The value of the variable x is 3/4

<h3>What are congruent segments</h3>

Congruent segment are segments with equal or congruent lengths.

From the information given, we have that line AB is approximately equal to line BC. This is represented as;

AB = BC

Where;

  • AB = 4x + 7
  • BC = 20x - 7

Now, let's equate the expressions

4x + 7 = 20x - 5

collect like terms

4x - 20x = - 5 - 7

- 16x = - 12

Make 'x' the subject of formula

x = -12/-16

x = 3/4

Thus, the value of the variable x is 3/4

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent segments have the same length, so:

AB= BC \\ \\ 4x+7=20x-5 \\ \\ 12=16x \\ \\ x=3/4

Write 11•47 using the distributive property. Then simplify.
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Distributive property :

a (b+c) = ab + bc

Try writing 47 = 50-3  or 47 = 40+7.

11 x 47 = 11 x (50-3) = 11 x 50 - 11 x 3 = 550 - 33 =  517

or 

11 x 47 =  11 x (40+7) = 11 x 40 + 11 x 7 = 440 + 77 = 517

Parallelogram WXYZ is shown on the coordinate plane.
gogolik [260]

The reflection transformation of the given diagram means that; W' X' is parallel to Z' Y'

<h3>How to Interpret Transformation Reflection?</h3>

Reflection over y-axis is a reflection or flip over the y-axis where the y-axis is the line of reflection used. The formula for this is: (x,y) →(−x,y) ( x , y ) → ( − x , y ) .

To reflect an equation over the y-axis, simply multiply the input variable by -1: y=f(x)→y=f(−x) y = f ( x ) → y = f ( − x )

Thus, looking at the given image and applying the transformation rule above, we can say that the reflection of parallelogram WXYZ across the y-axis would mean that W' X' is parallel to Z' Y'
