Mathematics

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = X + 8 ∠D = 2y +13 ∠C = 16 - x CB = 5y+4

In a parallelogram, consecutive angles are supplementary and opposite sides are equal.

Therefore for parallelogram ABCD, AB = CD, CB = AD

Since AD = CB (opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal):

x + 8 = 5y + 4

5y - x = 8 - 4

5y - x = 4             (1)

∠C + ∠D= 180° (consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary). Therefore:

16 - x + 2y + 13 = 180

2y - x + 29 = 180

2y - x = 180 -29

2y - x = 151             (2)

To find x and y, subtract equation 1 from equation 2:

3y = -147

y = -49

Put y = -49 in equation 2

2(-49) - x = 151

x = -98 - 151

x = -249

Rent-Me Rent-A-Car charges $25.00 per day plus $0.14 per mile to rent an economy car. Better Deal Rental Car charges $23.00 per
zalisa [80]

Answer:

The number of miles at which a car rented from either company cost the same amount is <u>50 miles</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of miles at which a car rented from either company cost the same amount. Therefore, we can have the following equation:

RC = 25 + 0.14x ....................... (1)

BC = 23 + 0.18x ...................... (2)

Where;

RC = Total cost of Rent-Me Rent-A-Car

BC = Total cost of Better Deal Rental Car

The the cost of the two companies equal where RC = BC. Therefore, we equate equations (1) and (2) and solve for x as follows:

25 + 0.14x = 23 + 0.18x

25 - 23 = 0.18x - 0.14x

2 = 0.04x

x = 2 / 0.04

x = 50

Therefore, the number of miles at which a car rented from either company cost the same amount is <u>50 miles</u>.

<u>Note:</u>

This can be confirmed for equations (1) and (2) individually by substituting for x = 50 as follows:

For equation (1):

RC = 25 + 0.14(50)

RC = 25 + 7

RC = 32

For equation (2):

BC = 23 + 0.18(50)

BC = 23 + 9

BC = 32

Therefore, RC = BC = 32 confirms the answer.

Find the value of y.
Phoenix [80]

\boxed{y=6\sqrt{3}}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

For a better understanding of the problem I've built up two triangles from the given triangular shape. So these two triangles are similar. Therefore, we can solve this problem by using ratios and corresponding sides in this way:

\frac{x}{3}=\frac{12}{x} \\ \\ x^2=36 \\ \\ x=\sqrt{36} \\ \\ x=6

But our goal is to find y. Let's call w the height of the small triangle, then:

w=\sqrt{6^2-3^2}=3\sqrt{3}

Applying the concept of ratios again:

\frac{y}{w}=\frac{x}{3} \\ \\ y=w \left(\frac{x}{3}\right) \\ \\ y=3\sqrt{3}\left(\frac{6}{3}\right) \\ \\ \boxed{y=6\sqrt{3}}

Find the value of x if mPYA 12x 20 and m LPLA 110O 220O 240O 20O 40
romanna [79]
M<PLA = 1/2 m PYA
110 = 1/2 (12x - 20)
12x - 20 = 220
12x = 220 + 20 = 240
x = 240 / 12 = 20
