Answer:

Length of the third side is 18.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. The third side is 7 less than twice the length of one side of the other side.

Let two equal side of the isosceles triangle = x cm

and third side = y cm

Then y = ( 2x - 7 ) --------(1)

Perimeter of the triangle is 44 cm

then x + x + y = 44

2x + y + 44 -----------(2)

Now we substitute the value of y from equation (1) to equation (2)

2x + ( 2x - 7 ) = 44

4x - 7 = 44

4x = 44 + 7

4x = 51

x = \frac{51}{4} = 12.75 cm

Now we put x = 12.75 in equation (1)

y = 2(12.75) - 7

  = ( 25.5 - 7 )

  = ( 18.5 )cm

Therefore, length of third side is ( 18.5 ) cm.

Answer:

d = r * t

r = 50 mph

this will be very easy.

d = r * t

r = 50 mph

t = 5 hours

d = 250 miles

In five hours at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour, you would have traveled 250 miles.t = 5 hours

d = 250 miles

In five hours at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour, you would have traveled 250 miles.
