Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

7/3 and 14/3 inches

Discussion:

Let P1 = "Piece 1" and "P2 = Piece 2", Then P2 = 2 * P1 and

P1 + P2 = 7       => as P2 = 2 P1

P1 + 2P1 = 7      =>

3P1 = 7             => divide both sides by 7

P1 = 7/3


Then P2 = 2 P1 - 2* (7/3) = 14/3

Thank you,

MrB

in quadrilateral ABCD, AE=x+10, and BE=3x-18. for what value of x is ABCD a rectangle? a.24 b.14 c.18 d.16
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

for x  = 14, the given ABCD is a RECTANGLE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : ABCD is  a quadrilateral.

E is the intersection points of the diagonal AC and BD.

AE  =  x+10, and BE=  3x -18

Now, as we know:

IN A RECTANGLES , DIAGONALS BISECT EACH OTHER.

⇒  E is the mid point of AC and BD respectively.

⇒ AE = BE

⇒ x+10 = 3 x - 18

or, 10 +  18 = 3 x - x

or, 2  x = 28

or, x  = 28/2 = 14   ⇒  x = 14

Hence, for x  = 14, the given ABCD is a RECTANGLE.

Which of the following ordered pairs is a possible solution to the equation y = -2/3x - 4
Karolina [17]

The ordered pair that is the possible solution for the equation is (-6,0) (0,-4).

<h3>What is the Slope-intercept form of a linear equation?</h3>

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation takes the form y= mx + b.

Here:

  • Slope = m
  • b = y-intercept

The function f(x) = y = \mathbf{-\dfrac{2}{3}x-4}

\mathbf{y = -\dfrac{2}{3}x-4}

The slope (m) = -2/3

The x-intercept is the value of x for which y = 0

  • x-intercept = (-6,0)

The y-intercept is the value of y for which x = 0

  • y-intercept = (0,-4)
