Answer:
Let X be the number.
Twice the number would be 2x
The difference between the two, would be subtraction, so you would subtract 4 from 2x
The equation becomes 2x-4 = 16
Now solve for x:
2x-4 = 16
Add 4 to each side:
2x = 20
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 20/2
x = 10
The number is 10.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, thus
DE = BE , substitute values
4y - 8 = y + 10 ( subtract y from both sides )
3y - 8 = 10 ( add 8 to both sides )
3y = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 6
Thus
BD = y + 10 + 4y - 8 = 5y + 2 = 5(6) + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32 → D
The answer to this question is B, 1/2.
