Answer:

2,784 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

2900/100=29 (that is 1% of the 2900)

29*4=116 (that is 4% of 2900; how much weight they lost)

2900-116=2784 (current weight)

Help!!!!!! Find x and y so the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Conclusion:

  • The value of x = 7
  • The value of y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The parallelogram PQRS

We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

Therefore,

  • RT = TP

Given RT = x and TP = 5x-28, so

x = 5x-28

5x = x+28

5x-x = 28

4x = 28

divide boh sides by 4

4x/4 = 28/4

x = 7

Thus, the value of x = 7

Similarly,

QT = TS

Given QT = 5y and TS = 2y+12, so

5y = 2y+12

5y-2y = 12

3y = 12

divide both sides by 3

3y/3 = 12/3

y = 4

Thus, the value of y = 4

Conclusion:

  • The value of x = 7
  • The value of y = 4

A 20 foot ladder is resting against the side of the house the base of the latter is 4 feet away from the house approximately how
notka56 [123]

The ladder resting against the house forms a triangle similar to the one in the image below

To answer this question you must use Pythagorean theorem

a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}

a and b are the legs (the sides that form a perpendicular/right angle)

c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

In this case...

a = x

b = 4

c = 20

^^^Plug these numbers into the theorem

x^{2} +4^{2} =20^{2}

solve for x

x^{2} + 16 = 400

x^{2} = 384

x = 8√6

or

x ≈ 19.5959....

Hope this helped!
