Answer:

solutions are

x=\frac{173}{7}

y=\frac{166}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

it is parallelogram

so, alternate angles must be equal

Since, it is parallelogram

so, sum of alternate  angles must be 180

we get

x+9+2y+2x+2y+2=180

we will get equation as

x+2y+2x+2y+11=180

3x+4y+11=180

3x+4y=169

we know that diagonal bisect angles

so, we get

2x=2y+2

now, we can solve for x

x=y+1

now, we can plug this into first equation

3(y+1)+4y=169

now, we can solve for y

7y+3=169

y=\frac{166}{7}

now, we can find x

x=\frac{166}{7}+1

x=\frac{173}{7}

So, solutions are

x=\frac{173}{7}

y=\frac{166}{7}

Answer:

x=11,y=10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

We can form an equation in x and y using this property.

2y+2=2x

and x+9=2y.

Solving the second  equation for x ,

x=2y-9.

Substituting x value in 2y+2=2x

2y+2=2(2y-9)

Or ,2y+2=4y-18.

Adding 18 both sides:

2y+20=4y.

Subtracting 2y both sides

20=2y.

Dividing both sides by 2:

y=10.

x=2y-9

x=2(10)-9 ( substituting y value)

x=20-9=11

x=11 and y=10 will make the figure a parallelogram.

first 8 secknds gives us the value of set 2.5l

2.5L to make 10 =
