For given parallelogram, the value of x = 114° and y = 66°
<h3>Explanation: </h3>
<em>(Refer figure)</em>
Given quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
m∠A = 66°
m∠B = x°
m∠C = y°
m∠D = 114°
Since by properties of parallelogram, the both pairs of opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel.
Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent ...........................(1)
Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary ................(2)
Using (1) for given parallelogram ABCD; we get,
m∠B = m∠D
m∠A = m∠C
Therefore x = 114° and y = 66°.
Using (2) to check whether the two consecutive angles are supplementary.
( m∠A + m∠D ) = ( m∠B + m∠C ) = ( m∠C + m∠D ) = 66° + 114° = 180°

Step-by-step explanation:
Call the notebooks x, and the pencils y.
<span>3x + 4y = $8.50 and 5x + 8y = $14.50 </span>
<span>Then just solve as simultaneous equations: </span>
<span>3x + 4y = $8.50 </span>
<span>5x + 8y = $14.50 </span>
<span>5(3x + 4y = 8.5) </span>
<span>3(5x + 8y = 14.5) </span>
<span>15x + 20y = 42.5 </span>
<span>15x + 24y = 43.5 </span>
<span>Think: DASS (Different Add, Similar Subtract). 15x appears in both equations so subtract one equation from the other. Eassier to subtract (15x + 20y = 42.5) from (15x + 24y = 43.5) </span>
<span>(15x + 24y = 43.5) - (15x + 20y = 42.5) = (4y = 1) which means y = 0.25. </span>
<span>Then substitue into equation : </span>
<span>15x + 20y = 42.5 </span>
<span>15x + 5 + 42.5 </span>
<span>15x = 42.5 - 5 = 37.5 </span>
<span>15x = 37.5 </span>
<span>x = 2.5 </span>
<span>15x + 24y = 43.5 </span>
<span>15(2.5) + 24(0.25) </span>
<span>37.5 + 6 = 43.5 </span>
<span>So x (notebooks) are 2.5 ($2.50) each and y (pencils) are 0.25 ($0.25) each.</span>
Answer:
y=(-3/2)x - 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that x increases by 2 when y decreases by three
First we can find the y intercept
We need x to be zero for this
We can add 1 to x but then we will need to subtract 1.5 from y
x = 0
y = -0.5
Now we find the slope
SInce we know that y goes down three when x goes forward two we know the slope is -3
plug it all in and you get the equation
y=(-3/2)x - 0.5
