If ON=8x-8, LM=7x+4, NM=x-5, and OL=3y-6,

find the values of x and y for which LMNO must
be a parallelogram.
{O is on the left, N is on top right, L is on bottom left
and M is on bottom right}

Thank You :)

For a parallelogram, opposite sides must be equal.

ON = LM
8x-8 = 7x+4
x = 12

OL = NM
3y-6 = x-5
3y-6 = 12-5 = 7
3y = 13
y = 13/3
Maths
Don't put the =7 just a typo
YO HOW IS 12-5 = 13? LIKE THE HECK ITS 7
The answers are correct so 3y-6=12-5 so 12-5 is 7. But you have to subtract 6 from 3y-6 so you have to add 6 to (12-5),which is 7, so 7+5=13. That’s how they got 13.
oops in the last sentence it’s supposed to say 7+6=13 typo!
Y'all are so confusing lol so what is the answer?
