Mathematics

Answer: The length of BC is 7

Step-by-step explanation: Assuming the lengths of the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are congruent, then

AB=DC and

AD=BC

Inputting the values of AB, DC and AD as given in the question:

x + 8 = 3x ...(1)

x + 3=? ...(2)

We have to solve for the value of x to get the actual lengths and thus ascertain BD.

From equation (1):

8 = 3x - x

8 = 2x

8/2 = x

Therefore, x = 4.

If x = 4 then equation(2) would be

4 + 3= 7.

Hence, the actual lengths of the quadrilateral are:

AB = 4 + 8. DC = 3(4)

=12. =12.

AD = 4 + 3. AD = BC

= 7. Therefore, BC = 7.

Hence, it is confirmed that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram since both the opposite sides are proven to be congruent.

The Capacity of a 1 cm cube is 1 mL. How many 1 cm ice cubes do you need to melt to fill a 1.5 L jar.
Svetach [21]

1500 ice cubes need to fill 1.5 L jar

Solution:

1 cm = 1 ml

Capacity of ice cube = 1 cm

                                   = 1 ml

Capacity of jar = 1.5 L

1 L = 1000 ml

1.5 L = 1.5 × 1000

       = 1500 ml

Capacity of jar = 1500 ml

$\text{Number of ice cubes} =\frac{\text{Capacity of ice cube}}{\text{Capacity of jar}}

                                $=\frac{1500}{1}

                                = 1500

Therefore 1500 ice cubes need to fill 1.5 L jar.
