Rule: The diagonals of any parallelogram bisect each other. In other words, they cut each other in half.
This means DF is cut into two equal pieces: DH and HF.
Similarly, GE is cut into two equal pieces: GH and HE.
DH = HF
x+5 = 2y
x = 2y-5
GH = HE
4x-3 = 4y+1
4(x)-3 = 4y+1
4(2y-5)-3 = 4y+1 ... x has been replaced with 2y-5
8y-20-3 = 4y+1
8y-23 = 4y+1
8y-4y = 1+23
4y = 24
y = 6
If y = 6, then x is
x = 2y-5
x = 2(6)-5
x = 12-5
x = 7

Answers:
x = 7 and y = 6
Answer: 3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
This one is probably f(x)=2(4)
<span>Using the information we have
3x+4=40
Do the same to each side of the equation to eliminate for x.
3x+4=40 Minus 4 from each side
3x=40-4
3x=36
Divide 3 from each side
x=36/3
x=12
AC=3x+4
insert the value of x
3(12)+4=40
AC=40
AD=20</span>
