Answer:

a=9

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (a-18)=-6

a−18=−6×( 3/2)

a−18=−6×3/2

a−18= −18/2

a−18=−9

a=−9+18  

a=9

Answer:

A=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation.

2/3(a−18)=−6

(2/3)(a)+(2/3)(−18)=−6(Distribute)

2/3a+-12=-6

2/3a-12=-6

Add 12 to both sides.

2/3a−12+12=−6+12

2/3a=6

Multiply both sides by 3/2

(3/2)* (2/3a)= (3/2)* (6)

A=9

Someone please help!!! It’s timed!

Answer:

a) x = 10

b) DA = 24

c) perimeter = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since it's a parallelogram, the opposite sides are of equal length. This means that line DC = AB, so u can substitute in the values and solve for x:

DC = AB

5x - 18 = 2x + 12           (move terms so that like terms are on the same side)

5x - 2x = 12 + 18           (simplify like terms)

3x = 30                         (divide by 3 on both sides to isolate the x)

x = 10

b) now that u know the value of x, you can use it to find the length of DA. again, opposite sides are equal, so DA = BC, which means DA = 3x - 6. substitute in your known value of x and solve:

3x - 6

= 3(10) - 6

= 30 - 6

= 24

Therefore, the length of DA - 24

c) Since u know the length of DA (and therefore BC), u just have to find the length of either DC or AB and then multiply that by 2 and add it.

First, substitute in the value of x for either DC or AB (i'm gonna use AB)

2x + 12

= 2(10) + 12

= 20+12

= 32

now, to find the perimeter use this formula: 2(AB) + 2(DA)

this equals to 2(32) + 2(24) = 64+46 = 110

and that's the perimeter!

hope this helps!
