Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal. I am assuming J as the diagonal.

EJ = JG

=> 6x + 3 = 10x - 5

=> 6x - 10x = -5 - 3

=> -4x = -8

=> x = -8/-4

=> x = 2

Now,

EG = 2EJ

EG = 2(6 × 2 + 3)

EG = 2(12 + 5)

EG = 2(15)

EG = 30

Answer:

  • D. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems J is the intersection of diagonals.

We know diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other.

<u>It gives us:</u>

  • EG = EJ + JG and
  • EJ  = JG

<u>Substitute and solve for x:</u>

  • 6x + 3 = 10x - 5
  • 10x - 6x = 3 + 5
  • 4x = 8
  • x = 2

<u>Find the value of EJ:</u>

  • EJ = 6*2 + 3 = 15

<u>Find the value of EG:</u>

  • EG = 2*EJ = 2*15 = 30

Correct choice is D

What is the measurement for the diameter of a circle with a circumference of 88 ft?
masha68 [24]

Answer: 617 ft.

Step-by-step explanation: So first, the formula is A=C²/ 4π, knowing this, let's just plug in our numbers

A = C² /  4 · π

A = 88² /  4 · 3.14

A = 7744 /  4 · 3.14

A = 7744 /  12.56

A = 7744 /  12.56

A = 616.56

A ≈ 617

Hope this helps :)
