Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram, this one in particular:
KR = RM
JR = RL
We are looking in the end for the length of JR, but that means that we need to solve for x somehow to plug in the expression for JL, and then split that in half. Here's how we're going to go about it. I know that
KM = KR + RM, but since KR and RM are the same length, the equation becomes
KM = 2KR. Filling that in with the expressions I'm given for KM and KR:
3x - 5 = 2(x + 7) and
3x - 5 = 2x + 14 and
x = 19. Now I can find the length of JL:
JL = 4x - 10 so
JL = 4(19) - 10 and
JL = 66
Knowing that JR = RL and JL is 66 units long, JR = RL = 33 units each.
Answer:
3x - y = -28
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation y-4 = 3(x+8), distribute and simplify to get the Standard Form.
y-4 = 3(x+8)
y - 4 = 3x + 24
y = 3x + 28
-3x + y = 28
Standard form does not allow the coefficient of x to be negative so multiply the equation by -1.
3x - y = -28
Answer:
80%
Step-by-step explanation:
So you basically, just make it a ratio. Since a percentage is out of 100, just make the 5 into 100. To get 5 to 100, you times 20. Then you do the same thing to the 4 which you get 80.
I think you left out the word half. I am going to assume you meant half. If half the garden is planted with flowers, then you take away half of the area, which would be 36. that leaves you with 36sq.ft. that he has used to plant vegetables
