Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the number is a

The expression for Ten less than 5 times the value of a number is given by

5a - 10

10 times the quantity of  12 more than one-fourth of the number.

a/4 is one-fourth  of number

12 more than one-fourth of the number

a/4 + 12

expression for  10 times the quantity of  12 more than one-fourth of the number. is given by

10(a/4 + 12) = 10a/4 + 12*10 = 2.5a + 120

Given that the above two expression are equal

equating them we have

5a - 10 = 2.5a + 120

adding 10 both sides

=>5a - 10+ 10  = 2.5a + 120 + 10

=> 5a = 2.5a + 130

subtracting 2.5a from both sides

=> 5a - 2.5a = 2.5a + 130 - 2.5a

=> 2.5a = 130

dividing both side by 2.5

=> a = 130/2.5 = 52

Thus, value of a is 52

7. Three vertices of a parallelogram are (0, 0), (−4,0) and (0, 5). Find all 3 possible coordinates for
kenny6666 [7]

The given vertices combine with the fourth vertex as follows;

a) Coordinates; (-4, 5)

Lengths of the sides; 4 and 5

b) Coordinates; (4, 5)

Lengths of the sides; 4 and √41

c) Coordinates; (-4, -5)

Lengths of the sides; 5 and √41

<h3>How can the vertex coordinates be found?</h3>

The given vertices are;

(0, 0): The origin

(-4, 0): 4 units to the left of the origin along the abscissa

(0, 5): 5 units above the origin, along the ordinate

a) The point that forms a rectangle is above the point (-4, 0) and to the left of the point (0, 5), which gives;

The coordinates of the point that forms a rectangle is the point (-4, 5)

The lengths of the sides are;

0 - (-4) = 4

5 - 0 = 5

b) The first parallelogram is formed by moving an equal distance of the point (-4, 0) from the origin from the point (0, 5), which gives;

  • The first parallelogram is formed by the point (4, 5)

The lengths of the sides are;

  • 4 - 0 = 4
  • √((5 - 0)^2 + (4 - 0)^2) = √41

c) The second parallelogram is formed by the moving an equal distance of the point (0, 5) from the origin from the point (-4, 0), which gives;

  • The second parallelogram is formed by the point (-4, -5)

The lengths of the sides are;

  • (5 - (-5)) = 5 and √41
