Answer:

B. A quadrilateral with 2 pairs of equal length

Step-by-step explanation:

analyzing the options:

  • A. A polygon is a very general definition (polygon is a figure with 3 or more sides) so it does not specifically describe a rhombus.
  • B. This option is much more specific to a rhombus than the other two options because it mentions that it is a quadrilateral so it reduces the generality of calling it a polygon, and it also mentions that there are 2 pairs of equal sides which is true for the rhombus (the top and bottom sides are equal, and the sides are also equal). So this option is correct.
  • C. It is a little more specific than option A because it mentions that you must have 4 sides, but it is not as specific for the rhombus as option B

Answer:

B.a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of equal length

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides in length. A quadrilateral is a closed figure or shape with 4 sides . Other quadrilaterals are parallelograms, square and rectangle .

Opposite sides of a rhombus are parallel and opposite angles are equal. The diagonals meet at the center to form a right angle. The best description of a rhombus among the option is that it is a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of equal length.  

Note polygon is too broad to be used to describe a rhombus .Moreover rhombus is not a regular polygon since all the angles are not equal.

Which steps could be part of the process in algebraically solving the system of equations, y + 5x = x2 + 10 and y = 4x – 10? Sel
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

That would be :

 4x – 10 = x2 – 5x + 10  ( y = 4x - 10 is substitute for y)

 PROOF:        y + 5x = x² + 10

                     (4x - 10) + 5x = x² + 10

                      4x - 10  =  x² -5x + 10

    0 = x2 – 9x + 20  (liked terms are grouped and simplified)

PROOF:      4x - 10  =  x² -5x + 10

                   4x = x² -5x + 10 + 10

                    0  = x² -5x -4x + 20

                    0  = x² - 9x + 20

Solving:

             x² - 9x + 20 = 0 

             x² - 5x - 4x + 20 = 0

             (x - 5) (x - 4)  = 0

          ⇒ x = 4  (as question says) OR x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:
