In kite ABCD, AB = BC and CD = DA. AB = (3x + 4), BC = x + 8, CD = y + 7, and DA = 2y + 5, find the perimeter of the kite

lana [24]

3x + 4 = x+ 8 > 3x - x = 2x > 2x + 4 = 8 > 8 - 4 = 4 > 2x / 2 crosses out > 4 / 2 = 2 > x=2
2y + 5 = y + 7 > 2y - y = y > y+ 5 = 7 > 7-5= 2 > y=2

the perimeter of the kite is 4

Answer:

5/V2=2.5×V2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an isoscelle right triangle:

x²+x²=5²

2x²=5²

x=5/V2=5×V2/2=2.5×V2

where V2=sqrt(2)

The difference between two numbers is 15. If 8 is added to twice the greater number, the result is 4 less than 3 times the lesse

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the greater number and $y$ be the smaller number. We know that their difference is 15, so we have

$x-y=15$

Then, we have the following information: if we add twice the greater (2x) and 8 (2x+8), the result is 3 times the lesser (3y) minus four (3y-4). So, we have

$2x+8 = 3y-4 \iff 2x-3y = -12$
