Question

Point p is on line segment oq. Given pq=x+7, op= 4x-10 and oq=4x. Determine the numerical length of oq

Answer 1

Answer:

x=3

Explanation:

pq+op=oq

so

x+7+4x-10=4x

5x-3=4x

5x-4x=3

x=3

Answer 2

Answer:12 units

Explanation:

OP+PQ=OQ

4x-10+x+7=4x

5x-3=4x

5x-4x=3

Therefore, x=3

OQ=4x

OQ=4*3

OQ=12 units

Hope it helps!!!
