Find the value of x and y in the following figure where ABCD is a parallelogram​

Mathematics
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 3

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:

3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)

Solve for x

3x - 1 = 2x + 2

Collect like terms

3x - 2x = 1 + 2

x = 3

Also:

5y + 1 = 6y - 1

Collect like terms

5y - 6y = -1 - 1

-y = -2

Divide both sides by -1

y = -2/-1

y = 2

Do solve this you use PEMDAS. This stands for:
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Because there are no parentheses or exponents in this equation, we go straight to the division.

1) 8 divided by 4 equals two so we rewrite the equation. 5+6 x 2 - 2 + 7.

2) Next in order of pemdas is multiplication. Yes I know that in pemdas multiplication does come before division but it doesn’t matter in this problem which you do first. So now we do 6 x2 =12. We then rewrite the equation 5+12-2+7.

3) lastly, addition and subtraction are grouped together and you can just do it in order of the problem. So we do 5+12=17. 17-2=15. And 15+7=22.

So the final answer is: 22

The scale factor that Thea uses to go from Rectangle Q to Rectangle R is equal to 6.

<h3>What is the scale factor from rectangle Q to rectangle R?</h3>

In geometry, the scale factor is a ratio of the resulting length to the initial length. Since the area of the square is equal to the square of its side length, then the scale factor is equal to:

k² = A' / A

k = √(A' / A)

Where:

  • k - Scale factor
  • A' - Area of the rectangle R.
  • A - Area of the rectangle Q.

If we know that A = 2 and A' = 72, then the scale factor is:

k = √(72 / 2)

k = √36

k = 6

Then, the scale factor that Thea uses to go from Rectangle Q to Rectangle R is equal to 6.
