71) The triangle is isos. so the base angles are congruent

2a+b=5b-3a
5a=4b

The angles of a triangle all add up to 180

180=5a -2b + 2a +b + 5b -3a
180=4a+4b

Substitute 4b with 5a

180=4a+5a
180=9a
a=20

And substitute a into the equation: 5a=4b to solve for b and solve for the measurements of the angles

72) Angles that are supplementary add up to 180

8(y-x)+124=180
9x-2y+124=180

8x-8y=56
(9x-2y=56)4

Use elimination to solve for the variables

8x-8y=56
-(36x-8y=224)
-28x=-168
x=48

Substitute x into the other equation to solve for y and find the measurements of the angles

Set up the equation to find the AREA of the SMALL rectangle with a length of (x) and width (x+7)

Igoryamba

<u>Answer:</u>

<h3>( $x$ ) x ( $x + 7$ ) </h3>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the area of a rectangle, we have to multiply the length with the width.

In the question, the given length is 'x' and the width given is 'x +7'

So, the area would be

( $x$ ) x ( $x + 7$ )

The area = $x^{2} + 7x$

So, the equation to find the area of such a rectangle would be:-

( $x$ ) x ( $x + 7$ )

1. If p(x) = 3x + 4x² - 5x +8, find p(-2).

levacccp [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\small{\underline{\tt{\red{Given}}}}$

$\rightarrow$ p(x) = -2

$\small{\underline{\tt{\green{solution}}}}$

$\rightarrow$ $p(x) = 3x + {4x }^{2} - 5x + 8$

$\rightarrow$ $p( - 2) = 3( - 2) + 4( { - 2}^{2} ) - 5( - 2) + 8$

$\rightarrow$ $p( - 2) = - 6 + 16 + 10 + 8$

$\rightarrow$ $p( - 2) = 10 + 18$

$\rightarrow$ $p( - 2) = 28$

$\small\boxed{p(-2) = 28 }$

Hope it helps
