Step-by-step explanation:

BC = AD (opposite sides in parallelogram is equal)

x + 8 = 2x + 1

8 - 1 = 2x - x

7 = x

x = 7

BC = x + 8 = 7 + 8 = 15

Caculate the slope between the points <br> (9, 12) and (4, 17)

Scilla [17]

To calculate the slope you need to do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). So you would get:
(17-12)/(4-9)
5/-5
=-1

The larger of two numbers is 7 times the smaller number. Three times the larger number is 7 more than 4 times the smaller number

Juliette [100K]

Let the smaller number be x.

Given, the larger number is 7 times the smaller number.

So, the larger number = 7x.

Given, 3 times the larger number is 7 more than 4 times the smaller number.

So we can write the equation as,

$3(7x) = 4(x)+7$

$3(7x) = 4x+7$

$21x = 4x+7$

Now we have to move 4x to the left side by subtracting 4x from both sides.

$21x-4x = 4x-4x+7$

$21x-4x = 7$

$17x = 7$

To get x, we will divide both sides by 17. We will get,

$\frac{17x}{17} = \frac{7}{17}$

$x = \frac{7}{17}$

So the smaller number = $\frac{7}{17}$

The larger number = $7(\frac{7}{17} )$ = $\frac{49}{17}$

So we have got the required numbers.

Smaller number = $\frac{7}{17}$ and larger number = $\frac{49}{17}$ .

Romashka [77]

Answer:

1 batch

Step-by-step explanation:

Farah needs 4 and 4/5 pounds of tomatoes & and additional 5 and 3/5 pounds of tomatoes to make soup.

4.8 + 5.6 = 10.5 pounds per soup

10.5*2 = 21 > 20 pounds

Farah would need one more pound of tomatoes in order to make 2 batches of soup. Therefore she can only make 1 batch.
