Question

Find the value of n if

Point S lies between points R and T and RS=6n, ST=35 and RS=42.

A. 7
B. 5.83
C. 1.17
D. 12.83

Answer 1

so make an equation. You now that RS=6n and RS=42. ST is the total sum of all points so the equation would be 6(42)=35. 6X42= 252. Divide 252 by 35 and your answer should be A: 7

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: A. 7

Explanation:

Given : Point S lies between points R and T and RS=6n, ST=35 and RS=42.

Since , RS = 6n and RS = 42

It means

`6n =42` [By property of equality]

To find the value of n , we divide both sides by 6 , we get

`n=7`

Therefore , the value of n is 7.

Hence , the correct option is A. 7.
