Answer: QE = 10

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, it's important to understand that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

This means that E is the midpoint of diagonal SQ.

So we can setup the equation x² + 9x = 4x + 6.

To solve this polynomial equation, set it equal to zero first.

So we have x² + 5x - 6 = 0 and we get (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0

when we factor the left side of the equation.

So this means that x = -6 or x = 1.

However, -6 will give us a negative length when we plug it in

to find QE so this will not work.

However, plugging 1 in will give us 10 as a length so QE = 10.

Question

Vlada [557]

Answer:

(-6,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You started at (-4,2) The first number in the ordered pair moves the number left and right and the second number moved the point up and down.

We are first told to move the point 2 units to the left. -4 is my left right number. If I am at -4 and I go to unites to the left, I will be at -6. My new point is now (-6,2). Next we are told to go up 2. The 2 number in my ordered pair tells me that I am 2 above the x axis. Now I am going to go two more units up. I am now at 4, so my new ordered pair after the translation is (-6,4)

The areas of two similar triangles are 75m2 and 300m2. The length of one of the sides of the second triangles is 9m. What is the

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

4.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of two similar triangles are 75 m2 and 300 m2. This gives you the scale factor of the triangles:

$\dfrac{A_{small}}{A_{large}}=k^2\Rightarrow k^2 =\dfrac{75}{300}=\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{1}{4}\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2}.$

Then you can find the length of the corresponding side:

$\dfrac{side_{small}}{side_{large}}=k\Rightarrow =\dfrac{side_{small}}{9}=\dfrac{1}{2},\ side_{small}=\dfrac{9}{2}=4.5\ m.$

An 18 ounce box of cereal costs $2.76. How many ounces should a box priced at $2.07 contain?

Darya [45]

First you find the unit rate. (Divide 2.76 by 18)
You will find out that each ounce costs $0.15

Then divide 2.07 by 0.15.

The answer is 13.8 ounces.
