P = s + (s + 5) + (s + 5) This represents the two sides that are 5 inches longer than the base (s + 5) and the base (s).
Simplifying.
100 = 3s + 10
subtract 10 from both sides
90 = 3s
divide both sides by 3
30 = s
base = 30
sides = 35
CHECK 30 + 35 + 35 = 100
Answer:
Hey there!
For the first question we use the triangle area formula: 1/2bh, or 1/2(8)(5). This gives us 20 for the area.
For the second question we get a trapezoid, since the cross section does not pass through the vertex.
Hope this helps :)
It would be 7x10^-2
That number would be rounded to 0.07
Answer:
A. 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that AB is parallel to A'B', therefore,
CB/CB' = CA/CA'
CB' = 7
CB = CB' + BB' = 7 + BB'
CA' = 6
CA = CA' + AA' = 6 + 3 = 9
Plug in the values
(7 + BB')/7 = 9/6
(7 + BB')/7 = 3/2
Cross multiply
2(7 + BB') = 7(3)
14 + 2BB' = 21
Subtract 14 from both sides
2BB' = 21 - 14
2BB' = 7
Divide both sides by 2
BB' = 7/2
BB' = 3.5
Answer:
b = 17.55
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + b^2 = 18^2
16 + b^2 = 324
<u>-16 -16</u>
b^2 = 308
square root them
<u>b = 17.55</u>
let me know if it is correct!
