Step-by-step explanation:
The expressions are not properly written
Given
RS = 4x – 9
ST = 19
RT = 8x – 14
Based on the given parameters, the addition postulate below is true
RS+ST = RT
Substitute
4x-9+19 = 8x-14
collect like terms
4x-8x = -14-19+9
-4x = -33+9
-4x = -24
x = -24/-4
x = 6
Get RS:
RS = 4x-9
RS = 4(6)- 9
RS = 24-9
RS = 15
Get RT:
RT = 8x - 14
RT = 8(6)-14
RT = 48-14
RT = 34
Answer:
Line N is a vertical line with an undefined slope.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the points that line N passes through are graphed, they form a vertical line.
All vertical lines have an undefined slope.
We can also check if it's undefined by finding the slope.

The quotient would be undefined. You cannot divide by zero.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
1. 23.8
2. 7.7
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>for the first blank</u>
use sin because x is opposite and 25 is hypotenuse
set up an equation:
sin(72)= (x/25)
multiply both sides by 25:
25(sin(72))= (x/25)25
25(sin(72))= x
multiply 25 by sin(72):
23.8 = x
<u>for the second blank</u>
use cos because x is adjacent and 25 us hypotenuse
set up an equation:
cos(72)= (x/25)
multiply both sides by 25:
25(cos(72))= (x/25)25
25(cos(72))= x
multiply 25 by cos(72):
7.7= x
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following expressions
f(x) = x³-2x
g(x) =-x-2
We are to find (fog)(-5)
fog = f(g(x))
f(g(x)) = f(-x-2)
Replace x with -x-2 in f(x)
f(-x-2) = (-x-2)³-2(-x-2)
f(-x-2) = (-x-2)³+2x+4
fog = (-x-2)³+2x+4
Substitute x = -5 into the result
fog(-5) = (-x-2)³+2x+4
fog(-5) = (-(-5)-2)³+2(-5)+4
fog(-5) = (5-2)³-10+4
fog(-5) = 3³-6
fog(-5) = 27-6
fog(-5) = 21
Hence the required result of the composite function is 21
