Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 17

x^2 + 2x = 17 - 1

x^2 + 2x = 16

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 16 + 1

(x + 1)(x + 1) = 17

(x + 1)^2 = 17

x + 1 = sqrt 17

x = -1 (+ - ) sqrt 17

x = -1 + sqrt 17 or x = -1 - sqrt 17 <===

If EFGH is a parallelogram, what is the value of x?
Vladimir [108]

Based on the property of the consecutive angles of a parallelogram, the value of x is calculated as: E. 37.

<h3>What are the Properties of the Angles of a Parallelogram?</h3>

In a parallelogram, the angles that are opposite to each other are congruent while consecutive angles are supplementary.

Angles F and G are consecutive angles and are therefore supplementary (have a sum of 180 degrees.)

Angle F + angle G = 180

4x - 2 + 34 = 180

4x + 32 = 180

4x = 180 - 32

4x = 148

x = 148/4

x = 37

Value of x is: E. 37.

Lexi is making an orange drink for party. She puts 4 pints of orange drink and 2 pints of water into a punch bowl. Her friend Ol
Nina [5.8K]
I think she can add 5p more of orange which is 9p and 6p more water which is 8p. I'm pretty sure this works because 9 is the next closest multiple of 3 and 8 is one number less than that. Hope this helps!
