Answer 1

x = 4 (again assuming that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram as it appears to be visually).

Answer 2

i do not know what the shape of the quadrilateral is
it does seem
"to scale"

more information is needed

Answer 3

How can x be negative????????? It is length for god's sake.

Answer 4

Please don't argue this point on this particular problem. This problem is giving x as a variable representing length. It can't be negative.

Answer 5

if we assume it's a parallelogram then
3x=12
and 8= 2x
it has to satisfy the other equation also
3x+12=8+2x
can't be satisfied simultaneously

Answer 6

Why does 3x+12 = 8 + 2x??? Who said the diagonals of the parallelogram are equal???

Answer 7

sorry , they aren't equal

Answer 8

Whoops. You are right. 8=2x AND 3x=12

Answer 9

Thank you! It is not my purpose to prove I am right. But, to not confuse the person asking the question.
