____

17. The acute angles are complementary:

x = 90 -40 = 50

From the Pythagorean theorem:

y = √(15² -9.6²) = √132.84

y ≈ 11.5

Answer:

height is 15

Y = L = Length

therefore 15y = (-x^2) +(300/20)

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = -x^2 +(300/20)

is the same as;

15 = (300/20) - (x^2)

we just add y to 15 and that can represent a division for x

y = L

Where area cm^2 can be shown as 300 as 15 x 20 = 300

when we divide by length we get the height as asked in the question.

Answer:

therefore the correct options are:

B. the equation is an exponential decay equation.

F. $28000 represents the initial cost of an automobile that depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the cost of an automobile is given by the equation is

C(t) = $28000\times(0.73)^{t}$ , where C(t) represents the cost and t represents the time in years

ii) the above equation is an exponential decay equation. It is a decay equation because growth rate is 0.73 which is less than 1 and greater than zero.

ii) when t = 0 then the cost is C(0) = 28000 represents the initial cost.

iii) from the equation in i) we can understand that the cost depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.

therefore the correct options are:

B. the equation is an exponential decay equation.

F. $28000 represents the initial cost of an automobile that depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.
