Answer:

#1:


4x - 15 + 2x + 3 = 48\\\\2x + 18 = 48\\\\2x = 30\\\\x = 15

#2:

Part 1: Solve for x


6x - 7 = 5x + 1\\\\x - 7 = 1\\\\x = 8

Part 2: Plug in x for PQ


6(8) - 7\\\\48 - 7\\\\41

The length of segment PQ is 41.

Part 3: Plug in x for QR


5(8) + 1\\\\40 + 1\\\\41

The length of segment QR is 41.

Part 4: Length of PQ + length of QR = length of PR

PQ + QR = PR

41 + 41 = PR

82 = PR

The length of segment PR is 82.
