Answer:
7.5 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the large ∆:
Dimensions of the small ∆:
Difference between the area of the large and the small ∆ = 13.5 - 6 = 7.5 cm²
Whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other.
Try to get all the x values and regular values together.
To do that, just subtract both sides by 6x to cancel it out on one side and subtract it from the other side:
6x-6x+32=-2x-6x
=
32=-8x
now divide both sides by -8 to get the x by itself
32/-8=-8/-8x
= 32/-8=x
-4=x
so your answer is: x= -4
A paln1 charges $0.35 per minute with no monthly fee (not sure )
Answer:
x
Step-by-step explanation:
X = measure of each of the legs
"perimeter is 8 more than 2 times one of the legs" ---> P = 2x+8
P = 28 is the given perimeter
So,
P = 2x+8
28 = 2x+8
2x+8 = 28
2x = 20
x = 10
If x = 10, then the two legs add up to x+x = 10+10 = 20
Leaving P-20 = 28-20 = 8 inches left over for the base
You have the correct answer (choice D, 8 inches) though your steps are a bit confusing at some parts. Such as the part where you wrote 2x = 10 twice. I think I know what you were trying to say.
