Answer : The value of side EG is, 24 units.

Step-by-step explanation :

Property of parallelogram:

The diagonals bisect each other and the opposite sides are equal to each other.

In the given parallelogram EFGH,

Given:

Side EJ = x^2-4

Side JG = 3x

According to the property of parallelogram,

Side EJ = Side JG

x^2-4=3x

x^2-3x-4=0

x^2-4x+1x-4=0

x(x-4)+1(x-4)=0

(x-4)(x+1)=0

(x-4) = 0  and  (x+1) = 0

x = 4  and x = -1

Now we have to determine the value of side EG.

Side EG = Side EJ + Side JG

Side EG = x^2-4+3x

Now put the value of x = 4, we get:

Side EG = (4)^2-4+3(4)=16-4+12=24

Now put the value of x = -1, we get:

Side EG = (-1)^2-4+3(-1)=1-4-3=-6

As we know that, the value of side can not be negative. So, the value of side EG will be, 24 units.

Hence, the value of side EG is, 24 units.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

As shown below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that when X denotes the errors in an experimental transmission channel, when checked by a certifier that detects missing pulses. follows the cumulative density function as given below:

F(x) = 0, 0

(a) P(X \leq  4) =F(4) = 0.9\\(b) P(X > 7)=1-F(8) = 0\\(c) P(X \leq  5)=F(6) = 0.9 \\(d) P(X> 4)=1-F(4)=1-0.9=0.1 \\(e) P(X \leq  2)=F(3) = 0.7

The total number of pears and oranges in a basket is between 30 and 40 . There are 25% more apple than orange how many apples ar
Verdich [7]

The number of apples there are in the basket as described in the task content is; 20 apples.

<h3>What is the number of apples there are in the basket?</h3>

Inference drawn from the task content show that;

  • The ratio of apples to oranges in the basket is; 5:4. making the total partitions be 9.

On this note, we must identify a number divisible by 9 between 30 and 40.

The number is 36 and once divided by 9 is 4 units per partition.

On this note, the total number of apples in the basket is; 4 × 5 = 20 apples.
