The  length of each congruent side of the isosceles triangle is given to be equal 2.75 inches while the base calculated to be equal to 23.5 inches

<h3>How to solve for the congruent sides</h3>

We first have to define x as the length of the congruent side. The question tells us that the base is 7 inches longer than 3x the length of 2 sides

This would be represented as:

= 3(2x) + 7

= 6x + 7

The perimeter of the shape is said to be 29, hence we would have

x + x + (6x + 7) = 29

= 2x + 6x + 7 = 29

= 8x = 29 - 7

8x = 22

x = 22 / 8

= 2.75

Given the value of x we would have to put it in

6x + 7

= 6 x 2.75 + 7

= 23.5

Therefore the  length of each congruent side of the isosceles triangle is given to be equal 2.75 inches while the base calculated to be equal to 23.5 inches

Complete the equation that represents the total value of the nickels and p pennies
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

<em>Answers below</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation</u>

Let's call:

p = number of pennies Janesa has in her pocket

n = number of nickels Janesa has in her pocket

She has 24 coins in total, thus:

p + n=24\qquad\qquad [1]

Since each penny is worth $0.01 and each nickel is worth $0.05, and Janesa has $1 in total:

0.01p+0.05n=1

Multiplying by 100:

p+5n=100\qquad\qquad [2]

A. Completing the equation:

5n+p=100

B.

From [1]:

p=24-n

Substituting into [2]:

24-n+5n=100

Simplifying:

24+4n=100

Rearranging:

4n=100-24=76

n=76 / 4= 19

p=24-19=5

B. There are 5 pennies in Janesa's pocket

C. Since each penny is worth $0.01, the total value of pennies is 5*$0.01=$0.05

The total value of the pennies is $0.05

D. The total value of the nickels is 19*$0.05 = $0.95

E. Jackson should say she has 19 nickels and 5 pennies

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 6x+4y=-56
alex41 [277]

Answer:

First, put the equation of the line given into slope-intercept form by solving for y. You get y = -2x +5, so the slope is –2. Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the line we want to find is 1/2. Plugging in the point given into the equation y = 1/2x + b and solving for b, we get b = 6.Step-by-step explanation:
