Answer:

$y=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Parallelogram ABCD is a rectangle.

$AC=5y-2$ and $BD=4y+1$

To find: Value of y

Solution: It is given that ABCD is a rectangle, and we know that the opposite sides of a rectangle, and the diagonals of a rectangle are always equal.

As, AC and BD are the diagonals of the rectangle, both will be equal.

So, on equating AC and BD we have,

$AC=BD$

$5y-2=4y+1$

$5y-4y=1+2$

$y=3$

Hence, the value of y is 3.

Because diagonals of a parallelogram are equal, set both problems equal to one another. Solving, you should get y=3

What is the value of y? PLEASE EXPLAIN 8.5 = y/3 <------ Fraction

NISA [10]

Answer:

y=25.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find y, you need to get it by itself. Ask yourself, what is being done to y, then to undo that, do the opposite. For example, if 3 was added to y, you would need to subtract 3 to cancel out the 3. In this case, what is being done to y? It's being divided by 3. So, you multiply by 3 to cancel that out. Whatever you do to one side of an equation, you also have to do to the other. So,

8.5= $\frac{y}{3}$ Multiply both sides by 3

3(8.5) = 3( $\frac{y}{3}$ ) multiply on the left side, and on the right side the 3s cancel out

25.5=y

In parallelogram ABCD , diagonals AC¯¯¯¯¯ and BD¯¯¯¯¯ intersect at point E, BE=2x2−x , and DE=x2+6 .

kondaur [170]

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. So we just equate the two equations BE and DE 2x^2 - x = x^2 + 6 2x^2 - x - x^2 - 6 = 0 x^2 - x - 6 = 0 This is quadratic eqn. So we obtain. (x - 3) ( x + 2) = 0 Setting each to 0 and solving for x, we have that x = 3 and x = -2 So we have two possible values for BD. But Since BE = DE then we can simply double each If x = 3 BD = 2 (2(3)^2 - 3) = 2 ( 18 - 3) = 30 units If x = - 2 BD = 2((-2)^2 -3 ) = 2 (8 - 3) = 10 units

For your birthday, you want to take a group of friends to an indoor trampoline

butalik [34]

Answer:

For Skyhigh : 40 friends

For Jump it up : 90 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Maximum spending = $250

SKY HIGH FEES :

Party set up fee = $50 ; Amount paid per person = $2

JUMP IT UP FEES :

Party set up fee = $70 ; Amount paid per person = $2

THEREFORE, the inequality statement to obtain the number of friends for eack trampoline center goes thus:

Party setup fee + Number of persons * fee per person ≤ maximum spending

SKY HIGH:

50 + 5x ≤ 250

5x ≤ 250 - 50

5x ≤ 200

x ≤ 200/5

x ≤ 40

Hence,

Skyhigh can accommodate 90 friends Given the conditions

JUMP IT UP:

70 + 2x ≤ 250

2x ≤ 250 - 70

2x ≤ 180

x ≤ 180/2

x ≤ 90

Jump it up can accommodate up to 90 friends Given the conditions.
