Answer:

  x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

You know z = x+4, so ...

  3z -x/2 = 37 . . . . . . . . the given relation

  3(x +4) -x/2 = 37 . . . . substituting for z

  5/2x +12 = 37 . . . . . . .eliminate parentheses and simplify

  5/2x = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/5

_____

<em>Check</em>

3z = 3·14 = 42

x/2 = 10/2 = 5

42 exceeds 5 by 37 . . . . true

ABCD is a parallelogram. If a CDA - 57 then BCD-_?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

57

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question that length CDA = 57.

Since the shape is a parallelogram, then we know that length AD=BC and AB=CD.

CDA = CD + AD

BCD = BC + CD

Since BC=AD and CD=CD

BCD = BC + CD is the same as CD + AD = CDA

Therefore BCD is the same length as CDA = 57

In other words, CDA is made up of a long side and a short side = 57

BCD is also made up of a long side and a short side, and since the longs sides are equal to each other and the short sides are also equal to each other in a parallelogram, BCD is the same length as CDA = 57.

Hope this helped!

Charles and Seth are building a ramp for Sasha and Samantha. The base of the triangle is 11ft and it's height is 5ft. How long i
Arlecino [84]

Answer: 12.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A ramp represents a right-angled triangle so Pythagorean formula can be used to find the diagonal length which will also be the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

Where:

c = hypotenuse

a = base

b = Height

c² = 11² + 5²

c² = 121 + 25

c² = 146

c = √146

c = 12.1 ft
