5 0

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the parallelogram with the lengths 5x, 3x + 1, 2y - 5 and y.

We need to determine the values of x and y.

<u>Values of x and y:</u>

We know the property that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.

Thus, we have;

5x=2y-5 ------- (1)

3x+1=y  ------- (2)

The value of x and y can be determined using the substitution method.

Substituting equation (2) in equation (1), we have;

5x=2(3x+1)-5

5x=6x+2-5

5x=6x-3

-x=-3

  x=3

Thus, the value of x is 3.

Substituting x = 3 in equation (2), we have;

3(3)+1=y

    9+1=y

         10=y

Thus, the value of y is 10.

you have 4500 cubic centimeters of wax. how many cylindrical candles can you make from the wax if each candle is 15 cm tall and
ira [324]
Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder to work out how much wax you need to make one candle.

π×5²×15 = 375π

Then divide the amount of wax you have by the amount of wax you need to produce one candle to work out how many candles you can make.

4500 ÷ 375π = 3.82

However, you can't produce 82% of a candle, so you have to round down to 3 candles.

The area of a rectangle A = I x w represented by the expression 24x^6y^15 which could be the dimensions of the rectangle
denis23 [38]
Area of rectangle is given by:
Area=length×width
given that the area of our rectangle is 24x^6y^15. To get the possible dimensions, we shall factorize the area of our rectangle:
(24x^6y^15)
=(6x^6) by (4y^15)
or
=(8x^6) by (3y^15)
or
=(12x^3x^5) by (2x^3y^10)

Answer:

(0,2) and (8,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller integer be 2n. The larger will be 2x+2.

ATQ. 2n(2n+2)+10=5(4n+2). Solving it, we get 2n=0 or 2n=8. The pairs are (0,2) and (8,10)
