<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.

The height of the tunnel at the center is 54 ft, and the vertical clearance must be 18 ft at a point 8 ft from the center. Find
IrinaVladis [17]

the standard form for a horizontal ellipse is

X^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1

Substitute 54 for b and and use (8,18) as the

point to find a

x=8

y=18

8^2/a^2 + 18^2/54^2 =1

64/a^2 +  324/2916 = 1

324/2916 reduces to 1/9

64/a^2 + 1/9 = 1

64/a^2= 1-1/9

64/a^2 = 8/9

64*9/8 = a^2

576/8 = 72

A^2 = 72

A = square root(72) = 8.485

 So formula

would be x^2/72 + y^2/2916 =1
