Answer: x=7 and AC = 44 unuts.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. (i)

Here in parallelogram ABCD , AC and Bd are diagonals intersecting at E.

BE = 2x + 2, BD = 5x – 3, and AE = 4x – 6

Using (i)

BE=\dfrac{BD}{2}\\\\2x+2=\dfrac{5x-3}{2}\\\\ 2(2x+2)=5x-3\\\\ 4x+4= 5x-3\\\\ 5x-4x=4+3\\\\ x= 7

Now , AE = 4(7)-6 = 28-6 = 22

AC =2 AE = 2 (22) =44 units.

Hence, x=7 and AC = 44 unuts.

There are 2 ways to do this. I'm going to do it the way that I think is most simple.

You have to find their LCM which is 40. Now times 40 to 1/4     v     and 7/10

The equation then becomes 10+40v=28

You simplify it:     40v=18

v= 9/20

Answer:

10 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Parking needs to be paid for but if all friends are going together, they need to only pay once for parking.

The amount spent on just tickets is therefore:

= 243.25 - 15.75

= $227.50.

If $227.50 was for tickets alone, the number of tickets they could buy is:

= Total amount left/ Price of tickets

= 227.50 / 22.75

= 10 people
