The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so 17-x = 40-3x, and 24-x = x+1. let's start with the first pair: 17-x=40-3x. start by adding 3x to both sides to get 17+2x=40. then subtract 17 from both sides to get 2x = 23, so x = 11.5. so the length of these two sides is 17-11.5 and 40-3(11.5), which is 5.5. since 24-x=x+1, and we know x=11.5, then the length of these two sides (24-x and x+1) is 12.5. the perimeter of the quadrilateral is 5.5 + 5.5 + 12.5 + 12.5, which is 36.

Two circles have the same radius. Complete the description for whether the combined area of the two circles is the same as the a
Elodia [21]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

A = pi r^2

If they have the same radius they have the same area

A two circles = pi r^2 +pi r^2

                      = 2 pi r^2

If we double the radius

A = pi (2r)^2

   = pi 4r^2

The combined area of two circles is  1/2  the area as the area of a circle with twice the radius.

A boat costs $19,200 and decreases in value by 12% per year. How much will the boat be worth after 5 years?
zhannawk [14.2K]
<span>If it decreases by 12 percent, you do 19,200x.12 which is 2,304. You subtract that from 19,200 which is 16,896. You multiply that by .12 which is 2,027.52 and subtract that from 16,896 which is 14,868.42. You do that three more times and there's your answer.
