5x +9= -29 and 5x = -20 Are they equivalent

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maslowich3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can try to simplify this by making sure the first equation has only the 5x on one side.

5x+9 =-29

Subtract 9 from both sides.

5x = -38

5x = -38 ≠ 5x = -20

They are not equal.

Find x and y so that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Result:

  • The value of x = 12
  • The value of y = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The parallelogram DEFG

DE = 6x-12

FG = 2x+36

EF = 4y

DG = 6y-42

We know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.  

As DE and FG are opposite sides, so

DE = FG

substituting DE = 6x-12 and FG = 2x+36 in the equation

6x-12 = 2x+36

6x-2x = 36+12

simplifying

4x = 48

dividing both sides by 4

4x/4 = 48/4

x = 12

Therefore,

The value of x = 12

Also, EF and DG are opposite sides, so

EF = DG

substituting EF = 4y and DG = 6y-42 in the equation

4y = 6y-42

switching sides

6y-42 = 4y

6y-4y = 42

2y = 42

dividing both sides by 2

2y/2 = 42/2

y = 21

Therefore,

The value of y = 21

Result:

  • The value of x = 12
  • The value of y = 21

Find the area of the figure shown. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

25.5in²

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is a convex quadrilateral. A trapezoid has at least on pair of parallel sides. the parallel sides are called bases while the non parallel sides are called legs

Characteristics of a trapezoid

It has 4 vertices and edges

If both pairs of its opposite sides of a trapezoid are parallel, it becomes a parallelogram

Area of a trapezoid = (1/2)  x (sum of the lengths of the parallel sides) x height

1/2 x (6 + 11) x 3 = 25.5 in²

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

Solve Equation<br> 1. 6 - 4x = 6x - 8x + 2
Helga [31]

Answer:

X=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6−4x=6x−8x+2

6+−4x=6x+−8x+2

−4x+6=(6x+−8x)+(2)(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+6=−2x+2

−4x+6=−2x+2

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−4x+6+2x=−2x+2+2x

−2x+6=2

Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−2x+6−6=2−6

−2x=−4

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x/−2=−4/−2

Step 5 :Answer

X=2
