In which question is r = -17 a solution?

asambeis [7]

Answer:

None

Step-by-step explanation:

For option A

3-2r/4=10 and combining like terms and re-arranging we obtain

-2r/4=10-3

-2r/4=7

r=7*4/-2=-14

For option B

3/4-2r=10 then combining like terms and re-arranging

-2r=10-3/4

-2r=9 1/4

r=(9 1/4)/-2=-4.625

For option C

3(r-4)=10 dividing both sides by three first

r-4=10/3

r=10/3+4= 7 1/3

For option D

3-r/4=10

-r/4=10-3

-r/4=7

r=7*-4=-28

Therefore, none of the options yields r=-17

Answer:

- Opposite angles are congruent (equal).

- Parallelograms have 4 sides

- Opposites sides are parallel and equal in length.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral and since quadrilaterals are fur sided figures, hence parallelograms are also four sided figures.

A parallelogram has its opposite side equal and parallel to each other with a slanting edge at two of its sides. Since its opposite sides are equal hence its opposite angles are also equal.

Parallelogram cannot have more than four sides because they are quadrilateral. Find the diagram of a parallelogram in the attached figure.

It can be seen from the attached figure that AB//CD and AD//BC
