Answer:

<em>y = 6</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parallelogram ABCD with diagonals AC and BD.

Kindly refer to the diagram attached for the given parallelogram.

AE=2x\\BE=y+10\\CE=x+2\\DE=4y-8

To find:

The value of y = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us consider a property of parallelogram and its diagonals.

The intersecting point of diagonals of a parallelogram bisect the diagonals in two equal parts.

Let us consider the given parallelogram ABCD which has its diagonals BD and AC intersecting at point E.

As per the property stated above:

<em>AE = CE </em>and

<em>DE = BE</em>

Putting the values of AE, CE, DE and BE as given in the question statement and solving for x and y:

2x = x+2\\\Rightarrow \bold{x = 2}

and

y+10=4y-8\\\Rightarrow 4y-y = 10+8\\\Rightarrow 3y=18\\\Rightarrow y =\dfrac{18}{3}\\\Rightarrow \bold{y= 6}

So, the answer is:

<em>y = 6</em>

When lava is expelled from a volcano, it temperature may vary from 700 degrees Celsius to 1200 degrees Celsius. Write an absolut
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Ix - 950°C I ≤ 250°C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the temperature may vary from 700 degrees Celsius to 1200 degrees Celsius.

And that this temperature is x.

This means that the minimum value of x is 700°C while maximum of x is 1200 °C

Let's find the average of the two temperature limits given:

x_avg = (700 + 1200)/2 =

x_avg = 1900/2

x_avg = 950 °C

Now let's find the distance between the average and either maximum or minimum.

d_avg = (1200 - 700)/2

d_avg = 500/2

d_avg = 250°C.

Now absolute value equation will be in the form of;

Ix - x_avgI ≤ d_avg

Thus;

Ix - 950°C I ≤ 250°C

Can someone help me with this algebra question? I don’t get it :( and I’m not tryna fail
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if f(x)=3x-1 and g(x)=2x+5 then

f(x)-g(x)=3x-1-(2x+5)

f(x)-g(x)=3x-1-2x-5

f(x)-g(x)=x-6
