This is my first time on this app but this question doesn’t look to hard i’m ok at math but not that good at showing my work

Isosceles triangles have to equal sides

and each side is 5 cm greater than the base

you know the perimeter is 46

i would use basic algebra

x = base

46 = 2(x +5) + x

the 2(x +5) is the equal sides

46 = 2(x+5) + x

using distributive property

46 = 2x + 10 + x

add the common variable

46 = 3x + 10

now it’s easy

3x = 46 - 10

3x = 36

x = 36 / 3

x = 12

now that we got x (base)

we know that the equal sides are 5 cm longer than the base

12 + 5 = 17

since there are 2 sides and they are equal they are both 17

so each side of the triangle would be
1. 17 cm
2. 17 cm
3. 12 cm


to check you should be able to add them all together and get 46

17 + 17 + 12 = 46

Lilit [14]
Hey there Ag484p1stit,

Answer:

Rent = 25% x $3,400
         = $850
Left now = $3,400 - $850
               = $2,550
Transportation = 30% x $2,550
                        = $765.
She spends $765 on transportation.

Hope this helps :D

OLEGan [10]
A = P(1+r/12)^12t, where A = amount after two years, P = Initial amount = $1000, r =apr = 4.2% = 0.042, t = period = 2 years

Then,

A = 1000 (1+0.042/12)^12*2 = $1087.47

The force of gravity on Earth is 6 times greater than on the moon. As a result, objects weigh 6 times as much on Earth as they d
DochEvi [55]

Answer: The instrument weigh 204 ounces on Earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Instrument weighed on the moon = 34 pounds

As we know that

The force of gravity on Earth is 6 times greater than on the moon.

So, the weight of instrument on the earth is 6 times the weight on the moon.

Mathematically, it is expressed as

6\times 34\\\\=204\ ounces

Hence, the instrument weigh 204 ounces on Earth.

In the first week of​ July, a record 1,040 people went to the local swimming pool. In the second​ week, 105 fewer people went to
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The percentage of people going to the people in week 4 compared to week 1 decreased by 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Week 1: 1,040 people

Week 2: 105 fewer people

1040 - 105 = 935 people

Week 3: 135 more people

935 + 135 = 1070 people

Week 4: 290 fewer people

1070 - 290 = 780 people

So, there were 260 fewer people, going to the pool in those 4 weeks compared to week 1.

Now, we must find the percentage change.

x/100 = 780/1040

Cross multiply.

1040x = 78000

Divide both sides by 1040 to leave x by itself on one side.

x = 78000/1040

x = 75%

This means only 75% of the total people from week one were going to the pool in week four. Therefore, there was a 25% decrease in the number of people who went to the pool over these four weeks.
