m1=3, m2= 1
point A= (-5,4)
point B=(7,-2)
x=m1x2+m2x1/ m1+m2 , y=m1y2+m2y1 / m1+m2
x= 3×7 +1×-5/3+1 , y= 3×-2+1×4 / 3+1
x= 21-5/4, y= -6+4/4
x= 16/4, y= -2/4
x= 4, y= 0.5
your answer is 39.
First you would add 7 and 2 to get 9. From there you would get the equation 3x/9=13.
Then you would multiple by the reciprocal, or 9/1 to cancel out 3x/9.
Then u multiply 9×13 because what u do to one side you have to do to the other.
Your equation should now say 3x=117.
Finally divide by 3 to solve for x.
X=39.
Answer:
<u>The equation to find the length of each of the shorter sides of the parallelogram is 2x + 32.28 = 50.12 and the value of x is 8.92 inches.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:
Perimeter of the parallelogram = 50.12 inches
Length of the longer sides = 16.14 inches
Length of the shorter sides = x
2. Write an equation to find the length x of each of the shorter sides.
Perimeter of the parallelogram = 2 * Length of the longer sides + 2 * Length of the shorter sides
50.12 = 2 * 16.14 + 2 *x
2x + 32.28 = 50.12
2x = 50.12 - 32.28
2x = 17.84
x = 17.84/2
<u>x = 8.92</u>
<u>The equation to find the length of each of the shorter sides of the parallelogram is 2x + 32.28 = 50.12 and the value of x is 8.92 inches.</u>
