Answer: The length of BC is 7
Step-by-step explanation: Assuming the lengths of the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are congruent, then
AB=DC and
AD=BC
Inputting the values of AB, DC and AD as given in the question:
x + 8 = 3x ...(1)
x + 3=? ...(2)
We have to solve for the value of x to get the actual lengths and thus ascertain BD.
From equation (1):
8 = 3x - x
8 = 2x
8/2 = x
Therefore, x = 4.
If x = 4 then equation(2) would be
4 + 3= 7.
Hence, the actual lengths of the quadrilateral are:
AB = 4 + 8. DC = 3(4)
=12. =12.
AD = 4 + 3. AD = BC
= 7. Therefore, BC = 7.
Hence, it is confirmed that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram since both the opposite sides are proven to be congruent.

25
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Let w represent the weight of the animal in pounds, and d the age in days. The problem statement tells us ...
... w = 75 +2d
We want to find d when w > 125.
... 75 +2d > 125 . . . . . substitute the above expression for w
... 2d > 50 . . . . . . . . . subtract 75
... d > 25 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
The animal will weigh more than 125 pounds when it is more than 25 days old.
Let's actually find the roots, using the quadratic formula:
<span>p(x)=x^2+x+3 gives us a=1, b=1 and c=3.
-1 plus or minus sqrt(1^2-4(1)(3))
Then x = -----------------------------------------------
2
The discriminant here is negative, so the roots x will be complex:
-1 plus or minus sqrt(-11) -1 plus or minus i*sqrt(11)
x = ---------------------------------- = -------------------------------------
2 2
These are irrational roots; they cannot be expressed as the ratios of integers.</span>
Answer:
x ≤ 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 red rose cost $ 18
x flowers cost $ 11x
"At most " means ≤.
11x + 18 ≤ 40
11x ≤ 40 - 18
11x ≤ 22
x ≤ 2
