The length of each of its parallel side are 30 cm and 40 cm.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Perimeter of parallelogram = 140 cm.
The one side of parallelogram = x cm.
The other side of parallelogram = x+10 cm.

Perimeter of a parallelogram = 2 (base+height)

⇒ 140 = 2(x+x+10)

⇒ 140 = 2(2x+10)

⇒ 140 = 4x+20

⇒ 4x = 120

⇒ x = 120/4

x = 30 cm

∴ The longer side = 30+10 = 40 cm

the mean average distance that jack runs in his last 10 runs is 5.7 miles. work out the distance that he would need to make this

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

mean is calculated as

mean = $\frac{sum}{count}$ , then

$\frac{sum}{10}$ = 5.7 ( multiply both sides by 10 )

sum = 57

let x be the distance he needs to cover so mean is 6 , that is

$\frac{sum+x}{11}$ = 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )

sum + x = 66 , that is

57 + x = 66 ( subtract 57 from both sides )

x = 9

That is he would have to run 9 miles
