Question

CDEF is a parallelogram. Solve for x. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

24 = 3x - 12 (opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)

24 + 12 = 3x

36 = 3x

36/3 = x

12 = x

Answer 2

Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel sides on a parallelogram are equal, therefore you must find a number that would satisfy the requirement for equality in the sides' length

So lets get started by finding out what number would be 24 after 12 has been subtracted from it.

24+12=36

Now we need to find out how to get 36 from 3x

36/3=13

13.

x is 13.

Now lets check that our answer is right

13x3=36

so far so good.

36-12=24

That checks out.

24=24.
