Question

value: 2
what equation would you set up to solve for x?
o a. 5x - 8 = 3x
o b. 5x - 8 = 2x + 10
o c. 2x + 10 =3x
o d. 2x + 10 + 3x = 5x - 8

Explanation:

Step1: Recall property of parallelogram diagonals

In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. So the two - segments of the same diagonal are equal.

Step2: Identify equal segments

Here, the segments of one of the diagonals are \(2x + 10\) and \(3x\). Since the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, we set up the equation based on the equality of these two segments.

Answer:

C. \(2x + 10=3x\)
