Answer:

x = 26; l = 137; m = 137

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines are parallel, that means the measurements are too. As such, equal the two expressions together

5x + 7 = 8x - 71

add 71 to both sides

5x + 7 + 71 = 8x - 71 + 71

-71 and +71 cancel each other out

5x + 78 = 8x

subtract 5x from both sides

5x - 5x + 78 = 8x - 5x

5x - 5x cancels each other out

78 = 3x

divide both sides by 3

3x ÷ 3 = 1x which can also be written as just x

78 ÷ 3 = x

26 = x

plug in this x value into both expressions to find variables l and m

l:

5(26) + 7

130 + 7

137

m:

8(26) - 71

208 - 71

137

Sally is making bouquets of flowers with the ratio of red to white flowers being 2:3. If Sally used 12 red flowers, how many whi
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

18 white flowers

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given ratio:

Red : White

2 : 3

If Sally used 12 red flowers, how many white flowers will she use?

Let the number of white flowers Sally uses be represented by x

This is calculated as:

2/3 = 12/x

Cross Multiply

2 × x = 3 × 12

x = 3 × 12/2

x = 18 white flowers

Therefore, if Sally used 12 red flowers, the number of white flowers will she use is 18 white flowers.

Answer:

the answer is x=15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

here the above given figure is a rectangle ABCD with diagonals AC and BD measuring AC= (x+10)cm and BD=(3x-20) cm

Now,

AC=BD

or, 3x-20 = x+10 [ diagonals of a rectangle are equal]

or, 2x = 30

or, x= 15 cm
