SIMPLIFY THE FOLLOWING EXPRESSION

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

-37m+6

Step-by-step explanation:

mkay so when working with simplifying any expressions like that, you wanna start with getting rid of your brackets. To do that, you simply take the number directly outside the bracket and you multiply it by everything inside. Let's take -9(m+2) first. You have to multiply everything inside the bracket by -9, so you have -9*m and -9*2, so you end up with -9m and -18. Now you do that to the second part of the equation (4*6 and 4*-7m) and you end up with 24 and -28m. Now you join all your terms together, and you have -9m-18+24-28m. Now all you do is add like terms (so -9m + -28m and -18+24) and you end up with a simplified expression of -37m+6. I hope this helped a little :)).

Given: ∆ABC, AB = BC, m∠1<90°. Perimeter of ∆ABC = 25. Difference between two sides is 4. Find: AB, BC, AC. Can someone help

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

AB = 7, BC = 7 and AC = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let AB = BC = a and CA = b

Now, given that the perimeter of the triangle is 25.

So, 2a + b = 25 ............ (1)

And 4 is the difference between the two unequal sides.

Hence, b - a = 4 .............. (2)

⇒ 2b - 2a = 8 ........... (3)

Now, solving equations (1) and (3) we get, 3b = 25 + 8 = 33

⇒ b = 11

Hence, from equation (2) we get a = b - 4 = 7

Therefore, AB = 7, BC = 7 and AC = 11 (Answer)
