Answer:

If EFGH is an isosceles trapezoid,

EH=4x-27+

FG=x%2B9+

EG=3y%2B19

FH=11y-21

then EH=FG and EG=FH

set up equations:

4x-27=x%2B9 .......solve for x

4x-x=27%2B9

3x=36

x=36%2F3

3y%2B19=11y-21.......solve for y

11%2B19=11y-3y

30=8y

y=30%2F8

y=15%2F4

y=3.75

so,x=12 and y=3.75

you can also check the length of equal sides and equal diagonals:

EH=4%2A12-27+=21

FG=12%2B9+=21

EG=3%283.75%29%2B19=30.25

FH=11%283.75%29-21=30.25x=12

What 2 numbers multiply to be 108 but subtract to be 6

mel-nik [20]

No 2 numbers do this.

Possible numbers that can multiply to 108:

1 x 108 = 108
2 x 54 = 108
3 x 36 = 108
4 x 27 = 108
6 x 18 = 108
9 x 12 = 108
12 x 9 = 108
18 x 6 = 108
27 x 4 = 108
36 x 3 = 108
54 x 2 = 108
108 x 1 = 108

Possible numbers on that list that when subtracted equate to 6:

None
