Isosceles trapezoid ABCD has legs AB and CD, and base BC. If AB = 3y - 4, BC = 2y -3, and CD = 4y - 18, find the value of y.
1 answer:
Answer:
(6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is an isosceles trapezoid the length of the two legs (i.e. AB = 5y-10 and CD = 2y+8) are equal. In other words,
5y - 10 = 2 y + 8
Subtract 2y from each side:
5y - 2y - 10 = 8
Now add 10 to each side
5y - 2y - 10 + 10 = 8 + 10 =>
3y + 0 = 18 =>
3y = 18 =>
y = 6

hi lol I need to type 20 characters
answer it is right at right write L.C.M
(x^4)(3x^3-2)(4x^2+5x)
=(3x^7-2x^4)(4x^2+5x)
=12x^9+15x^8-8x^6-10x^5
answer: 12x^9+15x^8-8x^6-10x^5
they are the same so set them equal
3x-10=2x+40 now combine like terms
3x-2x=40+10
x=50
