3. The length of the line segment is 16 units

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Considering the properties of quadrilateral, opposite sides are parallel and equal, we can find the value of n, using that n value we can find the value of segment GH.

As given in the problem, sides FG and EH are parallel and so they are equal.

So we can write, the next side EF and GH is also parallel,

EF = GH

4n-4 = 2n+ 6

Grouping the terms we will get ,

4n - 2n = 6+ 4

2n = 10

n = 10/2 = 5

So GH = 2(5) + 6 = 10+ 6 = 16 units.

Complete the equation for the standard form of the line that has an x-intercept of –4 and a y-intercept of 3
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The equation for the standard form of the line will be:

  • 3x + (-4y) = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • x-intercept = –4
  • y-intercept = 3

The equation of a line in standard form

  • Ax + By = C

where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers

We know the equation of a line in  slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

To calculate the slope, use the gradient formula

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

let  

(x₁, y₁) = (-4, 0)             ∵ x-intercept = (-4, 0)

(x₂, y₂) = (0, 3)              ∵ y-intercept = (0, 3)

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

    = (3 - 0) / (0 - (-4))

    = 3 / 4

Thus, the equation in slope-intercept form:

y = mx+b

y = 3/4x + 3

  • Writing in standard form

Multiply y = 3/4x + 3 by 4

4y = 3x + 12

3x-4y = -12

3x + (-4y) = -12

Thus, the equation for the standard form of the line will be:

  • 3x + (-4y) = -12

Mr.gilliam is 3 years younger than his wife.the sum of their ages is 95.how old is mr.gilliam
Usimov [2.4K]
X = the age of Mr. Gilliam
His wife is 3 years older, so the age of Mr. Gilliam's wife = x+3
The sum of their ages is 95.

x+x+3=95 \\&#10;2x+3=95 \\&#10;2x=95-3 \\&#10;2x=92 \\&#10;x=46

Mr. Gilliam is 46 years old.
