Answer:

The value of x = 11  and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : parallelogram LMNO, MP = 21 m, LP = (y + 3) m, NP = (3y – 1) m, and OP = (2x – 1) m.

We have to find values of x and y.

Let P be the point of intersection of diagonals OM and LN.

In a parallelogram diagonal  bisects at right angles  and point of intersection divide diagonal in equal parts.

Thus, OP = MP and LP = PN

OP = MP , substitute the values, we get,

(2x-1) =  21

⇒ 2x = 22

⇒  x = 11

LP = PN , substitute the values, we get,

y + 3 = 3y -1

⇒  3y - y = 4

⇒  2y = 4

⇒ y = 2  

Thus, the value of x = 11  and y = 2

NeTakaya

\boxed{(r-s)(x)=-3x-1} \\ \\ \boxed{(r\cdot s)(x)=10x^2-5x} \\ \\ \boxed{(r+s)(-2)=-15}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In this exercise, we have the following functions:

r(x)=2x-1 \\ \\ s(x)=5x

And they are defined for all real numbers x. So we have to write the following expressions:

First expression:

(r-s)(x)

That is, we subtract s(x) from r(x):

(r-s)(x)=2x-1-5x \\ \\ Combine \ like \ terms: \\ \\ (r-s)(x)=(2x-5x)-1 \\ \\ \boxed{(r-s)(x)=-3x-1}

Second expression:

(r\cdot s)(x)

That is, we get the product of s(x) and r(x):

(r\cdot s)(x)=(2x-1)(5x) \\ \\ By \ distributive \ property: \\ \\ (r\cdot s)(x)=(2x)(5x)-(1)(5x) \\ \\ \boxed{(r\cdot s)(x)=10x^2-5x}

Third expression:

Here we need to evaluate:

(r+s)(-2)

First of all, we find the sum of functions r(x) and s(x):

(r+s)(x)=2x-1+5x \\ \\ Combine \ like \ terms: \\ \\ (r+s)(x)=(2x+5x)-1 \\ \\ (r+s)(x)=7x-1

Finally, substituting x = -2:

(r+s)(-2)=7(-2)-1 \\ \\ (r+s)(-2)=-14-1 \\ \\ \boxed{(r+s)(-2)=-15}
