I think by mental math it would be 2.8 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the diagram below, \overline{ST} ST is parallel to \overline{PQ} PQ. If STST is 55 more than QTQT, RT=10RT=10, and PQ=15PQ=15, find the length of \overline{QT} QT. Figures are not necessarily drawn to scale. State your answer in simplest radical form, if necessary.PQRTS
The length of the [tex]\overline{QT}[/tex] can be determined using the given information and
the relationship between corresponding sides of similar triangles.
[tex]\underline{\overline{QT} = 5}[/tex]Reasons:
The given parameters are;
[tex]\overline{ST} \parallel \overline{PQ}[/tex]
ST = QT + 5
RT = 10
PQ = 15
Required: The length of [tex]\overline{QT}[/tex]
Solution:
Using the relationship between corresponding sides of similar triangles, ΔRST and ΔRPQ, we have;
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\overline{ST}}{\overline{RT}} = \mathbf{\frac{\overline{PQ}}{\overline{RQ}}}[/tex]RQ = QT + RT
Therefore;
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\overline{ST}}{\overline{RT}} = \mathbf{\frac{\overline{PQ}}{\overline{QT} + \overline{RT}}}[/tex]Which gives;
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\overline{QT} + 5}{\overline{RT}} = \frac{\overline{PQ}}{\overline{QT} + \overline{RT}}[/tex]
Plugging in the known values gives;
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\overline{QT} + 5}{10} = \mathbf{\frac{15}{\overline{QT} + 10}}[/tex]
[tex](\overline{QT} + 5) \times (\overline{QT} + 10) = 10 \times 15[/tex]
[tex]\overline{QT}^2 + 10\cdot \overline{QT} + 5\cdot \overline{QT} + 50 = 10 \times 15[/tex]
[tex]\overline{QT}^2 + 15\cdot \overline{QT} + 50 - 150= 0[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\overline{QT}^2 + 15\cdot \overline{QT} -100} = 0[/tex]
Factorizing with a graphing calculator gives;
[tex](\overline{QT} -5) \cdot (\overline{QT} + 20)= 0[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\overline{QT} = 5} \ or \ \overline{QT} = -20[/tex]
Therefore, given that [tex]\overline{QT}[/tex] is a natural number, we have;
[tex]\underline{\overline{QT} = 5}[/tex]

The sum of two consecutive even integers is 122. What are the two numbers?
Answer:
Let the first number = xTherefore, the other number = x + 2 (x+2 is so as in two consecutive even numbers there is 1 odd number) Now, According to questionx + x + 2 = 1222x + 2 = 1222x = 122-22x = 120x = 120/2x = 60Now, first no. = x = 60Therefore, second no. = x + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62Equation 60 + 62 = 122Step-by-step explanation:
If you like my answer than please mark me brainliest
Answer:
The numbers are : 60 , 62
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two consecutive even numbers be 2x , 2x + 2
2x + 2x + 2 = 122
Combine like terms
4x + 2 = 122
Subtract 2 from both sides
4x = 122 - 2
4x = 120
x = 120/4
x = 30
2x = 2*30 = 60
2x + 2 = 2*30 + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62
Identify the point that is not on the line 15x + 60y = 180
a (4,2) c (12, 1)
b (0,3) d (8, 1)
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the coordinates of the points into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then the point lies on the line.
(4, 2 ) → 15(4) + 60(2) = 60 + 120 = 180 ← point on line
(12, 1 ) → 15(12) + 60(1) = 180 + 60 = 240 ← point not on line
(0, 3 ) → 15(0) + 60(3) = 0 + 180 = 180 ← point on line
(8, 1 ) → 15(8) + 60(1) = 120 + 60 = 180 ← point on line
The point (12, 1 ) is not on the line → c

The area in square feet of a rectangular field is x^2-80x+1500. the width, in feet, is x-30. what is the length in feet.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = x² - 80x + 1500
= x² -30x - 50x + 1500
= x(x - 30) - 50(x - 30)
= (x -30) (x - 50)
Length =(x -50) ft
Suzanne has 15 books and will buy 3 more each month. Jack has 57 books and will sell 4 books each month. After how many months will they have the same number of books? How many will that be?
They would both have the same number of books after 6 months.
The number of books they would have is 33.
This expression can be used to determine the number of books Suzanne would have after x months: 15 + 3x
This expression can be used to determine the number of books Jack would have after x months: 57 - 4x
In order to determine the month in which both people would have the same number of books, equate both expressions.
15 + 3x = 57 - 4x
Combine similar terms
3x + 4x = 57 - 15
7x = 42
Divide both sides b y 7
x = 6
Number of books they would have : 15 + 3(6) = 15 + 18 = 33

A car was traveling at 25 m/s when it slammed on the brakes and came to a complete stop in 3 seconds. What is the cars INITIAL/FINAL VELOCITY?
Answer:
Initial velocity = 25 m/s
Final velocity = 0 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial velocity is the speed in the beginning and final velocity is the speed in the end.
The problem says the car was traveling at 25 m/s, so that is the initial velocity. The end of the problem states the car came to a complete stop after 3 seconds. Therefore, the final velocity is 0 m/s.

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a right triangle, so the pythagorean theorem will be used a lot.
First, find the side length on the left.
25^2 = 7^2 + y
y = 24
Now, knowing that 7 - 3 = 4 (the smaller side length), I can use this theorem again to find x.
4^2 + 24^2 = x^2
x = [tex]\sqrt{592}[/tex]
Just need to simplify it a little farther...
592 / 16 = 37, so B must be the answer.

how do i solve -3x--3+8x-24=6x+7-5x
Answer:
[tex]x=7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-3x--3+8x-24=6x+7-5x[/tex]
Two negative signs equate to a positive sign, so we can write [tex]--3[/tex] as just [tex]3[/tex]:
[tex]-3x+3+8x-24=6x+7-5x[/tex]
Add up similar terms:
[tex]5x-21=x+7[/tex]
Add 21 to both sides:
[tex]5x-21+21=x+7+21[/tex]
[tex]5x=x+28[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides:
[tex]5x-x=x+28-x[/tex]
[tex]4x=28[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4:
[tex]\frac{4x}{x} =\frac{28}{4}[/tex]
[tex]x=7[/tex]

Compound $35.000 is invested at 5% compound interest. What is the interest at the end of three years?
Answer:
$40,516.86
Step-by-step explanation:
start by taking 35,000 and multiplying it by 0.05 to get 5% of the number. then add that number (1,750) to the original 35,000 and you should get 36,750. this would be the first year. Then multiply 36,750 by 0.05 again and add that number (1837.5) to the original 36,750 and you should get 38,587.5. Finally multiply that by 0.05 and add that number (1,929.375) to the original 38,587.5 and you should get 40516.875. Round to the hundredths since it is money.
Answer:
A = $40,516.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that interest is compounded annually:
The AMOUNT will be A = P(1 + r)^2, which here is
A = $35,000(1 + 0.05)^3, or
A = $40,516.88

Answer:
X is 38, y is 27.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because you are subtracting on the 90 degree angles.
Answer:
The answer is 27 degrees for x, and 38 degrees for y.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are many ways you could do this. The easiest one for me was if you look at the left side of the 180 degree line (CD), you take away 90 (straight angle) from 63, which equals 27 degrees (answer for x). Then, add up all the angles on the left side of the 180 degree line. However, you need to first work out a, which is 180-128=52 degrees. Now you can add them up. 52 degrees (a) plus 27 (m) plus 63 (n) = 142 degrees. Then take away 180 from 142, which equals 39 degrees for y. If you want to check this Add up all your known angle on the left side of the 180 degree line. 52 plus 27 plus 63 plus 38, which equals 180 degrees, which is correct.
