Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Choice C    (6)

Discussion:

Since it is an isosceles trapezoid the length of the two legs (i.e.  AB = 5y-10 and CD = 2y+8) are equal.  In other words,

5y - 10 = 2 y + 8

Subtract 2y from each side:

5y - 2y - 10 = 8

Now add 10 to each side

5y - 2y - 10 + 10 = 8 + 10 =>

3y + 0 = 18 =>

3y = 18 =>

y = 6


Regards,  

MrB

Help me with geometry plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Natalija [7]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle's sum is 180 degrees, hence

6x + 10 + x + 17 + 4x - 34 = 180.

11x + 10 + 17 - 34 = 180

11x - 7 = 180

11x = 187

x = 17

hope this helps and is right!! p.s. i really need brainliest :)

Two automobiles start together from the same place and travel along the same route. The first averages 40 miles
natita [175]

Answer:

A. (55 x 5) - (40 x 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving how much miles (further along) would the second car be after 5 hours.

The first car averages 40 miles per hour. 5 hours later, it will have averaged about 200 miles in 5 hours (40 x 5 = 200).

The second car averages 55 miles per hour. 5 hours later, it will have averaged about 275 miles in 5 hours (55 x 5 = 275)

Subtract: 275 - 200 = 75

The second car would have averaged 75 more miles than the first car.
