For the parallelogram shown AB=2x+4 and CD =6x-3 determine the value of x
For a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal in length. Therefore, AB is equal in length to CD.
Given that AB = 2x + 4 and CD = 6x - 3, we can set them equal to each other:
2x + 4 = 6x - 3
Subtract 2x from both sides:
4 = 4x - 3
Add 3 to both sides:
7 = 4x
Divide by 4 on both sides to solve for x:
x = 7/4
Therefore, the value of x is 7/4.
