The matrices must be the same size
Good luck
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the value of x
we know that
r is the midpoint of qs
so
QR=RS
QS=QR+RS------> QS=2RS -----> equation A
RT=RS+ST ----> equation B
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Substitute the given values in the equation B and solve for x





step 2
Find the value of RS

substitute the value of x


step 3
Find the value of QS
Remember equation A
QS=2RS
so

Answer:
the cyclists rode at 35 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the cyclists stopped, and accelerated instantaneously at the same speed than before but in opposite direction , then
distance= speed*time
since the cyclists and the train reaches the end of the tunnel at the same time and denoting L as the length of the tunnel :
time = distance covered by cyclists / speed of cyclists = distance covered by train / speed of the train
thus denoting v as the speed of the cyclists :
7/8*L / v = L / 40 mph
v = 7/8 * 40 mph = 35 mph
v= 35 mph
thus the cyclists rode at 35 mph
