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

A straight line y = mx + c is parallel to y = 3x +2
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

m = 3 and c = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x + 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (1, 2) into the partial equation

2 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 3 = - 1

y = 3x - 1 ← equation of parallel line

with m = 3 and c = - 1

: Cho tam giác ABC vuông tại C, trong đó AC = 0,9m, BC = 1,2m. Tính các tỉ số lượng giác của góc B, từ đó suy ra các tỉ số lượng
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vì tam giác ABC vuông tại C nên ta áp dụng định lí pitago=> AB²=AC²+BC²=0.9²+1.5²=3.06=>AB= (3 căn bậc hai của 34)/10

sin B=AC/AB=(3 căn bậc hai của 34)/34

cos B=BC/AB

tan B= AC/BC

cot B= BC/AC

Tương tự suy ra tỉ số lượng giác góc A

olganol [36]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

They paid 111.75 for there months that means they minus 5.50 dollars every month which means a total of of 16.5 for three months. So you need use 111.75 plus the credit 16.5 dollars for three months 111.75+16.5=128.25 and than you divide them by 3 for three months so they pay 42.75 per month before the credit

What's the algebraic expression of "The greatest possible value of 3y is 30"
Gennadij [26K]
If 3y's greatest possible value is 30, that means 3y can't be greater than 30. So it has to be less than or equal to 30.
3y  \leq  30\\
y \leq 10
