Answer:

AB = 5

BC = 12

AC = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral and therefore, opposite sides are parallel and congruent to each other. Thus:

AB = CD = 12

AB = 12

BC = AD = 5

BC = 5

AC is a diagonal of the rectangle, use Pythagorean theorem to find it's length as follows:

AC² = AD² + CD²

Plug in the values

AC² = 5² + 12²

AC² = 169

AC = √169

AC = 13

(1) Snow fall in last week = $3 \frac{1}{2}$ inches

Snow fall in today= $5 \frac{3}{4}$ inches

Let us first change mixed fraction to improper fraction.

$\begin{aligned}&3 \frac{1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\\&5 \frac{3}{4}=\frac{23}{4}\end{aligned}$

Now, make the denominators same.

$3 \frac{1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}=\frac{7 \times 2}{2 \times 2}=\frac{14}{4}$ , $5 \frac{3}{4}=\frac{23}{4}$

Now, find the difference between 14/4 and 23/4.

$\frac{23}{4}-\frac{14}{4}=\frac{9}{4}=2 \frac{1}{4}$

So, compared to last week $2 \frac{1}{4}$ more inches of snow fell today.

(2) Given three times a number, minus nine, equals six times six, divided by four.

Let a number be X.

3X – 9 = 6 × 6/4

(3) To solve the equation:

3X – 9 = 6 × 6/4

3X – 9 = 36/4

3X – 9 = 9

3X = 18

X = 6
