Answer:
Width=10
Length=18
Step-by-step explanation:
The length is 2 feet less then twice the width
Let the width be x.
Then the length is 2x -2 based on the given information. Use this to make an equation since it is known that the area is 180feet squared.
x(2x-2)=180
2x^2 - 2x - 180 = 0
2( x^2 - x - 90) = 0
We now have a factorable quadratic.
2(x+9)(x-10)=0
So by zero product property, x=-9, x=10 Since a measure cannot be negative, -9 is an extraneous solution.
So x=10
Then the width is 10 and the length is 18
Hope this helps! Let me know if it is correct!
Answer:
9) JK = 24.5
10) LM = 24.5
11) m∡L = 51°
12) m∡M = 129°
Step-by-step explanation:
in a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add to 180 degrees) and are also congruent
so, ∡K = ∡M and ∡J = ∡L
since ∡'s L and M are adjacent we can add them and set them equal to 180
5z - 6 + 2z - 3 = 180
7z - 9 = 180
7z = 189
z = 27
therefore, m∡M = 5(27)-6 = 129 and m∡L = 180-129, or 51
Also in a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal; so KJ = LM and KL = JM
7x = 3x + 14
subtract 3x from each side to get:
4x = 14
x = 14/4 = 3.5
to find measure of JK, substitute 3.5 for 'x' to get (3.5)(7) = 24.5
to find measure of LM, substitute 3.5 for 'x' to get (3.5)(3)+14 = 24.5
34 divided by 14 is 2.42......
Then multiply it by 6 to get your Y.
that is what I think though, I may be wrong
