The answer is: 36

Because, bisecting the base of the triangle gives of two segments of five. This forms two triangles with base of 5 and altitude (in this case height) of 12. There exists a special pythagorean triplet triangled named 5-12-13 meaning if you have a right triangle with two of these sides then the unknown side is the number left out. In this case, the altitude forms a right angle on the base which allows the sides of the big isocs. triangle to be 13 giving us 13 + 13 + 10 to be the perimeter = 36.

A blue whale calf weighed 2725 kilograms at birth. A blue whale calf gains 90 kilograms of weight each day for the first 240 day
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:the weight after 225 days is

22885 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial weight of the blue whale calf at birth is 2725 kilograms. blue whale calf gains 90 kilograms of weight each day for the first 240 days after its birth. The weight increases in arithmetic progression. This means that the first term of the sequence, a is 2725, the common difference, d is 90.

The formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

n is the number of terms of the sequence.

a is the first term

d is the common difference

We want to determine its weight, T225 after 225 days after it’s birth. It means that n = 225

Therefore

T225 = 2725 + (225 - 1)90

T225 = 2725 + 224×90 = 2725 + 20160

T225 = 22885

What is the missing constant term in the perfect square that starts with x^2-20xx 2 −20xx, squared, minus, 20, x ?
tangare [24]

Answer:

Missing constant: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

perfect square  (a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2

In this case

20x = 2 * x * 10

and

10^2 = 100

so

(x - 10)^2 = x^2 - 20x + 100

Explain why the equation (x-4)2-28=8
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

x=10 or x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

add 28 to both sides

(x-4)^2=36

sqrt both sides

remember to get positive and negative roots

x-4=+/-6

add 4 to both sides

x=4+/-6

x=4+6 or x=4-6
