ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

148-13=135

4x+13= -  3.25

6x+2 = - 0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

1) SIMPLE SUBTRACTION

 148

-   13

---------

135

---------

2)

4x+13=0

4x= - 13

x= -13/4

x= - 3.25

3)

6x+2 = 0

6x= -2

x= -2/6

x = -0.33

The perimeter of a kite is 52 meters. If one side measures 19 meters find the measure of the opposite side.
Setler [38]

For any kite, we have two pairs of congruent adjacent sides. In general, the kite would have sides of x, x, y , y. In this case, x = 19 is known while y is unknown.

The four sides add up to 52, so

x+x+y+y = perimeter

19+19+y+y = 52

38+2y = 52

2y+38-38 = 52-38 .... subtract 38 from both sides

2y = 14

2y/2 = 14/2 ... divide both sides by 2

y = 7

Therefore the opposite side of the 19 meter side is 7 meters

<h3>Answer: B) 7 meters</h3>
