Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

AB and DC are parallel to each other, so they are the same length. Set their lengths equal to each other and solve for x

4x = 7x - 9

4x - 7x = 7x - 7x -9

-3x = -9

-3x/-3 = -9/-3

x = 3

Now solve for AB.

AB = 4x

AB = 4(3)

AB = 12

Blank 1: Given

Blank 2 : AD is parallel to BC

Blank 3: <3≅<2

Blank 4: Transitive property of convergence

Blank 5: Definition of Bisect

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to fill in the blanks from the given options.

Blank 1:

ABCD is a parallelogram

This is given

So, blank 1: Given

Blank 2:

A parallelogram have parallel sides i.e in the given parallelogram AD is parallel to BC and AB is parallel to DC

So, Blank 2 : AD is parallel to BC

Blank 3:

We are given <3≅<2

So, Blank 3: <3≅<2

Blank 4:

We know, <1≅<3 and <3≅<2 using transitive property (A≅B and B≅C then A≅C)

So, <1 ≅ <2 is due to transitive property of convergence

Blank 4: Transitive property of convergence

Blank 5:

DC bisects <ADE

A bisect is an line or angle that divides into exactly two parts.

So, Blank 5: Definition of Bisect

Keywords: parallelogram, bisection

What is the equation for this math problem? Steven spent $90 on clothes. He bought a pair of jeans that cost $34 and spent the r
dexar [7]

Answer:

The equation for the given maths problem is $ 34 + $ 8x = $ 90  

Step-by-step explanation:

According to question :

The Total amount spent on  cloths = $ 90

The cost of a pair of jeans  = $ 34

The cost of each t-shirt pair = $ 8

The amount spent on t-shirt = $ 90 - $ 34 = $ 56

Let the number of t-shirt pair = x

So, $ 34 + $ 8x = $ 90

Or,  $ 8x = $ 90 - $ 34

∴         x = \frac{ 90 -  34}{8}

Hence The equation for the given maths problem is $ 34 + $ 8x = $ 90  Answer
