Answer 2

Given,

ABCD is a parallelogram

Perimeter = 46 cm

AB = 15cm

CD = (2x-5)

AD = (3y+2)

To find,

Value of x & y

Solution,

DC=AB (Parallel sides of the parallelogram)

2x - 5 = 15

2x = 15 + 5

2x = 20

x = 10

The perimeter of parallelogram = 2 (AD + AB)

46 = 2 (15 + 3y + 2)

46 = 2 (17 +3y)

17 + 3y = 23

3y = 23 - 17

3y = 6

y = 2

Hence the value of x = 10 and y = 2
