Question

Can someone pls help?

Answer 1

RS=41

Explanation:

Because RT intersects the midpoint of QS, from doing some geometry we know that QRT and SRT are congruent triangles. Thus, RS=RQ because of cpctc

so, we can make the equation:

4x+5=7x-22

simplify

3x=27

x=9

now, plug that into 4x+5, and we get 36+5, or 41. RS=41

Answer 2

41

Explanation:

4x +5 = 7x -22

5 = 3x -22

27 = 3x

x = 27/3

x = 9

4(9) + 5 = RS

36+ 5 = RS

RS = 41
