Answer:
x = 8
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that one of the properties of a parallelogram is that the diagonals bisect each other, which means they divide each other into equal segments.
Therefore,
LP = PN
x = y + 2 (eqn. 1)
PM = KP
2x - 8 = y + 10 (eqn. 2)
Substitute x = y + 2 into eqn. 2 to find y
Thus:
2(y + 2) = y + 10
2y + 4 = y + 10
Take like terms
2y - y = -4 + 10
y = 6
Substitute y = 6 into eqn. 1 to find x:
x = y + 2 (eqn. 1)
x = 6 + 2
x = 8

Answer:
1. 43/36
2. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 7/9 + 5/12
= LCM of 9 and 12 is 36
= 28/36 + 15/12
= (28 + 15) / 36
= 43/36
2. 21/24 - 3/8
= LCM of 24 and 8 is 24
= 21/24 - 9/24
= (21 - 9) / 24
= 12/24
= 1/2
X= 2.5 that is the correct answer

Answer:
13,475
Step-by-step explanation:
First hour
350 people at $17.50 per ticket
350* $17.50 =$6125
Second hour
We add 20% more
350+350*.20 =350+70 =420
There were 420 people at $17.50
420*$17.50 =$7350
Add the total for the 2 hours
6125+7350=13,475
