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

A car initially traveling at 20 kilometers per hour takes 10 seconds to speed up to 70 km/hour. At what rate is it changing spee

Snezhnost [94]

Initial velocity=u=20km/h
Final velocity=v=70km/h
Time=10s=t

Convert speeds to m/s

$\\ \rm\longmapsto u=20\times\dfrac{5}{18}=5.05m/s$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto v=70\times \dfrac{5}{18}=19.4m/s$

$\boxed{\sf Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{19.4-5.05}{10}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Acceleration=\dfrac{14.3}{10}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto Acceleration=143m/s^2$
