given RST=NPQ, RT= 7x-5, NQ=5x+11, find the length of RT and NQ
a. 8
b. 51
c. 40
d. 56
please help me
Ok with x = 8
BUT, it asked for the length of RT and NQ
if x = 8, RT = 7x-5 = 56 - 5 = 51
notice that NQ = 5x+11 = 40+11 = 51, the same as required
So your choice would be b)
its 51
Yup they’re right :)
I just took the test and B is the correct answer
bruh how are they right they all have different answers??

y'all is different
To find the length of RT and NQ, we need to substitute the given values into the equations for RT and NQ.
First, let's rewrite the given equation RST = NPQ as RS + ST = NP + PQ.
Since RS = RT, we can rewrite the equation as RT + ST = NP + PQ.
Now substitute the given values: RT = 7x - 5 and PQ = 5x + 11.
RT + ST = NP + PQ
(7x - 5) + ST = NP + (5x + 11)
To find the values of RT and NQ, we need more information. Do you have any additional measurements or equations that could help us solve for these values?
7x-5= 5x+11
2x = 16
x = 8
The answer is A.
