These angles are corresponding angles, and we know that corresponding angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.

So,

8x - 12 = 6x + 8

=> 8x - 6x = 8 + 12

=> 2x = 20

=> x = 20/2

=> x = 10

So, the value of x is 10.

What is the length of the rectangle?

gregori [183]

Step-by-step explanation:

$area \: of \: rectangle \: = 60 \: {yards}^{2} \\ \therefore \: (w + 4) \times \: w = 60\\ \\ \therefore \: {w}^{2} + 4w -60 = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: {w}^{2} + 10w - 6w -60 = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: w({w} + 10) - 6(w + 10)= 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: ({w} + 10) (w- 6)= 0 \\ \therefore \: {w} + 10 = 0 \: or \: w- 6 = 0 \\ \therefore \: {w} = - 10 \: or \: w = 6 \\ \because \: sides \: of \: rectangle \: cant \: be \: negative \\ \therefore \: w \neq \: - 10 \\ \\ \therefore \: w = 6 \\ \\ \therefore \: w + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10 \\ \\ length \: of \: rectangle \: = 10 \: yards.$

The sum of two numbers is 85. twice one number plus four times the other is 218. find the numbers

Nina [5.8K]

X + y = 85
2x + 4y = 218
x = 85 - y
<span>2(85 - y) + 4y = 218 </span>
<span>170 - 2y + 4y = 218 </span>
<span>170 + 2y = 218 </span>
<span>2y = 48 </span>
<span>y = 24 </span>
<span>x = 61</span>
