Question

Don’t understand pls help

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of segment PS is 52. To solve for x, we can simply add 5x (which is the length of segment PR) and x-8 (which is the length of segment RS) together and make the equation equal to 52 to solve for x.

• 5x+x-8 = 52
• 6x - 8 = 52
• 6x = 60
• x = 10

Answer 2

x = 10. Look at the work of the person above for explanation. (I did it wrong the first time so I had to delete my work)
