Answer:

Yes, the diagonals could be 6 and 7 in. In a parallelogram, only the opposite sides of the parallelogram are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other, so you can set the labeled segments equal to one another and then solve for . \displaystyle 20 - 3x = 2x - 4 \rightarrow 24 = 5x \rightarrow 4.8 = x. Then, substitute 4.8 for in each labeled segment to get a total of 11.2 for the diagonal length.

Determine the first five iterates of f(x)=1.5x(1-x) for x0=0.8

kherson [118]

<span>f(x) = 1.5 x (1 - x)
f(0.8) = 1.5(0.8)(1 - 0.8) = 0.24
f(0.24) = 1.5(0.24)(1 - 0.24) ~= 0.274
f(0.274) = 1.5(0.274)(1 - 0.274) ~= 0.298
f(0.298) = 1.5(0.298)(1 - 0.298) ~= 0.314
f(0.314) = 1.5(0.314)(1 - 0.314) ~= 0.323

</span>So the answer is D : 0.24, 0.274, 0.298, 0.314, 0.323

-12x +8y=-32 in slope-intercept form

Tatiana [17]

The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

$-12x+8y=-32\qquad|\text{add 12x to both sides}\\\\8y=12x-32\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 8}\\\\y=\dfrac{12}{8}x-\dfrac{32}{8}\\\\\boxed{y=\dfrac{3}{2}x-4}$
