Answer:

x = 5.25 and it is an isosceles triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a figure it the measure of all its sides added up.

Therefore RS+RT+ST=32

By substitution:

(x+7)+(2x-3)+(x+7)=32

Combine like terms and add:

4x+11=32

Subtract 11

4x=21

Divide 4

x=5.25

After substituting the value back in, we get that RS=12.25, RT=7.5, and ST=12.25

In an isosceles triangle, two sides have the same measure.

x = 5.25 and it is an isosceles triangle.

What is 1/5 × -3/2 +4/5 × -2/7 × -1/6 × -2/7
velikii [3]

Answer:

\frac{-457}{1470}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{5} \times \frac{-3}{2} + \frac{4}{5} \times \frac{-2}{7} \times \frac{-1}{6} \times \frac{-2}{7}

(\frac{1}{5} \times \frac{-3}{2}) + (\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{-2}{7} \times \frac{-1}{6} \times \frac{-2}{7})

\frac{-3}{10} +\frac{-16}{1470}

=\frac{-457}{1470}

1. Using the exponent rule (a^b)·(a^c) = a^(b+c) ...

\left(-2x^3y^4\right)\left(5x^9y^{-2}\right)=(-2)(5)\left(x^{(3+9)}y^{(4-2)}\right)\\\\=-10x^{12}y^{2}

Simplify. Write in Scientific Notation

2. You know that 256 = 2.56·100 = 2.56·10². After that, we use the same rule for exponents as above.

8 \left(32\times 10^{11}\right)=(8)(32)\times 10^{11}=256\times 10^{11}=2.56\times 10^{13}

3. The distributive property is useful for this.

(3x – 1)(5x + 4) = (3x)(5x + 4) – 1(5x + 4)

... = 15x² +12x – 5x –4

... = 15x² +7x -4

4. Look for factors of 8·(-3) = -24 that add to give 2, the x-coefficient.

-24 = -1×24 = -2×12 = -3×8 = -4×6

The last pair of factors adds to give 2. Now we can write

... (8x -4)(8x +6)/8 . . . . . where each of the instances of 8 is an instance of the coefficient of x² in the original expression. Factoring 4 from the first factor and 2 from the second factor gives

... (2x -1)(4x +3) . . . . . the factorization you require
