A quadrilateral is shown. One pair of opposite sides have lengths of 10 inches and (x + 2) inches. The other pair of opposite si

des have lengths (x + 5) inches and (2 x minus 3) inches. Based on the measures shown, could the figure be a parallelogram? 1.Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure 10 in., and the other pair could measure 13 in. 2.Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure 10 in., and the other pair could measure 8 in. 3.No, there are three different values for x when each expression is set equal to 10. 4.No, the value of x that makes one pair of sides congruent does not make the other pair of sides congruent.

Answer:

  • 1. Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure 10 in., and the other pair could measure 13 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The opposite pairs are:</u>

1)

  • 10 in with x + 2 in
  • It makes:
  • x =+2 = 10 ⇒ x = 8 and both sides 10 in

2)

x + 5 with 2x - 3

<u>It makes:</u>

  • 2x - 3 = x + 5
  • 2x - x = 5 + 3
  • x = 8

<u>The sides are:</u>

  • 8 + 5 = 13 and
  • 2*8 - 5 = 13 in

Correct answer choice is 1)

Sides given by

  • 10
  • x+2
  • x+5
  • 2x+3

Opposite sides must be equal

Let's check once

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x+5=2x+3\implies x=2

Find sides now

  • 10in
  • 2+2=4in
  • 2+5=7in
  • 2(2)+3=4+3=7in

One pair of opposite sides are equal but others not .

ki77a [65]

Answer:

Since in this option the minute is paid at $0.40, the best option is 10 minutes for $ 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since four friends, Abe, Bob, Carl, and Darrel, are going to a fun park, and they want to ride go-karts, and the price to ride the go-karts is $ 2.15 for 5 minutes, $ 4.00 for 10 minutes, or $ 6.75 for 15 minutes, to determine which price is the best deal, the following calculations must be performed:

2.15 / 5 = 0.43

4/10 = 0.40

6.75 / 15 = 0.45

Therefore, since in this option the minute is paid at $ 0.40, the best option is 10 minutes for $ 4.

Daniel is working two summer jobs, making $8 per hour babysitting and making $15 per hour lifeguarding. In a given week, he can
natima [27]
If he makes $8 per hour while babysitting, then if he works 3 hours - then he’d get $24 for babysitting.

He still has to make $176.
He can work 18 hours, if he uses up 3 hours babysitting, he has 15 hours left.

15 hours times $15 = 225 (too much)
12 hours times $15 = $180 ( he saves three hours)

He has to do 12 hours of life guarding to meet his goal - he will have three spare hours.

Sorry if I’m wrong, I think I’m right tho

A taxi charges a pick-up fee p!us a charge per mile. Maria paid $15.00 for a 7 mile rode. To my paid $19.50 for a 10 mile ride.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The y-intercept in coordinate form is (0, 4.5) and represents the taxi pick-up fee.  The equation is y=1.5x + 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking for the slope and y-intercept of a linear equation.  A linear equation makes a straight line based on a constant rate of change.  For this problem, the cost per mile is the slope, while the independent variable 'x' is the number of miles and the dependent variable 'y' is the total cost.  In order to first find slope, you need to use the two points given (7, 15) and (10, 19.5) to set up a change in y / change in x, or (19.5-15)/(10-7) or 4.5/3 which is 1.5.  So the slope, or cost per mile is $1.50.  To find the y-intercept (b), or the cost of the pick-up fee, simply fill in your equation y=1.5x + b with your other variables and solve for 'b'.  So, 15 = (1.5 x7) + b.  or 15 = 10.5 +b, subtract 10.5 from both sides of the equation to get b=4.5.
