Question

Find the values of x and y that make each quadrilateral a parallelogram. Show your work.

Answer 1

Explanation:

A. to make the quadrilateral a parallelogram, we have:

7y + 5 = 8y - 4

112 = 10x - 8

<=> y = 5 + 4

120 = 10x

<=> x = 12

y = 9

B.we have:

17 = 4x + 5

63 = 8y - 1

<=> 12 = 4x

64 = 8y

<=> x = 3

y = 8
