Question

I WILL GIVE A MEDAL TO WHOEVER HELPS ME!
In a quadrilateral MNOP the length of side MN is (6x - 7) units and the length of side ON is (4x + 9) units. What value of x will make it a rhombus?

Answer 1

MN = ON

Answer 2

A rhombus has all sidws equal.
so, you make an equation using MN=ON
then solve for 'x'

Answer 3

*sides

Answer 4

Thank you :)

Answer 5

welcome ^_^
by the way, what value of 'x' you got ?? just to verify.

Answer 6

I'm about to solve the equations (: Give me a couple minutes ? :p

Answer 7

equation *

Answer 8

sure, take your time :)

Answer 9

I got x=2

Answer 10

thats is not correct.
can you please show your work, so that i can find the error.... ?

Answer 11

I did it on my scientific calculator :( May you set up the equation for me and walk me through it ?

Answer 12

sure, MN=ON will give you.
6x-7 = 4x+9 , right ?
now add 7 on both sides, what you get ?

Answer 13

18 ?

Answer 14

18 ? how ?
what is 9+7=... ?

Answer 15

I miscounted :( Sorry . It's 16

Answer 16

correct.
so you have 6x=4x+16.
now subtract 4x from both sides, what you get ??

Answer 17

2 ?

Answer 18

2 what ?

Answer 19

2x

Answer 20

right, so now you have
2x = 16
just divide 2 on both sides and you'll get the value of x.

Answer 21

The answer is 8

Answer 22

x=8 is \[\checkmark\]
