Explanation:
A drawing may be helpful to see what's going on. Check out the diagram below. This is one way of drawing out the two triangles. The locations of the points don't really matter, and neither does the the orientation of how you rotate things. What does matter is we have the right points connected to form the segments mentioned.
----------
For now, focus on triangle TIP only. In order to have this be isosceles, we must make TP = 5 or TP = 7.
If TP = 5, then it's the same length as TI.
If TP = 7, then it's the same length as PI.
In either case, we have exactly two sides the same length (the other side different) which is what it means for a triangle to be isosceles.
----------
Let's consider triangle TOP. For it to be isosceles, we must have two sides the same length. We already locked in TP to be either 5 or 7 in the previous section above. So there's no way that TP could be 11 units long to match up with PO = 11.
If TP = 5, then OT must also be 5 units long so that triangle TOP is isosceles.
If TP = 7, then OT = 7 for similar reasoning.
Either way, TP only has two choices on what it could be.
----------
In short, we basically just write the first two values given to us to get the two triangles to be isosceles. We can't use TP = 11 as it would make triangle TIP to be scalene (all sides are different lengths).
Answer:
His total gross pay for the week is $588.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
Jarry has a salary of $43 per day and he worked for 4 days.
Thus, the salary of 4 days is:
4 × $43= $172
The average tips is 18% of his total gross food orders.
Last week he had total food orders of $2,312.5. Therefore, the total tips he received is:
Total tips he received is $416.25.
His total gross pay for the week = The salary of 4 days + Total tips he received.
His total gross pay for the week = $172 + $416.25
His total gross pay for the week = $588.25
Hence, his total gross pay for the week is $588.25.
