A formula you can use to solve this problem is:

2x + (2x-7) = 17

The first 2x represents the two sides that have the same length, the (2x-7) represents the side that is 7m less than twice the common length, which altogether equal 17m, the perimeter.

From there, solve for x:
2x + (2x-7) = 17
4x - 7 = 17
4x = 24
x = 6

So two sides are 6m. The third side's length can be determined with 2x-7, so it is 5m.

As of 7 being one side, subtract it with the whole...
When you subtract you get 10
Divide by 2 (or subtract 5)

So the two other sides of the triangle is 5m

What is gif of 18 and 24
babunello [35]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean GCF, greatest common factor.

First, write the prime factorizations for each:

18 = 2¹ × 3²

24 = 2³ × 3¹

Next, find what they have in common.  Both have a factor of 2¹ and 3¹.

GCF = 2¹ × 3¹

GCF = 6

The greatest common factor is 6.

Mrs. avery is going to randomly select one student from her class to read a poem out loud. there are 151515 boys and 131313 girl
arlik [135]
P(boy) is asking for the probability that a boy will be chosen to read a poem out loud. Since there are 15 boys, we can get the probability by dividing this with the total number of students. This is because out of all the students, there is an equal possibility that each of the 15 boys will be chosen.

\frac{15}{15+13}= \frac{15}{28}=0.5357

ANSWER: The probability that a boy is selected is 0.5357 or 53.57%

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

option A

(1.5,1.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equations

Equation 1

y = √x

Equation 2

y = x²- 1

Equate both equations

√x = x²- 1

<h3>1 method </h3><h3>by plotting graph</h3>

We can see from the graph that both meets when x =  1.5 and y = 1.2

<h3>2 method </h3>

we can plug the options given one by one to see which points satisfy

one thing we know is that x ≠ any negative value since

y = √x and square root of negative value is not possible

so option b and c are rejected

  option A

√1.5 = y = 1.2

1.5²- 1 = y = 1.2
