In this problem, you have already shown the solution.
24 = 3y - 6 => 30 = 3y, y =10
12 = 5x + 2 => 10 = 5x , x = 2
And yes, basically parallel sides must have the same length
These are the answers:
for 17.) x = 2
y = 10
for 18.) mid segment = (side 1 + side 2) / 2 -->
19 = (24 + side2) / 2 -->
38 = 24 + side2,
thus, side 2 = 14 units
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
SST = ∑
(
y
−
¯
y
)
² (¯
y = mean of y values)
¯
y = (5+8+14)/3 = 27/3 = 9
∑
(
y
−
¯
y
)
² = (

−
9
)
² + (

)
² + (

−9
)
²
= ( −

² + ( −

² + (

²
= 16 + 1 + 25
= 42
Hope this helps bye bye thanks
U decreased by 17 is u-17.
if you decrease a number from something, you use subtraction.
therefore, u decreased by 17 is u-17
