Hey there! I’m happy to help!
We see that the two equal sides are longer than the base. This means that our a will be larger than b. The problem says that one of the longer sides is 6.3. Since the two longer sides are equal, that means that both longer sides are 6.3 cm. Therefore, we can simply subtract these two from the perimeter to find the shorter side, which is the base.
15.7-6.3-6.3=3.1
Therefore, the length of the base is 3.1 cm.
I hope that this helps!
Answer:
Conclusion:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Therefore,
Given RT = x and TP = 5x-28, so
x = 5x-28
5x = x+28
5x-x = 28
4x = 28
divide boh sides by 4
4x/4 = 28/4
x = 7
Thus, the value of x = 7
Similarly,
QT = TS
Given QT = 5y and TS = 2y+12, so
5y = 2y+12
5y-2y = 12
3y = 12
divide both sides by 3
3y/3 = 12/3
y = 4
Thus, the value of y = 4
Conclusion:
M-5-(-12) would equal m+7 because there is a negative before the parentheses and in the parentheses which means you would change it to a positive so, negative 5 plus positive 12 is 7 and since the 7 is positive you would add m (hope this helped)
