Answer:

ABCD is a parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral that has two parallel and equal pairs of opposite sides.

From the given diagram,

Given: AD = BC and AD || BC, then:

i. AB = DC (both pairs of opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent)

ii. <ADC = < BCD and < DAB = < CBA

thus, AD || BC and AB || DC (both pairs of opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel)

iii. < BAC = < DCA (alternate angle property)

iv. Join BD, line AC and BC are the diagonals of the quadrilateral which bisect each other. The two diagonals are at a right angle to each other.

v. <ADC + < BCD + < DAB + < CBA = $360^{0}$ (sum of angles in a quadrilateral equals 4 right angles)

Therefore, ABCD is a parallelogram.

Find the value if x and y

anyanavicka [17]

3x+15x = 180
18x = 180
x = 10

10(x+y) + 3x = 180
10x + 10y + 3x = 180
13x + 10y = 180
13(10) + 10y = 180
130 + 10y = 180
10y = 50
y = 5

Use the coordinate grid to determine the coordinates of point A:

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

A. (fraction negative 1 and 1 over 4, fraction 3 over 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of point A cam be represented as (x, y). That is where point A cam be traced from the x-axis is the value of x, while the y-value is the point we can trace from the y-axis side ways to point A.

So, Point A from the x-axis, we have x = -1¼, and from the y-axis, we have y = 3/4.

Coordinates of point A cam be written as:

(-1¼, ¾).

Can anyone pls Help me in dis pls

Ad libitum [116K]

(-5, 0) and (-1, 0) are the solutions of -2(-x - 3)² + 8 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the solutions of -2(-x - 3)² + 8 = 0.

Solutions are the intersecting points of y = -2(-x - 3)² + 8 and y = 0.

⇒ Solutions are (-5, 0) and (-1, 0)

Step 2: (-5, 0) and (-1, 0) are solutions of -2(-x - 3)² + 8 = 0

Noah wants to put $1,000 in a savings account with a 1.5% annual interest rate. How much more money will he have after one year

NeX [460]

There are two types of interest: Simple interest and compounding interest:

Simple interest: F = P(1+in)
Compounding interest: F = P(1+i)ⁿ

The compounding interest is always bigger than simple interest for a given amount of n time. The effective interest rate is

Effective interest rate = 1.5%/year * 1 yr/12 months = 0.125% per month

Since there are 12 months in 1 year, n= 12. Then i = 0.125/100 = 0.00125

Difference = Compounded Interest - Simple Interest
Difference = P(1+i)ⁿ - P(1+in) = 1000(1+0.00125)¹² - 1000(1+0.00125*12)
Difference = $0.104

You will only have $0.104 more money than the simple interest.
