Step-by-step explanation:
the distance of a vertex on the 2 outgoing sides to the touching points with the inscribed circle is the same for both sides.
and that applies to all 3 vertexes.
so, we know for the top left vertex the distance to both touching points is 4.
that means the distance to the touching points from the bottom left vertex is 7-4 = 3.
and that means that the distance to the touching points from the bottom right vertex is 16-3 = 13.
so, x = 13
it is the distance to one of the touching points for the bottom right vertex.
and the perimeter of the triangle is therefore
7 + 16 + (13 + 4) = 40
Answer:
x^2 + x-72=0
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x+1) =72
Distribute
x^2 +x = 72
Subtract 72 from each side
x^2 +x - 72 = 0
Now this is the equation we can factor
If anything is not clear, just ask me.
<span>32*18=576 oz. </span>
<span>Store A offers 24-12 oz cans for $5.89. That means $5.89 gets you 288 oz. Store B offers 12-12oz cans for $3.79, so that means $3.79 gets you 144oz. </span>
<span>Store A is $5.89 per every 288 oz. You need 576 oz, which is double that. That means it will cost you twice as much as it would buying 24-12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$5.89*2=$11.78 </span>
<span>Store B is $3.79 for 144 oz. As previously stated, you need 576 oz, so you'll need to buy 4 12-packs of 12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$3.79*4=15.16 </span>
<span>So not only is Store A a better deal, but they'll save you $15.16-$11.78=$3.38 dollars. </span>
