Answer:

The given quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram , then the opposite sides would be equal.

Here we are going to equate the length of  1 pair of opposite sides to find the value of x and use this value of x to verify whether the other pair of opposite sides are equal.

AB = 6x

BC = 3x

DC = x + 15

AD = 9  

Equate AB and CD,

6x = x + 15

5x = 15

x = 3

Now BC and DA should be equal.

BC = 3x = 9

Also DA = 9

As we can see, the other pair of opposite sides are also equal.

Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides are congruent.

Hence , the given quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: P=0.975^t


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the general form of the exponential decay formula is


y=A(1-r)^t, where y is final amount remaining after t time, A is the original amount and r is the rate of decay


Now, the ratio of strontium-90 remaining, p , as a function of years, t , since the nuclear accident. P=\frac{A(1-0.02)^t}{A}=\frac{(0.975)^t}{1}

Hence, the ratio of remaining since the nuclear accident is P=0.975^t

Multiply (6 − 7i)(3 − 6i).
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

-24 - 57i

Step-by-step explanation:

i'm assuming that this is a question about imaginary numbers and that i²= -1

we can expand the binomial by using the FOIL method (see attached)

(6 − 7i)(3 − 6i)

= (6)(3) + (6)(-6i) + (-7i)(3) + (-7i)(-6i)

=18 - 36i - 21i + 42i²   (recall that i²= -1)

= 18 - 57i + 42(-1)

= 18 - 57i - 42

= -24 - 57i
