The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 3x−7. The perimeter of the triangle is 77. Find x.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: x=13


Step 1: Define isosceles triangle

In an isosceles triangle, two sides and angles are equal. The equal sides will be the legs.

Step 2: Write an equation

To write an equation we must first consider the information discussed in step 1. Since we know that the legs will be equal, we will add that to the equation twice. The base and legs will be on one side of the equation, and the perimeter will be on the other. Now we can write the equation!

x+3x-7+3x-7=77

Step 3: Combine like terms

Like terms are terms that share the same variable, or lack of. Let’s add/subtract these now.

x+3x-7+3x-7=77
7x-14=77

Step 4: Solve for x

Let’s do the last part of the equation and solve for x, our final answer.

*Rewrite equation*
7x-14=77
*Add 14 to both sides*
7x=91
*Divide 7 on both sides*
x=13

This is your answer. Hope this helps! Comment below for more questions.

Ryan is cleaning out his room. His sister gives him 4 boxes of books to put with the 3 books he already had. When he finishes cleaning he discovers he now has 35 books on his shelves. How many books were in each box? Write an algebraic expression to represent this problem then solve.

Answers

Answer:

8 books were in each box

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Assume X is the Number of Books In Each Box.

We have, 4 boxes With the Same Number of Books In each Box,Thus Total Book in all box is 4X.And, 3 books Ryan Already Put In Shelves.Now, Total Number Of Book After Cleaning is 35 Books.

Algebraic Expression,

4X + 3 = 35

4X = 35 - 3

4X = 32  ⇔  X=8 books in Each Box.

Answer:

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 0 (since the stone is starting from rest).

Final velocity = 32 m/s

Acceleration = g = 10 m/s²

Time = 3.2 seconds

To show that the speed of the stone when it hits the ground is 32 m/s, we would use the first equation of motion;

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Where;

V is the final velocity. U is the initial velocity. a is the acceleration. t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] 32 = 0 + 10*3.2[/tex]

[tex] 32 = 0 + 32 [/tex]

[tex] 32 = 32 [/tex]

Proven: 32 m/s = 32 m/s

Answer:

f(x) = 4*e^(0.05*x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation for the graph.

The first thing we can see, is that, as the value of x increases, also does the value of y.

So f(x) increases as x increases.

Then we can discard the options with negative exponents, as those decrease when x increases.

Then the remaining options are:

f(x) = 4*e^(0.05*x)

f(x) = 4*e^(0.5*x)

In the graph, we can see that:

f(5) ≈ 5

So let's check that with the two remaining options:

For the first one we have:

f(5) = 4*e^(0.05*5) = 5.13

While for the second option we have:

f(5) = 4*e^(0.5*5) = 48.73

Then the correct option is the first one:

f(x) = 4*e^(0.05*x)

A class of 40 pupils voted for their favourite flavour of ice cream. 3/4 of the pupils voted for chocolate, 1/10 of the remaining pupils voted for vanilla and the rest for strawberry. How many voted for strawberry?

Answers

Answer:

6 students

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 = chocolate

1/10 = vanilla

3/4 = 30/40

1/10 = 4/10

30+4=34

40-34 = 6

6 = the number of students that voted for strawberry

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide each side by 4

4/4 ( 2.5) ^x = 4/4

( 2.5) ^x = 1

Take the log of each side

log  ( 2.5) ^x =  log (1)

x log ( 2.5) = log 1

x log (2.5) = 0

Divide each side by log (2.5)

x = 0

Answer:

B=112

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle B is on the same line as angle A(68). They would need to combine for a total of 180 degrees. So 68-180=112

Answer:

b = 112°

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles from a straight line. so, they add to 180° .

b + 68° = 180°

subtract 68° from each side

b + 68° - 68° = 180° - 68°

b = 112°

Number one is a=4
step by step explanation:
Inverse operation of addition is subtraction.

a+5=9
-5 -5
a= 4
First thing you want to do is isolate “a”so you have to subtract 5 from both sides of the equation so you can be left with x alone. That will give you a=4

Number 2: is y=16

y - 4 =12
+ 4 +4
y= 16

In this equation the inverse operation of subtraction is addition. So instead of subtracting 4 by both sides of the equation like we did in number one… you will add 4 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the 4 and have “y” by it self.

Cos (2a) [tg (2a) - tg (a)] = tg (a) Es de identidades trigonométricas y realmente no entiendo ¿me ayudan?

Answers

Answer:

Se garantiza que [tex]\cos 2\alpha \cdot (\tan 2\alpha - \tan \alpha) = \tan \alpha[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

A continuación, vamos a emplear las siguientes identidades trigonométricas:

[tex]\cos 2\alpha = \cos^{2} \alpha - \sin^{2}\alpha[/tex] (1)

[tex]\tan 2\alpha = \frac{2\cdot \tan \alpha}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha}[/tex] (2)

Ahora aplicamos estas identidades a la identidad descrita en el enunciado:

[tex]\cos 2\alpha \cdot (\tan 2\alpha - \tan \alpha) = \tan \alpha[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha - \sin^{2}\alpha)\cdot \left(\frac{2\cdot \tan \alpha}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha} - \tan \alpha \right) = \tan \alpha[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha -\sin^{2}\alpha) \cdot \left[\frac{2- (1-\tan^{2}\alpha)}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha} \right]\cdot \tan\alpha = \tan \alpha[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha - \sin^{2}\alpha) \cdot \left[\frac{1+\tan^{2}\alpha}{1-\tan^{2}\alpha} \right] = 1[/tex]

[tex](\cos^{2}\alpha -\sin^{2}\alpha)\cdot (1 + \tan^{2}\alpha) = 1 - \tan^{2}\alpha[/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}\alpha \cdot (1-\tan^{2}\alpha)\cdot (1 + \tan^{2}\alpha) = (1-\tan^{2}\alpha)[/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}\alpha \cdot (1+\tan^{2}\alpha) = 1[/tex]

[tex]\cos^{2}\alpha\cdot \sec^{2}\alpha = 1[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1[/tex]

Por tanto, se garantiza que [tex]\cos 2\alpha \cdot (\tan 2\alpha - \tan \alpha) = \tan \alpha[/tex].

. In an enlargement with scale factor 2, which of the following statements is not true?
A. Each length is multiplied by 2
B. Each angle remains the same
C. The shape of the figure does not change.
D. The size of the figure does not change

Answers

Answer:

option B , C , D

Step-by-step explanation:

Enlargemet is a rule which transfers an object into an object of the same form by enlarging its size in a given ration.

Remember

If k > 1 , the given object is enlarged. Since the scale fator (k) is 2 and it is greater than 1 the size of the figure enlarges . So according to this definition option B , c and d are incorrect.

only option A satisfies . So out of all these statements only option A is true.

formula :

(x , y) = (kx , ky)   ( k means scale factor)

here scale factor is multiplied to the coordinate x and y.

since the scale factor is 2 it means that the length or the value of both x and y coordinate is multiplied by 2.So, it is true . And rest are not true.
