The rhombus is quadrilateral whose:

i) diagonals are perpendicular

AND

ii) lengths of all sides are equal.


So, by the definition of being a rhombus, |WX|=|XZ|

thus, 

4a+12=6a
12=2a
a=6


Answer: 6

Solve the system of equations 2r + 2s = 50 and 2r – s = 17.
WARRIOR [948]
Eq1) 2r+2s=50
eq2) 2r-s=17

solve for s in equation2 (eq2)

-s=17-2r
s=-17+2r
Substitute s into equation1 (eq1)
2r+2(-17+2r)=50
2r-34+4r=50
6r-34=50
6r=50+34
6r=84
r=14
Substitute into either equation and solve for s
2(14)-s=17
28-s=17
-s=17-28
-s=-11
s=11

The percentage when Potiphar woke up late is 14.4%.

<h3>How to calculate the percentage?</h3>

From the information, it was stated that Potiphar takes a horse and buggy to work everyday. In order to come on time, he must wake up promptly at 6.30am and then hop on the buggy and that anytime he wakes up late or the horse was in traffic, he will be late.

It was further illustrated based on the information given in the question that he was late 24.4% of the time and the horse was in traffic for 10% of the time.

Therefore, the percentage when he woke up late will be gotten by simply subtracting the percentages that we have above. This will be illustrated below:

= 24.4% - 10%

= 14.4%

Therefore, the percentage when Potiphar woke up late is 14.4%.

Gabriel is shipping a package of golf balls to his father for his birthday present. Each golf ball weighs 1.6 oz and the package
mestny [16]

Answer:

<h2>x represents the number of golf balls in the package</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the  function is  f(x)=1.6x+15,

we can see that the function corresponds to the equation of a straight line

that y=mx+c      

now comparing this function with the equation of a straight line

 f(x)=1.6x+15

  y=mx+c      

we can see that

x represents the number of golf balls in the package

15 is constant c which is the weight of the package used in the shipping

Suppose each cube in this right rectangular prism is a 1/2 -inch unit cube.
Nadusha1986 [10]
A. So dimension is like the length, width, and height. The length is 2 cm (4 cubes), the width is 2 and a half cm (5 cubes), and the height is 1 and a half cm (3 cubes).
b. To get the volume you have to multiply the length and width by the height. Which would be 4 cubes (length)× 3 cubes (height)= 12 cubes. Then 5 cubes (width)×3 cubes (height)= 15 cubes. After you do that you have to multiply the two answers (12 cubes×15 cubes). So the answer is 180. I think this is right and I hope it helps.
