Answer:

The length of AC is either 10 units or 40 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that parallelogram ABCD and diagonals AC and BD intersect at point E.

According to the property of parallelogram, the diagonals are intersecting each other at their midpoint.

AE=CE

2x^2-3x=x^2+4

2x^2-3x-x^2-4=0

x^2-3x-4=0

x^2-4x+x-4=0

x(x-4)+1(x-4)=0

(x-4)(x+1)=0

By zero product property, equate each factor equal to 0. So the value of x is 4 and -1.

AC=2CE

AC=2(x^2+4)

Let he value of x=4.

AC=2(4^2+4)

AC=2(20)

AC=40

Therefore the length of AC is 40.

Let he value of x=-1.

AC=2((-1)^2+4)

AC=2(5)

AC=10

Therefore the length of AC is 10.

If the diagonals of the parallelogram intersect with each other, this means that the diagonals bisect each other. Thus,

    AE = CE

Substituting the equations,

  2x² - 3x = x² + 4

The values of x from the equation are equal to 4 and -1. 

  AE = 2(4)² - 3(4) = 20

Hence, AC is equal to 40. 

Answer: 40 units

-6d=-42 can you help me solve please
eduard

Given the equation :

-6d=-42

So, to find d , divide both sides by ( -6 )

So,

\begin{gathered} \frac{-6d}{-6}=\frac{-42}{-6} \\  \\ d=7 \end{gathered}

Note: when we divide two negative numbers, the result will be a positive number

Which operation results in a binomial? (3y ^ 6 + 4) (9y ^ 12 - 12y ^ 6 + 16)
AleksAgata [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression, (3y ^ 6 + 4)  (9y ^ {12} - 12y ^ 6 + 16), we want to know which sign placed in between the two polynomial will produce a binomial.

Using a plus (+) sign to check:

= (3y ^ 6 + 4) + (9y ^ {12} - 12y ^ 6 + 16)\\=  (3y ^ 6 + 4) + (9y ^ {12} - 12y ^ 6 + 16)\\collect \ like \ terms\\= 9y^{12} +3y^6 - 12y^6 + 16+ 4\\= 9y^{12} - 9y^6 + 20\\

From the gotten value, it can be seen that the resulting answer produces 3 terms, showing that it results in a trinomial instead of binomial.

Using a plus (-) sign to check:

= (3y ^ 6 + 4) - (9y ^ {12} - 12y ^ 6 + 16)\\=  3y ^ 6 + 4 - 9y ^ {12} + 12y ^ 6 - 16\\collect \ like \ terms\\= -9y^{12} +3y^6 +12y^6 + 4-16\\= -9y^{12} +15y^6 -12\\

From the gotten value, it can be seen that the resulting answer produces 3 terms, showing that it results in a trinomial instead of binomial.

<em>Hence none of the operations given results in a binomial</em>

In the standard (x, y) coordinate plane, what is the slope of the line joining the points (3,7) and (4,−8)?
rjkz [21]
We know that the slope formula is m = (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)
Your points are: (3, 7) and (4, -8)
In this case,
x1 = 3
x2 = 4
y1 = 7
y2 = -8
Now, just plug in the numbers:
m = (7 - -8)/(3-4)
m = 15/-1
m = -15
Your slope is -15.
