Answer:

<h2>x = 3, y = 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

The diagonals of the parallelogram are divided in half.

Therefore

EK ≅ KG and HK ≅ KF.

We have

EK = 7x + 5, KG = 3x + 17, HK = 3y - 11 and KF = y + 5

Equations:

(1)   7x + 5 = 3x + 17

(2) 3y - 11 = y + 5

Solutions:

(1)

7x + 5 = 3x + 17       <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

7x + 5 - 5 = 3x + 17 - 5

7x = 3x + 12       <em>subtract 3x from both sides</em>

7x - 3x = 3x - 3x + 12

4x = 12           <em>divide both sides by 4</em>

4x/4 = 12/4

x = 3

------------------------------

(2)

3y - 11 = y + 5                <em>add 11 to both sides</em>

3y - 11 + 11 = y + 5 + 11

3y = y + 16         <em>subtract y from both sides</em>

3y - y = y - y + 16

2y = 16           <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

2y/2 = 16/2

y = 8

14 divided by 3 you would get 4 2/3 but since all the bags have to have the same amount it should be 4

Hope this helps!

Please help I don’t wanna add a bunch of points Bc nobody is helping me I’m just wasting them.

Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.

x/6 = 5/1.25

let the height of building be h ft

h/6 = 60/15

h = 6(60/15) = 24

the building is 24 ft high

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)

The rent for an apartment is represented by R(a) = 2.00a + 50.00, where a is the area of the apartment in square feet. The rent
QveST [7]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is:  D)  S(a) = 2.00a + 100.00; shift 50 units up</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The rent for an apartment is represented by  R(a) = 2.00a + 50.00

Now, the rent increases by $50.00 when the apartment is furnished. So, the rent of a furnished apartment will be:  (2.00a+50.00+50.00) = (2.00a+100.00) dollar

Thus the new function will be:   S(a)= 2.00a+100.00

<u>As the output of the original function is increased by 50.00, so the graph of the original function will shift 50 units upward</u>.
