Point S is on line segment \overline{RT} RT . Given RT=4x,RT=4x, ST=5x-10,ST=5x−10, and RS=6,RS=6, determine the numerical length of \overline{ST}. ST .

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]ST = 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]RT =4x[/tex]

[tex]ST = 5x - 10[/tex]

[tex]RS = 6[/tex]

Required

Determine ST

Since S is on RT, we have that:

[tex]RT = RS + ST[/tex]

[tex]4x = 5x - 10 + 6[/tex]

[tex]4x = 5x - 4[/tex]

[tex]4x - 5x= - 4[/tex]

[tex]-x= - 4[/tex]

[tex]x= 4[/tex]

Substitute 4 for x in [tex]ST = 5x - 10[/tex]

[tex]ST = 5 * 4 - 10[/tex]

[tex]ST = 20 - 10[/tex]

[tex]ST = 10[/tex]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

- 6 ÷ - 3 = - 12 ÷ - 6 = - 24 ÷ - 12 = 2

This indicates the sequence is geometric with n th term

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ [tex]r^{n-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = - 3 and r = 2 , thus

The perimeter is side A + side B + side C.

so it's 9b+8 + 12b-8 + 12b-8

Add all the like terms

9b + 12 b + 12b = 33b

8 - 8 - 8= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

65° + 15x + 10 = 180° (co-interior angles are equal)

15x + 75° = 180°

15x = 180° - 75°

15x = 105°

x = 105/15

Let's denote their names with letters;

Ariana = A

Boris = B

Cecile = C

Diego = D

We are told that Three of the four students will be chosen to attend a conference. This means that the sample space will be a set showing combination of any 3 out of the 4 students.

56°
66°
124°
236°

Answers

Answer:

56°

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180.

You would first set up the following problem:

91 + 33 + x = 180

You would now subtract 91 from both sides.

33 + x = 89

You would now subtract 33 from both sides.

x = 56

The value of x is 56 degrees.

Angle of triangle D is 56 degrees.

What is a triangle?

"A triangle is a simple closed curved made of three segments. A triangle has three sides and three angles, and all three sides and angles are called six elements of the triangle."

We have

Angle sum property of a triangle = [tex]180^{0}[/tex]

<B + <C + <D =  [tex]180^{0}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]91^{0}+33^{0} +x^{0}=180^{0}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x^{0}=180^{0}-91^{0}-33^{0}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x^{0}=56^{0}[/tex]

The value of x is 56 degrees.

Hence, angle of triangle D is 56 degrees.

The coordinates of B are: (a, b)=(-2, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (a, b) be the coordinates of the point 'B'.

As

The midpoint of AB is M(-4, 0)

The coordinates of A are (-6, 6)

The midpoint (x,y) of line joining points (x₁, x₂) and (y₁, y₂)

[tex]x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:y=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}[/tex]

-4 = (-6+a)/2  and  0 = (6+b)/2

-8=-6+a          

-8+6=a                  

a=-2

Answers

Answer:

y+1 = 3/4(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of a line, (1, -1) and (5, 2), we are to find the equation of the line in point-slope form.

The point slope form of the equation is generally expressed as;

y -y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point

Get the slope first;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 2-(-1)/5-1

m = 3/4

Substitute any of the point sat=y (1, -1) and m = 3/4 into the point slope form of the equation

y - (-1) = 3/4 (x-1)

y+1 = 3/4(x-1)

Hence the required equation is y+1 = 3/4(x-1)

For which values of A, B, and C will AX +BY=C be a vertical line through the point (8,6)
A. A=1, B=0, C=6
B. A=1, B=0, C=8
C. A=0, B=1, C=6
D. A=0, B=1, C=8

Answers

Answer:

B. A = 1, B = 0, C = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a vertical line is

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (8, 6) with x- coordinate 8, thus

x = 8 is the equation of the vertical line

In comparison to

Ax + By = C, then

A = 1, B = 0, C = 8, that is

x + 0 = 8

x = 8 being the required equation
