Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 1)² = x² + (2x - 1)² = x² + (2x - 1)(2x - 1)

(2x + 1)(2x + 1) = x² + 4x²-2x-2x+1

4x²+2x+2x+1 = 5x²-4x+1

4x²+4x+1 = 5x²-4x+1

0= 5x²-4x²-4x-4x+1-1

0= x²-8x

x²-8x=0

x²=8x

x=8

Foure ABCD is a parallelogram<br> What is the value of x<br><br><br> please help
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The property of a parallelogram is the opposite sides are congruent, hence

AD = BC ← substitute values

5x + 3 = 38 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

5x = 35 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 7
