Question

In triangle NLM, point S is the centroid, QS = (3x – 5) cm, and NS = (4x) cm.

Triangle N L M has centroid S. Lines are drawn from each point to the midpoint of the opposite side to form line segments N Q, L R, and M P. The length of line segment N S is 4 x and the length of line segment S Q is 3 x minus 5.

What is NS?

5 cm
10 cm
20 cm
30 cm

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

Answer 2

NS= 20

Explanation:

4x / 3x-5 (2/1)

4x / 6x-10

-6x -6x

-2x / -10

X / 5

X=5

NS= 4x

NS= 4(5)

NS= 20
