In order for the triangle to be isosceles, we have to set two lengths of the triangle equal to each other.
Let's take the lengths 5x-12 and x+20 and set them equal to each other.
5x - 12 = x + 20
Combine like terms by moving them over to their respective sides.
Subtract x from both sides of the equation.
4x - 12 = 20
Add 12 to both sides of the equation.
4x = 32
Divide both sides by 4.
x = 8
Check your answer by substituting.
5x - 12 = x + 20
5(8) - 12 = 8 + 20
40 - 12 = 28
28 = 28
Solution: x = 8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Distribute to remove parentheses:
For simplification and clarity, reduce all mixed numbers to simplified common fractions:
Combine like terms:
Add 6/5 to both sides, then add 9/5x to both sides:
Divide both sides by -3/5 to isolate x (recall dividing by a number is equal to multiplying by its reciprocal):
