The perimeter = 20 and AC = 8
Now as it is not mentioned which sides are equal of the isosceles triangle ABC,
We have two possible situations.
1)
If AC is the base
In that case AB = BC
Now AC = 8, AB = x , BC = x
So x + x + 8 = 20
2x + 8 = 20
2x = 12
x = 6
AB = BC = 6
2)
IF AC is not the base,
Then
AC = BC or AC = AB
So BC = 8 or AB = 8
If AB = AC = 8
Then
BC + 8 + 8 = 20
BC = 4
So there are two possible lengths of BC
Either it is BC = 8 or BC = 6 or BC = 4
The figure is attached for your reference.
Answer:
x>-2
Step-by-step explanation:
The translated inequality to be solved is -3x<6
You divide -3 by both sides which switches the sign because it is negative, there fore the answer is x>-2.
Answer:
it is store b
Step-by-step explanation:
because you answered your own question
A and B are the correct answers.
Hope this helps.

Let Cynthia's age be C, then Abigail's age A
since Abigail is 8 years older, her age A = C+8.
20 years ago Cynthia's she was C-20 and Abigail was A-20=3(C-20)
A-20=3C-60
A=3C-40
but we just said A=C+8
so 3C-40=C+8
2C=48
C=24
A=24+8=32
Cynthia's age is 24 and Abigail's age is 32
