AB = x + 8

Mathematics
1 answer:
vivado [14]4 years ago

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.

Which is the most appropriate unit of measurements to use to measure the thickness of a quarter?
denis-greek [22]
The best method to measure the thickness of a quarter is (C) Centimeters.

This is because the thickness of a quarter is very small and thus bigger units such as meters and kilometers will not be convenient. Centimeters is the best unit.

What do the differences between the points (as shown on the graph) represent?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

They represent the rise and run of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the x-axis of the points represents the "run" of the graph (or how much you should run along x-axis to get to the next point.)

The difference between the y-axis of of the points represents the "rise" of the graph (or how much you should rise up the y-xis to get to the next point).

The ratio of rise to run is the slope of the graph, which tells us  how many steps should we take on the y-axis for every step we move forward on the x-axis.

One number is 4 less than 3 times a second number. If 3 more than two times the first number is decreased by two times the secon
Natali5045456 [20]
The 1st number is x and the 2nd number is y:

x = 3y-4
3 + 2x - 2y = 11

The first equation says that x is equal to "3y - 4", so you can plug in "3y - 4" for x in the second equation:

3 + 2(3y - 4) - 2y = 11
3 + 6y - 8 - 2y = 11
-5 + 4y = 11
4y = 16
y = 4

Now that you have y, you can plug it into the 1st equation to get x:

x = 3y - 4
x = 3(4) - 4
x = 12 - 4
x = 8

So, the 1st number is 8 and the 2nd number is 4.

Anastasy [175]
The value of 7 in 67098 is 7000 and the value of 7 in 74702 is 70000 or 700 so it is either 10 times or 1/10th of the the value.
