Answer:
Side a = 35ft
Side b = 35ft
Side c = 20ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the perimeter of a triangle = Side a + Side b + Side c
In an isosceles triangle, 2 sides are equal to each other.
So, Side a = Side b
In the question, we are told that:
The two equal sides are each 5 ft less than twice the length of the third side.
Hence,
a = 2c - 5
b = 2c - 5
P = 90ft
P = a + b + c
90 = 2c - 5 + 2c - 5 + c
Collect like terms
90 = 5c - 10
90 + 10 = 5c
100 = 5c
c = 100/5
c = 20
The length of the third side = 20ft
a = 2c - 5
= 2 × 20 - 5
= 40 - 5
= 35 ft
b =2c - 5
= 2 × 20 - 5
= 40 - 5
= 35 ft
Therefore,
Side a = 35ft
Side b = 35ft
Side c = 20ft
Answer:
Option B. 3/4 > 2/3 is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets look at the options one by one
A. 1/2 < 1/3
This inequality converts into 0.5<0.33 which is false.
B. 3/4 > 2/3
This simplifies to 0.75>0.666 which is true.
C. -1/4 < - 2/3
This converts to -0.25<-0.666 which makes the inequality false.
D. -1 > 3/4
This converts to -1>0.75 which makes the inequality false.
Hence,
Option B. 3/4 > 2/3 is the correct answer.

Answer:
is A. -16
Step-by-step explanation:
9 5/6 - 2 1/3 is 7 1/2.
You could get this answer by finding the same denominator of the fractions. The LCM of both is 6. Multiply the 1 of the second fraction 2 times because you had to multiply the denominator 2 times to get to 6.
You should have 2 2/6.
Now get 9 5/6 - 2 2/6.
The answer is 7 3/6, simplifies into 7 1/2.
9 5/6 - 2 1/3 is 7 1/2.
