Given that Macy wants to construct an isosceles triangle, with the unique angle being 40° it implies that for the triangle to be isosceles, the base angles should be the same. The size of the base angles will be:
(180-40)/2=70
given that that the base is 6 cm, Macy can only form 1 triangle with these dimensions.
The length of the other sides will be found using sine rule
a/sin A=b/sin B
a=6 cm
A=40°
b=?
B=70
hence:
6/sin 40=b/sin 70
b=(6sin 70)/sin40
b=8.77 cm

Simplify the linear expression
vekshin1

Answer:

\huge\boxed{-\frac{7}{8}a - \frac{1}{6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

This question utilizes combining like terms and common denominators. First you have to convert both terms including "a" to have a denominator of 8. You would do this by multiplying both the numerator, and the denominator by the same value. This value in the case of -\frac{1}{4} a would be 2, and in the case of \frac{2}{3} the value would be 2. This would result in the equation: -\frac{5}{8}a+\frac{4}{6}-\frac{2}{8}a-\frac{5}{6}. Then simply combine like terms to get your final answer.

-(-9)_l-9l is it grater than or less than or eqaul to?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's simplify the left side:

  • - ( -9 )          
  • 9

Remember that the negative sign also means opposite, so the opposite of negative 9 is positive 9.

Let's simplfy the right side:

  • | - 9 |
  • 9

Remember that in an absolute value bracket, any positive value stays positive, but any negative value turns to the positive value.

So the inequality is 9 _ 9

Therefore the sign should be "=" as 9 is equal to 9.

(3a) You spend $72 on tapes and CDs. Each tape costs $8 and each CD costs $12.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

3a. 8t + 12c = 72

3b. t + c = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

number of tapes is t

number of Cds is c

so 8t + 12c = 72

and t + c = 7

so t = 7 - c

replace t = 7 - c in to the first equation

8(7 - c) + 12c = 72

56 - 8c + 12c = 72

4c = 72 - 56 = 16

c = 4

if c = 4, then t = 7 - c = 7 - 4 = 3
