A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. The correct option is A.
<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>
A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. Thus, a parallelogram is always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral can or cannot be a parallelogram.
For a parallelogram, the pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Therefore,
1.) For the first pair.
(x+8) = 15
x = 7
2.) For the second pair
(x+2)=(2x-5)
x + 2 = 2x - 5
2 + 5 = 2x - x
x = 7
(x+2) = (7+2) = 9
Since the measure of the pair of opposite sides is 15 units, the pair of the other two sides measure 9 units.
Hence, the correct option is A.

Haoyu, I'm telling Ms. Mak about your behavior. Expect not to see tomorrow, you were cheating on the math test. I will also contact your parents. Reply to me immidetly if you do not want to get exposed to everyone.
<em>Note:</em>
<em>Your first question is missing the y-intercept, so I am solving the 2nd question. You would still get your concept clear because the procedure to solve each of the questions is the same.</em>
Question 2
Answer:
The equation in the standard form is:
Please also check the attached graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the equation in the standard form is
Ax + By = C
where x and y are variables and A, B and C are constants
Given
To determine
- Write the equation in the standard form
We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation

where
In our case:
substituting m = -2/3 and y-intercept b = -4 in the slope-intercept of the line equation
y = mx+b
y = -2/3x + (-4)
y = -2/3x - 4
Writing the equation in the standard form
2/3x + y = -4
Therefore, the equation in the standard form is:
