This isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length , a, that are longer than the length of the base , b. The perimeter of the

triangle is 15.7 cm. The equation 2a + b = 15.7 models this information. If one of the longer sides is 6.3 cm, which equation can be used to find the length of the base ?

We are give the equation of the perimeter of the triangle as follows:
2a + b = 15.7 
where b represents the base.

Now, if we want to calculate the length of the base, all we have to do is isolate the b in one side of the equation as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2a

We know that a = 6.3 cm, therefore, the length of the base can be calculated as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2(6.3) = 3.1 cm

SoIve the system of equations by elimination. (Addition)<br> 1)-2x + 4y = -22<br> 2x + 8y = –26
Rufina [12.5K]

Answee:

We have these two equations:

-2x +4y =-22

2x + 8y -26

We need to try to get the same number multiplying both x or y, I think we can make the 2 of the first equation negative, for that, we multiply all the equation by -1:

2x + 8y =-26  ---- -2x - 8y =26

Now we have this:

-2x +4y = -22

-2x -8y = 26

Now e substract both equations:

-2x - (-2x) +4y -(-8y) = -22-26

12y = -48

Y = -48/12 = -4

And we replace to get x

-2x + 4y = -22

-2x +4*(-4)=-22

-2x - 16 = -22

x= -6/-2 =3

Solve the variable x. 12yx = 5z
romanna [79]

Answer:

\boxed{\bold{x \ = \ \frac{5z}{12y} }}

Explanation:

  • Solve For X: 12yx = 5z

[ Divide Both Sides By 12y ]

12xy / 12y = 5z / 12y

  • x = 5z / 12y
