Point M is the midpoint of segment QR. If QM = 16 + x and MR = 2(x + 2), find the length of QR. QR = 12 QR = -12 QR = 28 QR = 56

1 answer:

6 0

The midpoint divided a segment into two congruent lengths/segments.

So, QM = MR.

Set up the equation.

16 + x = 2(x+ 2)

16 + x = 2x + 4

12 + x = 2x

12 = x

Now, that you have the value of x, substitute it for the two equations.

QM = 16 + x

QM = 16 + 12

QM = 28

MR = 2(12+ 2)

MR = 2(14)

MR = 28

Find the whole length by of the line by adding the two segments. 28 × 2 = 56.

QR = 56

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

$V=9\pi\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must start by graphing the given function and finding the differential area we will use to set our integral up. (See attached picture).

The formula we will use for this problem is the following:

$V=\int\limits^b_a {\pi r^{2}} \, dy$

where:

$r=6-(6-3 sec(y))$

$r=3 sec(y)$

a=0

$b=\frac{\pi}{3}$

so the volume becomes:

$V=\int\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0 {\pi (3 sec(y))^{2}} \, dy$

This can be simplified to:

$V=\int\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0 {9\pi sec^{2}(y)} \, dy$

and the integral can be rewritten like this:

$V=9\pi\int\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0 {sec^{2}(y)} \, dy$

which is a standard integral so we solve it to:

$V=9\pi[tan y]\limits^\frac{\pi}{3}_0$

so we get:

$V=9\pi[tan \frac{\pi}{3} - tan 0]$

which yields:

$V=9\pi\sqrt{3}$ ]
