Write an algebraic expression that represents each purchase.
1 answer:
Answer: Both answers will be
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Cost of soccer balls = $15
Cost of baseball = $6
Cost of sweat socks = $5
a) Mr. Tonkery bought x number of soccer balls and 3 base balls .
So, our algebraic expression will be
b) Dennis, Eddie and Felix are on a base ball team. They each bought a baseball and x pair of sweat socks .
Since there are 3 members in a base ball team ,
Number of base ball they will purchase is given by
Number of sweat socks they will bought is given by
Total number they will purchase is given by
Hence, both answers will be

Answer: 76 ft2
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2 side length +base length
40 = 2s +12
Solving for s:
40-12 =2s
28 =2s
28/2=s
14ft =side
Since the line which bisects and isosceles triangles is at a right angle to the base we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height (see attachment)
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
Where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle (in this case 14) and a and b are the other sides. (Base divided by 2 is one side, the other side is the height)
Replacing with the values given:
14^2= 6^2 + x^2
196 = 36 + x^2
196-36 = x^2
160 = x^2
√160 = x
x = 12.64 (height)
Area of an isosceles triangle = 1/2 x base x height
A = 1/2 x 12 x 12.64 = 76 ft2
