(1)
we are given
U is the midpoint of RS
and we have

so, we can use formula

we can plug values

............Answer
(2)
V is the midpoint of ST
so, we get

now, we can plug values

divide both sides by 2
.........Answer
(3)
now, we can find y
W is the midpoint of TR
so, we get

we can plug value

divide both sides by 3

(4)
we can see that
triangles URW and RST are similar
so, their sides ratios must be equal
so, we get

we can plug values



...........Answer
(5)
we can see that
triangles SUV and RST are similar
so, their sides ratios must be equal
so, we get

now, we can plug values


.............Answer
6x^2 - 8 = 4x^2 + 7x
6x^2 - 4x^2 - 7x - 8 = 0
2x^2 - 7x - 8 = 0
discriminant = b^2 - 4ac; where a = 2, b = -7 and c = -8
d = (-7)^2 - 4(2)(-8)
d = 49 + 64
d = 113
the discriminant is greater than zero, so there are two real roots
Alright, lets get started.
If Matthew wants to complete packages at an average rate of at least 39 packages per hour.
And they worked 4 hrs only due to picnic, yesterday, it means they have to make
packages.
But they made only 112 packages means they are short of
packages.
Suppose they are working today t hrs, and his department will complete 43 packages per hour today.
It means they are going to make 43 t packages today.
This 43 t packages includes those 44 too , which they are short of yesterday due to picnic.
So, average will be
(39 average given in question)
Cross multiplying

Adding 44 in both sides


Subtracting 39 t in both sides


Dividing 4 in both sides
t = 11 hrs
Hence they have to woth 11 hrs today : Answer
Hope it will help :)
