The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 4x -3. The perimeter of the triangle is 66. Find x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is isosceles then the 2 legs are congruent.

Given the perimeter is 66, then sum the 3 sides and equate to 66, that is

x + 4x - 3 + 4x - 3 = 66 , that is

9x - 6 = 66 ( add 6 to both sides )

9x = 72 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 8

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

11x^2 + x^2 = (4x + 8)(3x - 3)12x^2 = 12x^2 + 24x - 12x - 2412x - 24 = 012x = 24x = 2

b)

x/3 - x/9 = 63x/9 - x/9 = 62x/9 = 62x = 54x = 27

c)

6^(x + 9) = 36^x6^(x + 9) = 6^(2x)x + 9 = 2x 2x - x = 9x = 9

d)

4/9 + 1/a = 2/31/a = 2/3 - 4/91/a = 6/9 - 4/91/a = 2/9a = 9/2

e)

√x + 3 = 6x + 3 = 6^2x = 36 - 3x = 33

f)

1.2m - 0.2 = 3.8 + m

1.2m - m = 3.8 + 0.20.2m = 4m = 4/0.2m = 20

g)

(x + 12)^2 = 9x + 12 = ± 3x = ± 3 - 12x = - 9, x = - 15

Luis has a pyramid shaped plant pot. It has a square base with a side length of 36 cm, and the height of the pot is 36 cm. Luis wants to fill the pot with soil so that the soil takes up 75% of the pot's volume. How far up the pot will the soil reach?

Answers

Answer:

The required volume, if he wants to fill 75% of the pot's volume, is 11664cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is given as

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times A \times h[/tex]

Where V is the pot's volume, A is the base area and h is the height.

Our base is a square, so the base area, if s denotes the side length, would be s x s.

s = 36cm, therefore we have A = 36cm X 36cm = 1296cm².

The height is given as 36cm, therefore we have our volume to be:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times 1296cm^2 \times 36cm[/tex]

[tex]V = 15552cm^3[/tex]

Since Luis wants to fill 75% of the pot's volume with soil. Then it will take

[tex]\frac{75}{100} \times 15552cm^3 = 11664cm^3 [/tex]

Thus, the required volume, if he wants to fill 75% of the pot's volume, is 11664cm³

Answers

Given:

Scale factor is [tex]\dfrac{1}{144}[/tex].

Length of wingspan of the airplane = 1152 inches

To find:

The length of wingspan of the model airplane.

Solution:

Scale factor is [tex]\dfrac{1}{144}[/tex]. It means,

1 inches of airplane [tex]=\dfrac{1}{144}[/tex] inches of model airplane.

1152 inches of airplane [tex]=1152\times \dfrac{1}{144}[/tex] inches of model airplane

                                       [tex]=8[/tex] inches of model airplane

Therefore, the length of wingspan of the model airplane is 8 inches.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 10 are 1, 2, 5, and 10. You can also look at this the other way around: if you can multiply two whole numbers to create a third number, those two numbers are factors of the third. 2 x 5 = 10, so 2 and 5 are factors of 10. 1 x 10 = 10, so 1 and 10 are also factors of 10.

Answer:

$225 = $15 a + $ 10 c

Given,

Total price = $225

Cost of concert ticket for adults= $15

Cost of concert ticket for children = $10

System of equation to represent scenario

a is variable for adult

c is variable for children

Now,

Total price =  $15 a + $ 10 c

$225 = $15 a + $ 10 c

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation you need to isolate the variable.

First, add 71 to both sides

-13x-71+71=201+71

-13x=272

Then, divide both sides by -13

-13x/-13=272/-13

So, x=272/-13 or −20.923
