In segment rt, the midpoint is s. if segments rt= 6x - 11 and rs = 2x + 29, what is the measure of segment rt?
i need a picture that labels the midpoint and segments and i need the equation set up, measure for rt.

rt = 196

step-by-step explanation:

since s is the midpoint of rt then rs = st and

rt = rs + st ← substitute values

6x - 11 = 2x + 29 + 2x + 29 = 4x + 58 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

2x - 11 = 58 ( add 11 to both sides )

2x = 69 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 34.5

hence

rt = 6x - 11 = (6 × 34.5) - 11 = 207 - 11 = 196

answer: given that the roller coaster can accommodate 1600 riders per hour, thus the roller coaster can accomodate 1600 / 60 = 26.67 riders per minute.

given that there are 345 people in the line, the number of minutes it will take for the 345 persons to get into the roller coaster is given by 345 / 26.67 = 12.94 minutes.

therefore, it will take you 12.94 minutes to get to the front of the line.
