Answer:

2x+59.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>J </em>represent Jessica's weight and <em>R</em> represent Ronda's weight.

Jessica weighs <em>x+34</em> pounds. Thus:

J=x+34

Ronda weighs 12 pounds less than Jessica. In other words:

R=J-12=(x+34)-12\\R=x+22

The sum of their weights, therefore, is:

J+R\\=(x+34)+(x+22)=2x+56

Now, if Jessica gains 5 pounds and Ronda loses 2 pounds, the net gain of the total weight would be 3 pounds. Thus, we only need to add 3 to the original total to find the sum of their new weights:

2x+56+3=2x+59

The sum of the new [weights] is represented by 2x+59.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

$55.36

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 = 0.6, so 4 3/5 = 4.6

2/5 = 0.4, so 6 2/5 = 6.4

(4 3/5)/$39.79 = (6 2/5)/x

4.6x = 6.4 × $39.79

x = $55.36

Someone please help me
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Option 3 or Option 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have this doubt because actually, a rhombus with a right angle (one) is not necessarily a square. Some rhombuses have one right angle and are still not squares. Now, if the four angles are right, it is a square, but this only says one.

On other hand, a parallelogram with congruent diagonals isn't a square necessarily either. Rectangles have congruent diagonals and are parallelograms.

In case you only can answer with one, I'll say is option 3, hope it helps!
