Applying the Pythagorean Theorem and the definition of Perpendicular Bisector, the missing measures are:

  • VT = 8
  • RS = 17

<h3>What is a Perpendicular Bisector of a Segment?</h3>
  • A perpendicular bisector is a segment is a segment that divides a segment into two equal halves.
  • Perpendicular bisector forms right angles at the point of intersection of the segment it bisects.

Thus:

VT = RV = 8

VT = 8

Applying Pythagorean Theorem:

VS = √(ST² - VT²)

Substitute

VS = √(17² - 8²)

VS = 15

Find RS using the Pythagorean Theorem:

RS = √(VS² + VR²)

Substitute

RS = √(15² + 8²)

RS = 17

Therefore, applying the Pythagorean Theorem and the definition of Perpendicular Bisector, the missing measures are:

VT = 8

RS = 17

Solve for R<br><br> 3 r + 4 <br> ---------- = 5 <br> 2<br><br> r = ?
lakkis [162]
To find r, first write out the equation:
\frac{3r+4}{2} =5
Next, multiply both sides by 2:
3r+4=10
Now, subtract both sides by 4:
3r = 6
Divide both sides by 3:
r=2

The answer to this problem is r = 2. Hope this helps and have a phenomenal day!

Jones covered a distance of 50 miles on his first trip. On a later trip he traveled 300 miles while going three times as fast. H
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The answer is b. But you asked for the thought process so...

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.

We know that

Speed = Distance/Time.

Or, Time = Distance/Speed.

So, the time taken to cover a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.

And the time taken to cover a distance of 300 miles on his later trip = 300/3x hr.

= 100/x hr.

So we can clearly see that his new time compared with the old time was: twice as much.

Have a great day :)
