<span>The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
So we just equate the two equations BE and DE
2x^2 - x = x^2 + 6
2x^2 - x - x^2 - 6 = 0
x^2 - x - 6 = 0
This is quadratic eqn. So we obtain.
(x - 3) ( x + 2) = 0
Setting each to 0 and solving for x, we have that x = 3 and x = -2
So we have two possible values for BD.
But Since BE = DE then we can simply double each
If x = 3 BD = 2 (2(3)^2 - 3) = 2 ( 18 - 3) = 30 units
If x = - 2 BD = 2((-2)^2 -3 ) = 2 (8 - 3) = 10 units</span>
Answer:
step 2
Step-by-step explanation:
from -8(a+6) to -80 - 48 is incorrect
when you multiply -8 x a it's -8a not -80
4×2=8 so n=2 and 8+12=20 so ?=12
Answer:
it could be the mean median
First, we need to find the area of the two rectangles in this picture. We know that area = l*w.
So for the larger rectangle, we know the l = 100 m, and the w = 60 m. Let us find the area:

So the larger rectangle area is 6000 m.
The smaller rectangle has dimensions that are 2 m less on every side. So we can recalculate these dimensions as l = 96 m and w = 56 m.
Let's find the area of the smaller rectangle:

So we know that the area of the smaller rectangle is 5,376 m.
The area of the jogging path is going to be the difference between these two rectangles. Let us solve:

So now we know that
the area of the jogging path is 
.
