Answer:

x=12\\y=\frac{13}{3}


Step-by-step explanation:

For it to be a parallelogram, opposite sides have to be of same length.

  • OL = NM, and
  • ON = LM

Using the expressions given, we can make 2 equations:

<u>Equation 1:</u>

OL=NM\\3y-6=x-5\\-x+3y=1


<u>Equation 2:</u>

ON=LM\\8x-8=7x+4\\


<em>Solving equation 2, we have x:</em>

8x-8=7x+4\\8x-7x=4+8\\x=12

<em>Plugging this value of x into equation 1, we can solve for y:</em>

-x+3y=1\\-(12)+3y=1\\-12+3y=1\\3y=13\\y=\frac{13}{3}

So,

x=12\\y=\frac{13}{3}

What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to the line
NeTakaya

Answer:

y = -x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope

y - 4 = (x - 6)

y - 4 = x - 6

y = x - 6 + 4

y = x - 2 (y = mx + C)

Slope m = 1

It is said that the line is perpendicular to a point ( -2, -2)

If two lines are perpendicular, their slope will be negative reciprocal

The negative reciprocal of slope = 1 is -1

Using a slope intercept form as requested by the question

y = mx + C

Inserting the values given

(-2, -2)

We are using point slope form

y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1)

x_1 = -2

y_1 = -2

m = -1

Insert the values

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

y + 2 = -1 ( x + 2)---- point slope form

But we are requested to give the answer in slope intercept form

y = mx + C

We have to open the bracket

y + 2 = -1(x + 2)

y + 2 = -x - 2

y = -x - 2 - 2

y = -x - 4 ( slope - intercept form)

The first term of an arithmetic sequence is 7 and the sixth term is 22. Find(a)the common difference;(2)(b)the twelfth term;(2)(
SVEN [57.7K]

d = 3 , a₁₂ = 40 and Sx_{100} = 7775

In an arithmetic sequence the nth term and sum to n terms are

<h3>• an = a₁ + (n-1)d</h3><h3>• S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]</h3><h3>where d is the common difference</h3><h3>a₆ = a₁ + 5d = 22 ⇒ 7 + 5d = 22 ⇒ 5d = 15 ⇔ d = 3</h3><h3>a₁₂ = 7 + 11d = 7 +( 11× 3) = 7 + 33 = 40</h3><h3>S₁₀₀ = \frac{50}{2}[(2×7) +(99×3)</h3><h3>       = 25(14 + 297) = 25(311)= 7775</h3>

I need to know ASAP! Thanks ^^
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

PQ=30

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that the segment has 3 parts that are 3:1:1 and sum up to 50, you could find how much 1 would equal by finding the total in relation to the ratio (doing 3+1+1) which gets you 5 parts. Then you can divide the total (50) by 5 to figure out how much one part would equal (10). Now, since you know that 1 part is equal to 10 and that PQ is 3 parts, you can find that PQ is equal to 3x10, or 30.
