Given that ABCD is a rhombus, what is the value of x?

Mathematics

Maslowich3 years ago

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that diagonals bisect angles of a rhombus, meaning that they split the angles of two equal parts, that opposite angles are equal, and that the angles of a quadrilateral, such as a rhombus, add up to 360 degrees.

Looking at the drawing I uploaded, and taking into account that diagonals bisect angles of a rhombus, we can say that angle x = y and z = 5x-18

Next, given that opposite angles are equal, we can say that angle B = angle D and angle A = angle C. Therefore,

A+B+C+D= 360 (as the angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360)

A + B + A + B = 360 (plugging in A for C and B for D)

2 ( A + B) = 360

A + B = 180

x + y + z + 5x - 18 = 180 (plugging x+y in for A, and z+5x-18 in for B, as x and y make up A and z and 5x-18 make up B)

x+x+5x-18+5x-18 = 180 (because x=y and z=5x-18)

2(x+5x-18) = 180

divide both sides by 2

x+5x-18=90

6x-18=90

add 18 to both sides

6x=108

divide both sides by 6

x = 18

fomenos

Answer: $ 1361.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount will be 1060 * 20% = 212

Sales price 1060 + 212 = 1272

Tax 7% = 89.04

Kelly paid 1272 + 89.04 = 1361.04

The points (x, 3) and (-2, 2) have a slope of 1. What is the x-coordinate of the point<br> (x, 3)?
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

(-1,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

1 = (2-3)/(-2-x)

Multiply each side by (-2-x)

(-2-x) = -1

Multiply by -1

2+x = 1

Subtract 2 from each side

2+x-2 = 1-2

x = -1

A remote-control airplane descends at a rate of 2 feet per second. After 3 seconds it is 67 feet above the ground. Write the equ
Anastaziya [24]
A] <span>A remote-control airplane descends at a rate of 2 feet per second. After 3 seconds it is 67 feet above the ground. 
the point slope equation will be given as follows:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where:
slope,m=2 ft/sec
(x1,y1)=(3,67)
thus plugging in the values in the formula, we obtain the point slope equation as follow:
y-67=2(x-3)

Answer:
</span>y-67=2(x-3)

b]The height of the plane after 8 seconds will be:
x=8 sec
but:
y-67=2(x-3)
substituting x=8 we get:
y-67=2(8-3)
y-67=2(5)
y=10+67
y=77
thus the height after 8 seconds is 77 ft

The multiplication table below can be used to find equivalent ratios.
Liula [17]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

3/24 = 3/3*8 = 1/8

24/32 = 4*6/4*8 = 6/8

32/24 = 4*8/4*6 = 8/6

24/3 = 3*8/3 = 8/1 = 8
