Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) set up the variables
Let x represent the first number Then y will represent the second number.
b) What is the equation that represents the above situation?
c) Solve the equation.
<u>Substitute x in the second equation and solve for y:</u>
- x + y = 51
- 2y + y = 51
- 3y = 51
- y = 51/3
- y = 17
<u>Then find x</u>
Answer:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter of ABCD = 27 units
Scale factor = 1 / 3
Find:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D'
Computation:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[Perimeter of ABCD]
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[27]
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
Answer:
The Temperature in the afternoon was 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Temperature in the morning = 
Rise in temperature = 
We need to find the temperature in the afternoon.
Solution:
Now we know that;
temperature in the afternoon is equal to Temperature in the morning plus Rise in temperature in afternoon.
framing in equation form we get;
temperature in the afternoon = 
Hence the Temperature in the afternoon was .
In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other.
That being the case,
6x = 72
x = 12
AND
x-5 = y
72 -5 = 67
y=67
x = 72
and the diagonals measure
144 and 134
