Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:
3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)
Solve for x
3x - 1 = 2x + 2
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 1 + 2
x = 3
Also:
5y + 1 = 6y - 1
Collect like terms
5y - 6y = -1 - 1
-y = -2
Divide both sides by -1
y = -2/-1
y = 2
Answer:
x < 6
Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 4 form both sides

Multiply both sides by 3

B is the correct answer.
We are adding the border of x thickness to all 4 sides of the table. This makes the new width of the table 36+x+x = 36+2x and the new length of the table 72+x+x=72+2x. To find the area, we multiply the length and width:
(36+2x)(72+2x) = 3006
Multiplying the binomials, we get:
36*72 + 36*2x + 2x*72 + 2x*2x = 3006
2592 + 72x + 144x + 4x² = 3006
Combining like terms gets us
2592 + 216x + 4x² = 3006
Subtract 3006 from both sides:
2592 + 216x + 4x² - 3006 = 3006 - 3006
-414 + 216x + 4x² = 0
Writing in standard form we have
4x²+216x-414=0
Answer:
the length of the thread remaining is 790 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
original length of the thread, L₀ = 10 m = 1000 cm
the length of the thread used, L₁ = 210 cm
The length of the thread remaining is calculated as follows;
ΔL = L₀ - L₁
ΔL = 1000 cm - 210 cm
ΔL = 790 cm
Therefore, the length of the thread remaining is 790 cm
