Answer:

  31 units

Step-by-step explanation:

When the figure is a parallelogram, opposite sides have the same measure:

  AD = BC

  3x +7 = 5x -9 . . . . . . substitute given expressions

  16 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . add 9-3x

  8 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Use this value of x in the expression for AD to find its required length:

  AD = 3(8) +7 = 24 +7

  AD = 31 . . . . units

The length of segment AD must be 31 units for ABCD to be a parallelogram.

A nontoxic furniture polish can be made by combining vinegar and olive oil. The amount of oil should be three times the amount o
DENIUS [597]
To answer this question you will use ratios. The information given gives us a part to part ratio of 1 part vinegar for every 3 parts oil.

Because the total amount of furniture polish is 30 ounces, we will need to write one part vinegar to three parts oil as a part to part to whole ratio.

Use this information then and create an equivalent ratio with a total of 30 ounces. See below.

1 vinegar (x7.5) = 7.5 ounces
3 oil. (X7.5). = 22.5 ounces
4 total (x7.5). = 30 ounces

You will need 7.5 ounces of vinegar and a 22.5 ounces of oil.

Which of the following is the equation of the line that is parallel to y=35x+8 y = 3 5 x + 8 and goes through point (-10,4)?
xeze [42]

Slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b.

Where m= slope and b= y-intercept.

First step is to compare the given equation y=35x+8 with the above equation to get the value of m.

After comparing the two equations we will get m=35.

Slope of paralle lines always equal which means slope of a line which is parallel to the above line will also be 35.

Now the line is passing through (-10,4).

Point slope form of a line is :

y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )

Next step is to plug in m=35, x1=-10 and y1=4 in the above equation. So,

y-4=35(x-(-10)

y-4=35(x+10)

y-4=35x+350

y=35x+350+4

y=35x+354.

So, the equation of the line is y=35x+354.
