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 robot can complete 8 tasks in ⅚ hour. Each task takes the same amount of time. How long does it take the robot to complete one
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

1 task = 6.25 minutes

The robot can complete 9.6 task in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of task = 8

Time taken = 5/6 of 1 hour

5/8 of 1 hour = 5/6 × 60 minutes

= 300/6

= 50 minutes

8 task takes 50 minutes

1 task = 50 minutes / 8 task

= 6.25 minutes

1 task = 6.25 minutes

x task = 60 minutes

1 : 6.25 = x : 60

1/6.25 = x / 60

1*60 = 6.25*x

60 = 6.25x

x = 60/6.25

= 9.6

x= 9.6

The robot can complete 9.6 task in 1 hour
