Answer:

X = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + 18 = 7 - (4x + 9)

first we simplify the parentheses.

distribute the invisible number one created by the negative sign in front of the parentheses to get -6x + 18 = 7 - 4x - 9

then simplify further by subtracting 9 from the right side, leaving you with

-6x + 18 = -2 - 4x

next, add 2 to both sides to isolate the variable.

-6x + 20 = -4x

then, to isolate the variable further add 6x to both sides.

20 = -4x

divide both sides by -4 to isolate the variable

-5 = x

so, x = -5

Examine parallelogram ABCD.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are parallel and also equal. The opposite angles are also equal.

In parallelogram ABCD, side AD is parallel to side BC. Also, side AB is opposite and parallel to side CD. This means that AB = CD

Sides CD and AB have lengths of y + 18 and 4y, respectively. Therefore,

y + 18 = 4y

Subtracting y from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

y + 18 - y = 4y - y

3y = 18

y = 18/3 = 6

Therefore, the length of AB is

AB = 4y = 4 × 6

AB = 24
