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.

Can someone answer this question and give an explanation
Temka [501]

Answer:

48cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you can break down this shape into two different, easier to work with shapes, with dimensions of 4*9 and 6*2. You can get this by cutting the bigger rectangle into the 4*9, and then using the 6*2 left over.

After that, all you need to do it multiply and then add.

4*9 is 36, and 6*2 is 12.

36+12=48

Hope this helped!

Need help with factoring, x squared minus 8x +15
wariber [46]

Answer:

(x-3)(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

X^2-8x+15

Break the expression into groups

(x^2-3x)+(-5x+15)

Factor out x from x^2-3x

Factor out -5 from -5x+15: -5(x-3)

=x(x-3)-5(x-3)

Factor out common term x-3

=(x-3)(x-5)

Thanks for letting me help!!

a chinchilla weighs 2 pounds its weight is 1/8 the weight of a koala write an expression and solve it to show how much the koala
Wittaler [7]
So you can say that the weight of a koala here can be x.

So x * 1/8 = 2

2 being the chinchilla's weight and the 1/8 coming from the fact that the chinchilla weighs 1/8 of the weight of the koala.

So you can just divide both sides by 1/8 first.

x * 1/8 = 2

/ 1/8       / 1/8

Or,

x *1/8 * 8/1 = 2 * 8/1

x = 16

So the koala weighs 16 pounds.
