If your choices are the following:
A. OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. FourE. Five
Then the answer would be letter D. Four.
Answer: QE = 10
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, it's important to understand that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
This means that E is the midpoint of diagonal SQ.
So we can setup the equation x² + 9x = 4x + 6.
To solve this polynomial equation, set it equal to zero first.
So we have x² + 5x - 6 = 0 and we get (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0
when we factor the left side of the equation.
So this means that x = -6 or x = 1.
However, -6 will give us a negative length when we plug it in
to find QE so this will not work.
However, plugging 1 in will give us 10 as a length so QE = 10.
Answer:
b=(-10-a)/4
First factor out the common number:3
Then divide both sides by 3
Then simplify 30/3 to 10
Then subtract a to get your answer
You would multiply 1.8 × 48 to find your answer.

86.4
So the cyclist travels 86.4 km
