Answer:

A.  x = 5 (Equation below)

B. AC = 9 | BD = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Since we know the diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent, we know that the two bottom parts of the diagonal BD (2x - 8 and x - 4) are congruent to the diagonal AC (x + 2) . This means you can just equal them together and get the value of x:

2x - 8 + x - 4 = x + 2

3x - 12 = x + 2

3x = x + 14

2x = 14

x = 7

B. Just plug in 5 for x:

AC = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9

BD = 2x - 8 + x -4 = 3x - 12 = 21 - 12 = 9

Connor edits 34 <br> pages in 8 hours. Complete the table using equivalent ratios
makkiz [27]

If Connor edits 34 pages in 8 hours. Using the equivalent ratios, the table has been completed.

The equivalent ratios are the ratios that has same value when we compare them. We can check two or more ratios and check whether they are equivalent or not.

Connor edits 34 pages in 8 hours

Number of pages he edits in 8 hours = 34 pages

Number of pages he edits in 1 hour = 34/8 = 17/4 pages

Number of pages he edits in 12 hours = (17/4)×12

= 51 pages

Complete the table

Hence, if Connor edits 34 pages in 8 hours, using the equivalent ratios, the table has been completed

1. The variable y varies inversely with x and y = 6 when x = 3.
Y_Kistochka [10]
Inverse variation means y=k/x, we are given (3,6) so

6=k/3

k=18 so

y=18/x

y=18/27

y=2/3
