Option C:

The name of the figure is rhombus, because it has four sides of equal length and opposite sides that are parallel.

Solution:

In the given figure, all sides are equal and they are parallel to opposite side.

To find which name is suitable for the figure.

Trapezoid:

Trapezoid have two non-parallel sides and two parallel sides.
Four sides of trapezoid are not equal in length.

Therefore option A and option B are not true.

Rhombus:

Rhombus have four equal sides and opposite sides are parallel.
But all angles are not right angles.

Therefore Option D is not true.

Option C is the correct answer.

The name of the figure is rhombus, because it has four sides of equal length and opposite sides that are parallel.

Solve the inequality for u. . Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

u ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality

15 ≤ 39 - 6u

Subtract 39 from both sides, we get

15 - 39 ≤ 39 - 6u - 39

-24 ≤ -6u

Dividing both sides by -6, we get

4 ≥ u [Remember, when we divide by negative, the direction of

the inequality changes]

Which is u ≤ 4.

Thank you.

How much sugar syrup would you get by Making 5% sugar syrup using 6g sugar?

kherson [118]

Answer: 120 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of sugar syrup made by 5% sugar syrup using 6g sugar.

Also, 5% =0.05

Therefore, 5% sugar syrup =5% of x = 0.05x

According to the question, we have

$0.05x=6\\\text{Divide 0.05 on the both sides we get}\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{6}{0.05}\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{600}{5}\\\Rightarrow\ x=120$

Hence, 120 grams sugar syrup is made by 5% sugar syrup of 6g sugar.
