Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Please refer the diagram I have attached.

As we are given, quadrilateral ABCD is square.

Means its diagonals will intersect each other at their mid point.

So,  AE =EC

5x-10=2x+5

5x-2x= 5+10

3x = 15

x = 5

It means AE = 5x-10 = 5(5)-10 = 25-10=15

AE = BE

So,

\frac{y}{3} = 15

y = 45

hence answer is 45.   :   Answer

Hope it will help :)

Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 15 positive even number
erica [24]
I conclude that the sum will be even because any even number can be represented by 2n where n is a whole number
and even numbers are 2 apart, so
the sum of the first 15 are
2n+2(n+1)+2(n+2) etc until we get to 2(n+14)
we can undistribute the 2 from all of them and get
2(n+n+1+n+2...n+14)
and we are sure that whatever is in the parenthasees is a whole number because whole+whole=whole
therefor, the sum is even

if you did want to find the sum then
an=2n
the 15th even number is 30
the first is 2
S15=15(2+30)/2=15(32)/2=15(16)=240
which is even
