Answer:

PQ = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

If R is the midpoint of PQ, then PR = RQ

⇒ 6x + 7 = 3x + 8

⇒ 3x = 1

⇒ x = 1/3

So PR = 6x + 7 = 6(1/3) + 7 = 9

and RQ = 3x + 8 = 3(1/3) + 8 = 9

⇒ PQ = PR + RQ = 9 + 9 = 18

A store had 100 t-shirts. Each month, 30% of the t-shirts were sold and 25 new t-shirts arrived in shipments. Which recursive fu
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

f(a_n) = 0.7f(a_{n-1}) + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of t-shirts a in month n is 70% of the number of t-shirts in month n-1 plus 25 because they always sell 30% of the t-shirts and get 25 t-shirts in shipments. f(0)=100 can be included as an after-thought.

In △ABC, AB = 13.2m,
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

(i) ∠ABH  = 14.5°

(ii) The length of AH = 4.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we will follow the steps below;

(i)Finding  ∠ABH

first lets find <HBC

<BHC + <HBC + <BCH  = 180°  (Sum of interior angle in a polygon)

46° + <HBC  + 90 = 180°

 <HBC+ 136°  = 180°

subtract 136 from both-side of the equation

 <HBC+ 136° - 136°  = 180° -136°

 <HBC  = 44°

lets find <ABC

To do that, we need to first find <BAC

Using the sine rule

\frac{sin A}{a} =  \frac{sin C}{c}

A = ?

a=6.9

C=90

c=13.2

\frac{sin A}{6.9} = \frac{sin 90}{13.2}

sin A = 6.9 sin 90  /13.2

sinA = 0.522727

A = sin⁻¹ ( 0.522727)

A ≈ 31.5 °

<BAC  = 31.5°

<BAC + <ABC + <BCA = 180° (sum of interior angle of a triangle)

31.5° +<ABC + 90° = 180°

<ABC  + 121.5°  = 180°

subtract 121.5° from both-side of the equation

<ABC  + 121.5° - 121.5°  = 180° - 121.5°

<ABC = 58.5°

<ABH = <ABC - <HBC

           =58.5° - 44°

            =14.5°

∠ABH = 14.5°

(ii) Finding the length of AH

To find length AH, we need to first find ∠AHB

<AHB + <BHC = 180°  ( angle on a straight line)

<AHB + 46° = 180°

subtract 46° from both-side of the equation

<AHB + 46°- 46° = 180° - 46°

<AHB  = 134°

Using sine rule,

\frac{sin 134}{13.2}  = \frac{sin 14.5}{AH}

AH = 13.2 sin 14.5 / sin 134

AH≈4.6 m

length AH = 4.6 m

What is the correct simplified version of the expression 32x + 8 - 34x?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

  -2x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms involving x are "like" terms, so their coefficients are added when the terms are combined.

  = 32x -34x +8

  = (32 -34)x +8 . . . . . x is factored out according to the distributive property

  = -2x +8
