Parallelogram JKLM is shown. If KR=X+7, KM = 3x - 5. and JL = 4x - 10.
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, this one in particular:

KR = RM

JR = RL

We are looking in the end for the length of JR, but that means that we need to solve for x somehow to plug in the expression for JL, and then split that in half. Here's how we're going to go about it. I know that

KM = KR + RM, but since KR and RM are the same length, the equation becomes

KM = 2KR. Filling that in with the expressions I'm given for KM and KR:

3x - 5 = 2(x + 7) and

3x - 5 = 2x + 14 and

x = 19. Now I can find the length of JL:

JL = 4x - 10 so

JL = 4(19) - 10 and

JL = 66

Knowing that JR = RL and JL is 66 units long, JR = RL = 33 units each.

Your class is selling boxes of flowers as a fundraiser. The profit p depends on the amount x that your class charges for each bo
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$ 22.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Price charged for each box of seeds = x

Profit gained from from selling boxes of seeds = p

The equation of profit is modeled as

P(x) = 0.5x² + 36x - 179

As per given information if the fundraisers make a profit of  $379 then find the minimum price charged for each box of seed.

Now our above equation becomes

379 = -0.5x² + 36x - 179

Simplifying

379+179 = -0.5x² + 36x

558 = -0.5x² + 36x

0.5x² - 36x + 558 =0

multipying both sides of equation by 2

2(0.5x² - 36x + 558) = 2x0

x² - 72x +1116 = 0

Using quadratic formula we get the following factors

x= 49.4 or x= 22.60

As we can the smalles value is 22.6

So, they can charge 22.6 dollar for each bag of seeds in order to get profit of 379 dollars.

NOTE.- just substitute values and resolve
