Given:

It is stated that

PQ ⊥ PS and

∠QPR = 7x-9

∠RPS = 4x+22

To find the measure of ∠QPR.

Formula

According to the problem PR sits between PQ and PS,

Consequently,

∠QPR+∠RPS = 90°

Now,

Inserting the values for ∠RPS and ∠QPR yields

7x-9+4x+22 = 90

or, 11x = 90-22+9

or, 11x = 77

or, x = \frac{77}{11}

or, x = 7

Substituting the value of x = 7 into ∠QPR gives us

∠QPR = 7(7)-9

or, ∠QPR = 40^\circ

So,

The measure of ∠QPR is 40°.

Inessa [8979]
To simplify the expression:
-(6 x^3 - 2 x + 3) - 3 x^3 + 5 x^2 + 4 x - 7

Start with - (6 x^3 - 2 x + 3) = -6 x^3 + 2 x - 3:
-6 x^3 + 2 x - 3 - 3 x^3 + 5 x^2 + 4 x - 7

Next, combine similar terms: -3 x^3 - 6 x^3 + 5 x^2 + 4 x + 2 x - 7 - 3 = (-3 x^3 - 6 x^3) + 5 x^2 + (4 x + 2 x) + (-7 - 3):
(-3 x^3 - 6 x^3) + 5 x^2 + (4 x + 2 x) + (-7 - 3)

-3 x^3 - 6 x^3 results in -9 x^3:
-9 x^3 + 5 x^2 + (4 x + 2 x) + (-7 - 3)

Combine 4 x and 2 x to get 6 x:
-9 x^3 + 5 x^2 + 6 x + (-7 - 3)

The operation -7 - 3 yields -10:
-9 x^3 + 5 x^2 + 6 x - 10

Factoring out -1 from -9 x^3 + 5 x^2 + 6 x - 10 leads to:
Final Answer: - (9 x^3 - 5 x^2 - 6 x + 10)

Svet_ta [9481]

Let the events be defined as follows:
A=Nathan suffers from an allergy
~A=Nathan does not suffer from an allergy
T=Nathan receives a positive test result
~T=Nathan does not receive a positive test result

According to the provided data,
P(A)=0.75 [ probability indicating that Nathan is allergic ]
P(T|A)=0.98 [ probability of obtaining a positive test result if Nathan is allergic to Penicillin]

We aim to calculate the probability that Nathan is both allergic and tests positive
P(T n A)

Using the definition of conditional probability,
P(T|A)=P(T n A)/P(A)
By substituting the known values,
0.98 = P(T n A) / 0.75
We then solve for P(T n A)
P(T n A) = 0.75*0.98 = 0.735

Hope this assists you!!
