Well, you see the yellow colored "face" Think of it as area. So we got a smaller square next to it right...just ignore it and look at the yellow square. So, how do you find the area? Length times width right? So, since this cube has 4 inches all over it, what do you think you have to do if a square has equal sides/measurements. You multiply 4*4, which is 16! NOTE: It is NOT asking for volume! Hope this helps!

Write the equation in standard form. 8−5y=−2x

MrMuchimi

bearing in mind that

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

8 - 5y = - 2x

2x - 5y = - 8

Find the length of dm in the given fig.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$DM=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

(Let the point where the altitude from $D$ intersects $AB$ be called as point $E$ .) First, let's find the area of parallelogram $ABCD$ . The area of a parallelogram is simply $b*h=bh$ , where $b$ is the parallelogram's base and $h$ is the parallelogram's height. If we let $AB$ and $DE$ be the base and height respectively, since we are already given their lengths, we know that the area of parallelogram $ABCD$ will be $AB*DE=15*8=120$ .

Now, how does this information matter, you might ask? Well, we can take either $AB$ or $CB$ to be the base and either $DE$ or $DM$ to be the height. In this case, let's take the latter two options, as we are looking to find the length of $DM$ .

Therefore, we know that the area of parallelogram $ABCD$ can also be found by calculating $CB*DM$ . Since we know the values of the area and $CB$ , we can write the following equation to solve for $DM$ :
