First, you should try to find the sum of the two legs. Because the triangle is isosceles so the legs (b) are equal, than the sum of the two legs:

41*2 ≤ 2b ≤ 43*2 simplified is: 82 ≤ 2b ≤ 86

But we aren't done, for the perimeter also includes the base of the triangle, which is a. Since we already know the sum of the legs, we simply have to add the base (a) to the legs.

Sum of Legs:         82 ≤ 2b ≤ 86

Base:                      26 ≤ a ≤ 28

Perimeter (a+2b):   82+26 ≤ P ≤ 86+28     Which simplified:   108 ≤ P ≤ 114

The formula of this equation would be x_{0}* 1.026^16 = 7,160.06
So from this equation we know that x_{0} =  \frac{7,160.06}{1.026^{16} }
Now we need to find the value of x, we need to multiply x_{0} * 1.026 16 times. Which will bring us to your answer. $4,748.53

The ratio of the number of left-handed batters to the number of right handed batters is 5:8. There are 45 left-handed batters. f
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Answer=15:39

Step1(find the number of right handed batters)

Left-handed batters=45

 5    45
__=___
8      x


Cross multiply
5x=360
divide both sides by 5
x=72
Right-handed batters=72

Step 2 (find the number of total batters)
total batters=45+72=117

Step3 (find the ratio of left handed batters to total batters)

Left-handed batters to total batters= 45/117
45/117 can be shortened to 15/39

Answer=15:39
