ABCD is a parallelogram. Segment AC = 4x + 10. Find the value of x and y.

Mathematics

valkas [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The values of x and y in the diagonals of the parallelogram are x=0 and y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ABCD is a parallelogram

And segment AC=4x+10

From the figure we have the diagonals AC=3x+y and BD=2x+y

By the property of parallelogram the diagonals are congruent

∴ we can equate the diagonals AC=BD

That is 3x+y=2x+y

3x+y-(2x+y)=2x+y-(2x+y)

3x+y-2x-y=2x+y-2x-y

x+0=0 ( by adding the like terms )

∴ x=0

Given that segment AC=4x+10

Substitute x=0  we have AC=4(0)+10

=0+10

=10

∴ AC=10

Now (3x+y)+(2x+y)=10

5x+2y=10

Substitute x=0, 5(0)+2y=10

2y=10

y=\frac{10}{2}

∴ y=5

∴ the values of x and y are x=0 and y=5

Answer:

arithmetic; common difference; 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first define arithmetic and geometric sequences:

<u>Arithmetic</u>:

Arithmetic sequences are made up of successive terms that share a common difference. In other words, if the sequence is, say: a, b, c, d, then we know that: d - c = c - b = b - a

<u>Geometric</u>:

Geometric sequences are made up of successive terms that share a common ratio. In other words, if the sequence is, say: e, f, g, h, then we know that:

h/g = g/f = f/e   (where the / denotes division)

Here, let's try applying the arithmetic sequence rule to the three terms:

2, 10, 18

18 - 10 = 8

10 - 2 = 8

Ah, we see that the common difference is indeed 8, so this is an arithmetic sequence.

Thus, the answer is: arithmetic; common difference; 8.

Six times a number is at least four less than eight times the number. If x represents the number, which will help find the numbe
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The inequation 6x ≥ 8x - 4 can be used to find the solution.

The solution is x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If x represents the number then six times a number is the multiplication of x by 6, and four less than eight times the number can be written as: 8x -4

6x ≥ 8x - 4

Solving the inequation;

Subtracting 6x each side:

0 ≥ 8x - 6x -4

Summing 4 each side

4 ≥ 2x

Dividing by 2 each side

2 ≥ x

2 greater or equal than x is the same as:

x ≤ 2

A dining set is priced at $785. If the sales tax is 7 percent, what is the cost to purchase the dining set? Round to the nearest
nalin [4]

Answer:

$839.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax = 7 % × cost

Sales tax = 0.07 × 785

Sales tax = $54.95

=====

Cost = price + sales tax

Cost = 785 + 54.95

Cost = $839.95

The cost to purchase is $839.95.
