Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the entire segment RT is the combined lengths of RS and ST. So:

We know that RT is 108, RS is (9y+5), and ST is (3y+7). Substitute:

On the right, combine like terms:

Add:

Subtract 12 from both sides. The right cancels:

Divide both sides by 12:

So, the value of y is 8.
To find RS and ST, substitute 8 for y. So:

Substitute 8 for y:

Multiply:

Add:

Do the same for ST:

Substitute 8 for y:

Multiply:

Add:

1.320 >1.302 or 1.302<1.320
Answer:
-81t^2 +16
Step-by-step explanation:
(9t-4)(-9t-4)
FOIL
first: -9t*9t = -81t^2
outer : -4*9t = -36t
inner : -4 *-9t = 46t
last = -4*-4 = 16
Add them together
-81t^2 -36t+36t+16
-81t^2 +16
