A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. The length of Jk can be either 10 or 26.

<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.

Since in a rectangle the opposite sides are equal, therefore, the sides NM and JK will be equal.

JK = MN

8x - 14 = x² + 1

0 = x² - 8x + 15

x = 5, 3

Hence, the length of Jk can be either 10 or 26.

The complete questions are:

Quadrilateral JKMN is a rectangle, if NM= 8x - 14 and JK= x squared + 1, find JK.

Covert 3.92 into a mixed number in simplest from
Kobotan [32]
First, take three off it, because that will form the whole-number part:
3.92 = 3 + 0.92

Next, read off the place value of the last digit. The 2 is in the 'hundredths' column, which means that 0.92 = 92/100:
3.92 = 3 + 92/100

Finally, simplify 92/100 by dividing top and bottom by 4 to get 23/25. Then, shove it all together:
3.92 = 3 23/25

Answer:

  y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides marked with the same marking are congruent, so we have two equations:

  • 3x -y = 16
  • 2x +y = 9

Adding the equations gives ...

  5x = 25

  x = 5 . . . . . . divide by 5

Then the second equation tells us ...

  y = 9 -2x = 9 -2(5) = -1

The value of y is -1.

Write the equation for a parabola with a focus at (-8, -1) and a directrix at y = − 4.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

y = 1/6 x^2 + 8/3 x + 49/6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a parabola which opens upwards.

The distance of a point (x, y)  from the focus is

√[(x -  -8)^2  + (y - -1)^2] and

the distance of the point from the line y = -4

= y - -4

These distances are equal for a parabola so:

√[(x -  -8)^2  + (y - -1)^2] = y + 4

Squaring both sides:

(x + 8)^2 + (y + 1)^2  = (y + 4)^2

x^2 + 16x + 64 + y^2 + 2y + 1 = y^2 + 8y + 16

x^2 + 16x + 64 + 1 - 16 = 8y - 2y

6y = x^2 + 16x + 49

y = 1/6 x^2 + 8/3 x + 49/6 is the equation of the parabola.
