Figure ABCD is a parallelogram.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mandarinka [93]3 years ago

Answer:

AB = 10 units, and BC = 28 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Segments AB and DC are equal to each other, so we can set both equations equivalent to each other on opposite sides of an equation.

3y - 2 = y + 6

3y = y + 8

2y = 8

y = 4

Now we can plug in our y variable (4) into one of the segments equations; either AB's or DC's.

3y - 2

3(4) - 2

12 - 2

10

Segments AB and DC = 10

We can do the same thing with segments AD and BC.

2x - 4 = x + 12

2x = x +16

x = 16

Now we can plug in out x variable (16) into one of the segments equations; either AD's or BC's.

2x - 4

2(16) - 4

32 - 4

28

Thus, both segments AD and BC are 28 units long.

Our answer would be AB = 10 units, and BC = 28 units.

ΔQTR and ΔSTP are similar triangles. The corresponding sides of similar triangles are the same length.
TR = PT
TS = QT

Input the algebraic expression to make an equation system
PT = TR
y = 2x - 1 <em>(first equation)</em>

TS = QT
6x + 13 = 5y
6x - 5y = -13  <span><em>(second equation)</em>

</span>Using subtitution method, subtitute y with 2x - 1 from first equation into the second equation, to find the value of x
6x - 5y = -13
6x - 5(2x - 1) = 13
6x - 10x + 5 = 13
-4x + 5 = 13
-4x = 13 - 5
-4x = 8
  x = 8/-4
  x = -2

Find y with subtituting x with -2 in the first equation
y = 2x - 1
y = 2(-2) - 1
y = -4 - 1
y = -5

Answer:
x = -2
y = -5

Mr.Dow lives 16 miles from his workplace he drives to and from work five days a week if his car gets 19.2 miles per gallon how m
ANEK [815]

Answer:he would require 8.33 gallons of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr Dow lives 16 miles from his workplace he drives to and from work five days a week. It means that the distance that he drives everyday to and from work would be

16 × 2 = 32 miles.

Then, the total distance that he drives in a week to and from work would be

32 × 5 = 160 miles

if his car gets 19.2 miles per gallon, it means that the amount of gas that he would use in one week, commuting to and from work would be

160/19.2 = 8.33 gallons
