The perimeter of a parallelogram EFGH is 48 in. If EF is 5 in les than EH, find the lengths of all four sides

1 answer:

8 0

Let the lengths of EH and FG = x
Let the lengths of EF and HG = x-5
Solve,
X + X + (X-5) + (X-5) = 48
4X - 10 = 48
4X = 58
X = 14.5
EH= 14.5
FG = 14.5
EF = 9.5
HG = 9.5

Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age. The sum of their ages is less than 32. Let x represent Alicia's age

horsena [70]

Ok, so amy is 8 years older than twice alica's age
if amy=y and alica=x
y=8+2x

and sum is less than 32
y+x<32

we can subsitute 8+2x for y in other equation
8+2x+x<32
8+3x<32
minus 8 both sides
3x<24
divide both sides by 3
x<8

the inequality is x<8
