The value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D

<h3>How to determine the value</h3>

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as;

Perimeter = 2 ( length + width)

It is important to note that parallel sides of a rectangle are congruent, that is, they are equal.

Given the sides as;

  • AC = 5y + 6
  • BD = 8y-3

5y + 6 = 8y -3

collect like terms

5y - 8y = -3 - 6

-3y = -9

Make 'y' the subject

y = 3

Thus, the value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D

I don't know the answer because of how zoomed in it is. But, you could make a cordinate grid and plot all of the numbers. Then, you would connect all of the lines and you will see that one line is missing in the parallelogram. You finish off that line yourself and write down the cordanite that you needed to complete the parallelogram. You will lastly put U=answer (the cordanite you got from finishing off the parallelogram).
