Line n is a perpendicular bisector of line segment T V. It intersects line segment T V at point R. Line n also contains points Q and S. Line segment R V is 3 x + 2. Line segment Q V is 4 x + 1. Line segment T S is 9 x minus 4. The length of TR is 17 units. What are the lengths of SV and QT?

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer

  answer:

  write 548 as 500 + 40 + 8. multiply each addend by 5. then add the three products to get 2,740.
